Ramadhan Kareem- way forward to Hasanah-Jannah
"O
you folded in garments! Stand (to prayer) by night, but not all night-
Half of it or a little less, Or a little more, and recite the Quran in
slow, measured rhythmic tones."
(73: 1-4)
"Truly
the rising by night is most potent for governing (the soul), and most
suitable for (framing) the Word (of Prayer and Praise). True, there is
for you by day prolonged occupation with manifold engagement: But keep
in remembrance the name of your Lord and devote yourself to Him
whole-heartedly. (He is) Lord of the East and the West: there is no god
but He: take Him therefore for (your) Disposer of Affairs. And have
patience with what they say, and leave them in noble (dignity). And
leave Me (alone to deal with) those in possession of the good things of
life, who (yet) deny the Truth; and bear with them for a little while."
(73: 6-11)
"Your
Lord does know that you stand forth (to prayer) nigh two-thirds of the
night, or half the night, or a third of the night, so does a party of
those with you. But Allah does appoint night and day in due measure He
knows that you are unable to keep count thereof. So He has turned to you
(in mercy): read you, therefore, of the Quran as much as may be easy
for you. He knows that there are may be (some) among you in ill-health;
others traveling through the land, seeking of Allah's bounty; yet others
fighting in Allah's cause, read you, therefore, as much of the Quran as
may be easy (for you); and establish regular Prayer and give regular
Charity; and loan to Allah a Beautiful Loan. And whatever good you send
forth for your souls you shall find it in Allah's Presence - indeed,
better and greater, in Reward and seek you the Grace of Allah: for Allah
is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.
(73: 20)
"We
have indeed revealed this (Message) in the Night of Power. And what
will explain to you what the Night of Power is? The Night of Power is
better than a thousand Months. Therein come down the angels and the
Spirit by Allah's permission, on every errand. Peace! ... This until the
rise of Morn!"
Al Qadr (The Night of Power) 97: 1-5
p/s let us make our last ten days of Ramadhan a bountiful one, securing our way forward to Jannah... insyaAllah...
