For something so important, we need to PLAN - to get the maximum out
of it. Please see the RAMADAN PLANNERin MS Excel - it consists of 3
forms (on 3 sheets). Take the printouts and fill it up. These forms
are not perfect, and do not claim to encompass every aspect of
Ramadan. Please feel free to modifythem as per your needs.
