Countdown to Ramadan
A Time for Change
1. Repent
Ramadan is time to purify our hearts through sincere repentance. The Prophet ﷺ, said: “All of the children of Adam are sinners, and the best sinners are those who repent.” (Anas Ibn Malik)
2. Revive
Ramadan is an opportunity for us to revive our hearts and draw closer to our Lord. “Ramadan is the month in which the Quran was revealed, a guidance for mankind and clear proofs for the guidance and the criterion.” 2:185
3. Renew
Ramadan is a chance for us to reflect on our past, improve our present, and plan for our future. By fasting, praying, giving charity, and reading the Quran, we can strengthen our faith and cultivate good habits.
