- The month of Ramadan is the one in which
the Quran was sent down, a guidance for mankind, clear proofs for the
guidance, the Criterion; so whoever amongst you witnesses this month,
let him fast it. (Surah al-Baqarah 2:185)
- Ramadan, a blessed month, has come to
you during which Allah has made it obligatory for you to fast. In it the
gates of Heaven are opened, the gates of al-Jahim are locked, and the
rebellious devils are chained. In it Allah has a night which is better
than a thousand months. He who is deprived of its good has indeed
suffered deprivation. (Hadith - Al-Tirmidhi, Narrated Abu Hurayrah)
- Whoever established prayers on the night
of Qadr out of sincere faith and hoping for a reward from Allah, then
all his previous sins will be forgiven; and whoever fasts in the month
of Ramadan out of sincere faith, and hoping for a reward from Allah,
then all his previous sins will be forgiven. (Hadith - Sahih Bukhari,
Narrated Abu Hurayrah)
