PARABLE OF THE ONE LACKING IN RELIGIOUS COMMITMENT

ALLĀH says,

وَلَا تَكُونُواْ كَالَّتِي نَقَضَتْ غَزْلَهَا مِن بَعْدِ قُوَّةٍ أَنكَاثًا
And be not like her who undoes the thread which she has spun, after it has become strong.

By breaking your covenants, like the worst example that is most indicative of the foolishness of the one who breaks his covenant, which is the likeness of the woman who spins a strong thread, then when it has become strong as expected, she undoes it and breaks it into strands, because she got tired of spinning it, then when she undid it she got tired again, so she did not gain anything except frustration, tiredness, foolishness and lack of reasoning. This is like the one who breaks the covenant he made: he is a wrongdoer and a fool who is lacking in religious commitment and dignity.

THE SIX FAST OF SHAWWAL

Abu Ayyub (may ALLĀH be pleased with him) reported:

The Messenger of ALLĀH (ﷺ) said, "He who observes fast in the month of Ramadān, and also observes fast for six days in the month of Shawwal, it is as if he has observed fast for the whole year.'' {Muslim}

{Riyādhus-Saliḥīn: Book 9, Chapter 228, Hadith 1254}

Hafiz Salahudeen Yusuf commented: "According to the formula that there is at least ten-fold reward for every virtue, the fast of one month (Ramadān) are equivalent to fast of ten months. If one also observes six days of fast of Shawwal, they will be equal to fast of two months. Thus, one becomes eligible for the reward of one full years' Saum. He who makes it a permanent feature is like one who observes Saum throughout his life. He will be considered by ALLĀH as one who observes fast permanently.

Although voluntary in nature, they are highly important. One can observe these six-day Saum at a stretch or with intervals, but their observance one after the other at the beginning of the month is better.

Similarly, if a person has missed some fast of Ramadān due to illness, travelling etc., he should first make up the shortfall and then observe the voluntary six-day fast of Shawwal."

📖 Sharḥ Riyādhus-Saliḥīn

GUIDANCE FROM THE HADITH:

1⃣. A good deed is rewarded with ten times as much. So, the fasting of Ramadān is equal to ten months. The six days in Shawwal equal sixty days, namely two months. This adds up to a whole year.

2⃣. It states the promised reward for those who fast the entire Ramadān along with six days in Shawwal even if the six days were not in succession.

Sheikh Ibn Uthaymeen (may ALLĀH have mercy on him)  said,

“It is highly recommended to recite the Eid takbeer during the night of Eid from sunset on the last day Ramadān until the Imam attends and leads the prayer. The prescribed  manner and wording of the takbeer is as follows:

الله أكبر الله أكبر، لا إله إلا الله، الله أكبر الله أكبر ولله الحمد

Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, la ilaha ill-Allah, Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar, wa Lillaahil-Hamd

Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest, none has the right to be worshipped [in truth] but Allah, Allah is the Greatest, Allah is the Greatest, and to Allah belongs all praise.

You can say the first set of Allahu Akbar three times instead of two and this way is permitted too.

Men should raise their voices reciting this rememberance and commemoration of Allah in the marketplaces, mosques and homes, but women should not raise their voices.”

SUMMARIZED RULINGS PERTAINING TO ZAKĀT-UL-FITR

1⃣ What is the ruling of Zakāt-ul-Fitr?

Ibn Baaz (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said: "Zakaatul Fitr is obligatory upon every Muslim whether they be young or old, male or female, free or enslaved." {Al-Fatāwa (14/197)}

2⃣ What can be given out as Zakāt-ul-Fitr?

Ibn Bāz (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said: "A measurement of a Saa' (3 liters) of food like dates, barley, raisins, or anything similar from these types. The correct statement from the scholars is any food from the land of the people that will nourish them like rice, corn and the likes."

3⃣ When can one give out the Zakāt-ul-Fitr?

Ibn Bāz (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said: "One can give the Zakāt-ul-Fitr on the 28th, 29th, 30th (of Ramadān), the night of Eid, or on the morning of Eid before the prayer." {Al-Fatāwa (14/32-33)}

4⃣ Who are the recipients of Zakāt-ul-Fitr?

