*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -* - Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-

Why Ramadan is Special: Characteristics and Features – I

Fasting has great merits and beneficial outcomes, which are often
referred to in the Quran and Sunnah )Prophetic tradition(. Allaah The
Almighty enjoined it upon His servants for a month in the year, and
decreed it upon them, just as He decreed it upon those who were before
them. He states )what means(: }O you whohave believed, decreed upon
you is fasting as it was decreed upon those before you that you may
become righteous.{ ]Quran 2:183[
Thus, Allaah The Almighty made the fasting of Ramadan an obligatory
duty, binding upon every male and female Muslim, according to certain
conditions stated in the Quran and the Sunnah. This indicates that it
is an act of worship that people cannot dispense with, due to its
benefits and great consequences,the good it brings about in the souls,
and the power it gives to do right, to abandon what is shameful and
turn away from falsehood.
Allaah The Almighty favors Ramadan with numerous characteristics, one
of which is mentioned in the authentic narration in which the
Messengerof Allaahsaid: "When Ramadan comes, the gates of Paradise are
opened."]Al-Bukhaari[ It is further narratedon the authority of Abu
Hurayrahthat the Messenger of Allaahsaid: "When the month of Ramadan
begins, the gates of heaven are opened, the gates of Hell are closed,
and the devils are chained." It goes without saying that all this
gives glad tidings to the believers of the potential for performing
righteous deeds that lead to Paradise, and the means available to
them, which can helpthem perform and further multiply those deeds.
Besides, of course, Allaah The Almighty strengthens abstinence from
andevasion of sins in Ramadan, Shaytaan )Satan( weakens in his schemes
and fails to achieve his plots.
One of the characteristics of fasting inRamadanis shown in the
narration of both books of authentic Ahaadeeth )narrations( and others
on the authority of Abu Hurayrahthat the Messenger of Allaahsaid:
"He,who observes the fast of Ramadan out of sincere faith,
andexpecting the reward from Allaah, his previous sins would
beforgiven." That is, whoever fasts this month, out of belief in its
being obligatory, expecting the reward for it from his Lord Almighty,
and striving his utmostto follow the Sunnah of His Prophetlet him
receive the glad tidings of forgiveness.
Since the reward of fasting is multiplied immeasurably and the fasting
person receives his reward without reckoning, the deeds of the fasting
person are also multiplied inRamadan, as shown in the Hadeeth of
Salmaanthat the Messenger of Allaahsaid: "Whoever comes near Allaah in
it )Ramadan( with a good act, it is )multiplied as much( as if he has
performed an obligatory duty at any other time;and whoever comes near
Allaah with an obligatory duty in it, it is)multiplied as much( as if
he has performed seventy obligatory duties at any other time." Thus,
both deed and reward are multiplied for the servant in Ramadan: }As
bounty from your Lord. That is the great attainment.{ ]Quran 44:57[
Another characteristic ofRamadanis that the angels beseech Allaah The
Almighty to conceal and erase the sins of the fasting persons. This is
stated in the Hadeeth narrated from the Messenger of Allaahthat he
said, concerning the fasting people: "And the angels continueto seek
the forgiveness of Allaah for them until they break their fast."
]Ahmad on the authority ofAbu Hurayrah[
The angels are pure, honored creatures, entitled to receive the
response of Allaah The Almighty to their supplication, and forgiveness
for those whom they seek forgiveness for, and the servants err again
and again, and need repentance and forgiveness,as shown in the
authentic Qudsi Hadeeth )sacred narration( in which Allaah The
Almighty Says: "O My servants! You commit mistakes during night and
day, and I forgive all sins. So, seek My forgiveness, perchance I
would forgive you."
If a believer seeks forgiveness for himself and this is combined with
the angels seeking forgiveness for him, it is most likely that he will
be awarded thehighest rank. Ramadan is also themonth of consoling and
doing good, and Allaah The Almighty likes those who do good; He has
promised them forgiveness, Paradise, and prosperity. Doing good is the
highest rank of faith, and you need not ask about the position of the
one who is characterized by it in Paradise, and the bliss and various
kinds ofhonor he will receive )as stated by Allaah The Almighty in the
verse )which means(: }Accepting what their Lord has given them.
Indeed, they were, before that, doers of good.{ ]Quran 52:16[
Among the good deeds that are more feasible in this blessed month than
in others is to serve food )to the needy( and providingIftaar for
those who are fasting. These are among the means which help one obtain
forgiveness for one's sins, releasepeople from the Hellfire and
multiply the rewards. These deeds lead to Al-Kawthar, the lake-fount
of the Messenger of Allaahwhich, if one gets a sipthereof, he will
never become thirsty: we ask Allaah The Almighty, by His bounty and
generosity, to cause us to come upon it. Serving food is one of
thecauses that admit one to Paradise, the abode of peace. Ramadan is
an opportunity for Muslims to receive the means of mercy, the factors
that lead to forgiveness, and the requirements of release from
Hellfire. How abundant are the gifts from the Lord, the Generous, the
Forgiver!