Ibn Uthaymīn (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said: "There is only one type of recipient and they are the poor and needy." {Al-Fatāwa (18/259)}

5⃣ Is there a specific statement to say or supplication to make when giving out Zakāt-ul-Fitr?

Al-Lajna ad-Daa'imah said: "We do not know of any specific supplication that is said at the time of its distribution." {Fatāwa ad-Daa'imah (9/387)}

6⃣ Is it permissible to give money as Zakāt-ul-Fitr?

Ibn Bāz (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said: "No, it is not permissible to give money as Zakāt-ul-Fitr as is the statement of many scholars. That is because giving money opposes what has been related from the Prophet ﷺ and his Companions (may ALLĀH be pleased with them)." {Al-Fatāwa (14/32)}

7⃣ Does one have to have a certain amount of wealth in order to give Zakāt-ul-Fitr?

Ibn Bāz (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said: "There is no limit for one to reach. Rather, Zakāt-ul-Fitr is obligatory upon every Muslim to give out on behalf of themselves and on behalf of their families from among their children and spouses who live with them." {Al-Fatāwa (14/197)}

8⃣ Is it permissible to distribute Zakāt-ul-Fitr in another land?

Ibn Bāz (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said: "The sunnah is to distribute the Zakātul Fitr to the poor in one's own land they are living in without sending it to another land. This is done to suffice the poor and needy in one's land and attend to their needs." {Al-Fatāwa (14/213)}

9⃣ Does Zakāt-ul-Fitr have to be paid for the fetus?

Ibn Uthaymīn (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said: "It is not an obligation to pay for the fetus in the womb, it is only considered to be highly recommended."
{Al-Fatāwa: (18/263)}

1⃣0⃣ Is it permissible to give Zakāt-ul-Fitr to those who are not Muslims?

Ibn al-Uthaymīn (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said: "It is not permissible to give Zakātul Fitr except to the poor and needy Muslims." {Al-Fataawa (18/285)}

1⃣1⃣ What is the ruling of one who takes Zakāt-ul-Fitr then sells it?

Al-Lajna ad-Daa'imah said: "If one of the poor who is deserving of receiving the Zakātul Fitr takes the Zakāh then sells it then there is nothing wrong with that." {Fatāwa Al-Lajna ad-Daa'imah (9/380)}

1⃣2⃣ Can one delay distributing Zakāt-ul-Fitr until after the Eid prayer without an excuse?

Ibn Uthaymīn (may ALLĀH be pleased with him) said: "It is impermissible to delay distributing Zakāt-ul-Fitr until after the prayer. If one does this then he/she will not be rewarded as one who distributed the Zakāh. Rather, it will be considered as regular charity." {Al-Fatāwa: 18/266}

🌙 ZAKĀT-UL-FITR

Fitr means to break fast or to refrain from fasting. Hence the Eid after the fasts of Ramadān is called Eid-ul-Fitr, as it is the day of rejoicing after the completion of fasting. On this occasion of happiness, as a sign of gratitude, one has to give a specific amount of food in alms, which is called Zakāt-ul-Fitr. To purify and obtain complete blessings for the fasts of Ramadān one has to give Zakāt al-fitr.

It was reported by Ibn Abbās (may ALLĀH be pleased with them) that the Prophet ﷺ made Zakāt-ul-fitr compulsory so that those who fasted may be purified of their idle deeds and shameful talk (committed during Ramadān) and so that the poor may be fed. Whoever gives it before the prayer, it is Zakat-ul-Fitr, and whoever gives it after the prayer, it is ordinary charity. {Abū Dawūd #1609}

Zakāt-ul-Fitr becomes obligatory on every Muslim, male or female, adult or child, at the end of Ramadān as long as he/she has the means to do so, even those who have not fasted during the month of Ramadān for any valid reason.

Ibn ‘Umar (may ALLĀH be pleased with them) said: “The Messenger of ALLĀH ﷺ made giving a saa’ of dates or a saa’ of barley as Zakāt-ul-Fitr an obligation for all Muslims, slave and free, male and female, young and old, and ordered that it should be given before the people went out to pray (Salāt-ul-Eid).” {Al-Bukhari #1503 and Muslim #984}

It is permissible to pay it one or two days before that, because of the report narrated by Ibn 'Umar (may ALLĀH be pleased with them) who said: "The Messenger of ALLĀH (ﷺ) enjoined sadaqat al-fitr in Ramadan."

According to another report, they used to pay it one or two days before the end of Ramadān.

Whoever delays it after its time has sinned, and he has to repent for delaying and give it to the poor.

The scholars of the Standing Committee for Issuing Fatwas (al-Lajnah ad-Dā'imah li'l-Ifta, 9/386) were asked: What is the ruling on someone who was able to give zakat al-fitr but did not?

They replied: "The one who did not give zakat al-fitr must repent to ALLĀH, may HE be glorified and exalted, and ask HIM for forgiveness, because he has sinned by withholding it. He must also give it to those who are entitled to it, although after the Eid prayer it is regarded as ordinary charity."

It should noted that a saa' is approximately equivalent to three kilograms. It is acceptable to give a saa' of the local staple food such as wheat, corn, rice, beans, lentils, chickpeas, foul (fava beans), pasta, meat and so on. etc.

Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymīn (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said: "The correct view is that anything that may be a staple food, whether it is grains, fruit, meat and so on, is acceptable." {Ash-Sharh al-Mumti' (6/183)}

THE REASONS FOR GIVING ZAKĀT-UL-FITR

1⃣. To give Zakāt-ul-Fitr in lieu of the acceptance of one’s fasting.

2⃣. To thank ALLĀH for bestowing on us the strength to fast during the month of Ramadān.

3⃣. To purify one’s fast and obtain the complete blessings of fasting.

4⃣. To celebrate the completion of fasting.

5⃣. To demonstrate the greatness of the day of Eid.

6⃣. To assist the poor in joining the atmosphere of Eid.

THE TWENTY-SEVENTH NIGHT IS HIGHLY PROBABLE TO BE LAYLATUL-QADR.

Ibn 'Umar (may ALLĀH be pleased with them) said: 'The companions of the Prophet ﷺ used to tell him their dreams that (Laylatul-Qadr) was on the 27th of the month of Ramadān.' The Prophet ﷺ said, "I see that your dreams agree on the last ten nights of Ramadān and so whoever is in search of it should seek it in the last ten nights of Ramadān." {Al-Bukhari #1156}

Sheikh al-Albānī (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said: "It is on the twenty-seventh night of Ramadān according to the strongest opinion. A majority of the ahādīth comply with this, including the hadīth of Zurr Ibn Hubaysh who said:

"I heard Ubay Bin Ka'ab (may ALLĀH be pleased with him) say when it was said to him that ‘Abdullāh Ibn Mas'ūd (may ALLĀH be pleased with him) said: "Whoever performs the night prayer (every night) throughout the year will achieve the Night of Al-Qadr."

He (Ubay Bin Ka'ab) said: "May ALLĀH have mercy on him, his intention was that the people not (grow lazy) and depend solely (on just one night). By the One of whom there is no deity worthy of worship beside HIM, it is indeed in Ramadān. And by ALLĀH I know on which night it is. It is on the night that ALLĀH’s Messenger ﷺ commanded us to perform the Night Prayer. It is on the twenty-seventh night. Its sign is that the sun rises on its following morning bright with no rays." {Muslim #762}

In one report this is raised to being a saying of the Prophet ﷺ {Sahih Abī Dawūd #1378}

📚Qiyām Ramadān  || Page 18-19

Shaikhul-Islām Ibn Taimiyyah (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said: "...And it occurs more frequently in the last seven; and it occurs most frequently on the twenty-seventh, just as Ubayy ibn Kab used to swear an oath that it was the twenty-seventh night. So it was said to him: "How have you come to know that?" So he replied: "On account of the sign which ALLĀH's Messenger ﷺ informed us of. He informed us that the sun rises on the morning following it being like a brass dish, having no rays." {Muslim #762}

"So this sign which Ubayy ibn Kab reported from the Prophet ﷺ is from the most well known signs occurring in hadīth; and it is related regarding its signs that it is a night that is "bright, shining"; and it is calm; it is not very hot, nor very cold. It may occur that ALLĀH reveals it to some of the people in a dream, or whilst awake, such that he sees its light, or he sees one who says to him: "This is Laylatul-Qadr"; or he may open his heart to witnessing such things that make the affair clear to him, and ALLĀH -the Most High- knows best."

📚 Majmū'l-Fatāwā || 25/284-286

Translation: Abū Talhah Daawūd ibn Ronald Burbank (may ALLĀH have mercy on him)

As the end of Ramadān approaches, this night gives us the valuable opportunity to redeem ourselves through prayer, reflection, seeking pardon and forgiveness, and increased worship. On this blessed night, let us tighten our waist belts as the beloved Prophet ﷺ did and collect the infinite blessings that await.

THE WISDOM BEHIND NOT KNOWING WHICH EXACT NIGHT LAYLATUL-QADR FALLS UPON

Ibn Qudāmah Al-Maqdisī (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said:

"Some of the people of knowledge said:
ALLĀH The Most High made this night unapparent (obscure) upon the Ummah in order that they should strive hard in seeking after it; and that they should find aspiration in worship when seeking to attain it.

Just as HE made the hour in which the supplication is answered on a Friday as unapparent – in order that they should be plentiful in making supplication throughout the day.

Just as HE has made HIS Greatest Name unapparent from amongst HIS Names; and HIS Pleasure in varying forms of obedience – in order that they should strive hard in all of them.

Likewise HE has made death and the establishment of The Hour as unapparent – in order that the people should earnestly endeavor in performing actions – out of caution from them both."

THE DESCENT OF THE ANGELS AND THE DECREE FOR EVERY GOOD DURING THE NIGHT OF AL-QADR

ALLĀH says,

تَنَزَّلُ الْمَلَيِكَةُ وَالرُّوحُ فِيهَا بِإِذْنِ رَبِّهِم مِّن كُلِّ أَمْرٍ
Therein (Night of al-Qadr) the angels and the Ruh by their Lord's permission with every matter.

meaning, the angels descend in abundance during the Night of Al-Qadr due to its abundant blessings. The angels descend with the descending of blessings and mercy, just as they descend when the Qur'ān is recited, they surround the circles of Dhikr (remembrance of ALLĀH) and they lower their wings with true respect for the student of knowledge.

In reference to Ar-Ruh, it is said that here it means the angel Jibril. Therefore, the wording of the Ayah is a method of adding the name of the distinct object (in this case Jibril) separate from the general group (in this case the angels).

Concerning ALLĀH's statement,

مِّن كُلِّ أَمْرٍ
with every matter

Mujahid said, "Peace concerning every matter."

Sa'id bin Mansur said, Isa bin Yunus told us that Al-Amash narrated to them that Mujahid said concerning ALLĀH's statement,
سَلَـمٌ هِىَ
There is peace,

"It is security in which Shaytan cannot do any evil or any harm."

Qatadah and others have said,

"The matters are determined during it, and the times of death and provisions are measured out (i.e., decided) during it."

ALLĀH says,

فِيهَا يُفْرَقُ كُلُّ أَمْرٍ حَكِيمٍ
Therein is decreed every matter of decree. (44:4)

Then ALLĀH says,

سَلَمٌ هِيَ حَتَّى مَطْلَعِ الْفَجْرِ
There is peace until the appearance of dawn.

Sa'id bin Mansur said, "Hushaym narrated to us on the authority of Abu Ishaq, who narrated that Ash-Sha'bi said concerning ALLĀH's statement,

تَنَزَّلُ الْمَلَـيِكَةُ وَالرُّوحُ فِيهَا بِإِذْنِ رَبِّهِم مِّن كُلِّ أَمْرٍ سَلَـمٌ هِىَ حَتَّى مَطْلَعِ الْفَجْرِ
Therein descend the angels and the Ruh by their Lord's permission with every matter, there is a peace until the appearance of dawn.

'The angels giving the greetings of peace during the Night of Al-Qadr to the people in the Masjids until the coming of Fajr (dawn)."'

Qatadah and Ibn Zayd both said concerning ALLĀH's statement,

سَلَـمٌ هِىَ
There is peace,

"This means all of it is good and there is no evil in it until the coming of Fajr (dawn)."

THE VIRTUES OF THE NIGHT OF AL-QADR
 
Shaikh 'Abdur-Rahmān as-Sa'di (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said:

"Due to its virtue it is equivalent to a thousand months, therefore the action carried out within it is better than the action of a thousand months which is devoid of it (the night). This is from that which has baffled the minds, and the intellects are astonished at it, in that HE, The Blessed and Most High has granted favour upon this weak Ummah (nation) with strength and potency – with a night in which the action within it is in equivalence and in excess of that of a thousand months – the lifetime of a long-lived man who had a long life in excess of eighty years."

{Taysīr al-Karīm ar-Rahmān || Page 931}
 
Shaikh 'Abdur-Rahmān as-Sa’dī said likewise: "Know that it is from the wisdom of ALLĀH and HIS Mercy for you that HE has hidden from you its concealment, in order that you should be plentiful in action which draws nearness to HIM, and that you should attain ample reward and find favour with HIM.

Indeed; whoever proficiently refines his intention and his purpose, and thus seeks it in anticipation ˹of reward˺, then it is a must that he is procured from its goodness. Since there is no believing man or believing woman except that they have a share from its grants and its benefaction – in accordance to one’s circumstance.

Therefore ALLĀH did not grant favour upon this Ummah with it except to give them from its comprehensive virtue, nor did HE call them to perseverance in obedience except to elevate their ranks in gardens of delight. Hence; if the servant were to know of some of what is in it by way of reward; then he would strive hard in pursuit of it, and if his heart were to become busied over that which is in it from the secrets and the affairs of acquaintance; then he would find the hardship in exertion after it to be sweet.

A night in which the hearts are upon humility, and in which The Lord grants bountifully to HIS servants every good and what is requested, in it every servant who turns ˹to ALLĀH˺ devotes himself to The Lord, and takes from his Lord a more abounding share and a most complete portion. In it the sins and misdeeds are forgiven, and written down is all that is sanctioned for the servant in his year by way of good and bad, and obedience and misdeeds."

THE SUPPLICATION FOR LAYLATUL QADR

Laylatul Qadr is one of the most special nights of the year, as it is the night in which the Holy Qur’an was revealed and is described in the Qur’an as being "better than a thousand months." As Muslims, we spend the night in worship, which includes reading the Qur’an, performing supererogatory prayers, and reciting the best duas for Laylatul Qadr.

The most beautiful dua to make on Laylatul Qadr can be found in a well-known hadith reported on the authority of 'Aaishah (may ALLĀH be pleased with her) who said, I said: "O Messenger of ALLĀH! What if I knew which night Laylatul Qadr was, what should I say in it?” The Prophet ﷺ said: "You should say:

اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ عَفُوٌّ تُحِبُّ الْعَفْوَ فَاعْفُ عَنِّي

Allāhumma innaka ‘afuwwun tuhibbul ‘afwa fa’fu ‘annee

O ALLĀH; YOU are the One Who pardons greatly; and YOU love to pardon; so pardon me.

{At-Tirmidhi #3513}

Ibn Rajab (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said: "Al-‘Afuww (The One Who pardons greatly) is from the Names of ALLĀH, the Most High; and HE overlooks the wrongdoings of HIS servants, HE is the One Who erases their trace from them. HE Loves to pardon; and so HE Loves to pardon HIS servants, HE likewise Loves from HIS servants that they should pardon each other, so if they pardon each other; HE conducts HIS pardon with them; and HIS Pardon is more beloved to HIM than HIS Punishment." {Lataa-if wal-Ma’aarif || Page 279}

Imām An-Nawawī (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said: "Our companions have stated that it is recommended that one be plentiful in making this supplication, and it is recommended to recite the Qur’ān as well as making the other invocations. It is recommended that one is plentiful within it in making supplications for the important matters pertaining to the Muslims, for this is the distinctive sign of the righteous, and the well-acquainted servants of ALLĀH." {Al-Adhkār || Page 229 (abridged)}

We ask ALLĀH to make us of those who will witness Laylatul Qadr and attain its benefits.

EVERY MATTER IS DECREED ON LAYLATUL-QADR

ALLAH stated:

إِنَّا أَنزَلْنَاهُ فِي لَيْلَةٍ مُّبَارَكَةٍ
Verily, WE sent it (i.e., the Qur'an) down on a blessed night.

That is, one in which there was much good and barakah (blessing), namely Laylatul-Qadr, which is better than a thousand months. Thus HE sent down the best of words on the best of nights and days, to the best of people, in the language of the noble Arabs, to warn thereby people who were enveloped in ignorance and overcome with wretchedness, so that they might find enlightenment and be guided by it, and follow it, thus attaining a great deal of good in this world and in the hereafter. Hence ALLĀH says:
إِنَّا كُنَّا مُنذِرِينَ
Verily, WE are ever warning.

فِيهَا
On that night

namely the blessed night on which the Qur’an was revealed

يُفْرَقُ كُلُّ أَمْرٍ حَكِيمٍ
All matters are decided on the basis of wisdom

That is, all matters are distinguished and clarified, and every issue of the divine decree and religious decree is recorded as ALLĀH decides.

This recording and clarification that take place on Laylatul-Qadr is one example of the writing that will take place and be clarified, and it will be identical to what is written in al-Lawh al-Mahfoodh, in which ALLĀH has decreed the affairs of all creatures and their lifespan, provision, deeds and circumstances.

Moreover, ALLĀH has appointed angels to write down what will happen to a person when he is in his mother’s womb, then, after he comes to this world, HE appoints noble scribes to write down and record his deeds, then on Laylatul-Qadr HE decrees what is to happen for the coming year.

All this is part of ALLAH’s perfect knowledge, wisdom and care for HIS creation.

That is, this wise command is something that comes from US.

STRIVING IN THE LAST TEN OF RAMADĀN

'Ā'ishah (may ALLĀH be pleased with her) narrated: "The Prophet ﷺ when the last ten entered, would enliven the night, awaken his family, strive earnestly and tighten his waste garment." {Agreed upon}

In another narration in Muslim: "ALLĀH'S Messenger ﷺ would strive in the last ten in a manner he did not strive in other than them." {Al-Bukhari #2024 and Muslim #1174}

The hadith is evidence that the last ten of Ramadān have a distinction over other than them; with an increase in acts of obedience and acts of worship such as şalāh, remembrance and recitation of the Qur'an.

The Mother of the Believers, 'A'ishah (may ALLĀH be pleased with her), described our Prophet and our example - Muhammad - with four characteristics:

1⃣. Her saying: "he would enliven the night" which means: he stayed up all night, enlivening it with acts of obedience, and enlivening himself by staying up all night in them. This is because sleep is the brother of death. The meaning is: he enlivened the night by standing in it (for salah) and devotion to ALLĀH, the Lord of all creation.

Regarding the prohibition of standing (in salah) the whole night - as has come in the hadith of 'Abdullah ibn Umar (may ALLĀH be pleased with them), then that is interpreted to mean: doing so continuously, every night of the year. {Majmū' al-Fatāwā, 22/308}

It also could be that it means he enlivened most of the night. That is supported by the saying of 'A'ishah (may ALLĀH be pleased with her): "I have never seen ALLAH'S Messenger ﷺ stand the whole night (in salāh) until the morning." {Muslim #746 and #141}

2⃣. Her saying: "awaken his family," which means: his pure wives, the Mothers of the Believers so that they may share with him in taking advantage of the good and the remembrance (of ALLĀH) and acts of worship in these blessed times.

3⃣. Her saying: "strive earnestly," which means: he strove to do acts of worship above what he did in the first twenty; and that is because the Night of Decree is in the last ten.

4⃣. Her saying: "tighten his waste garment," which means: he strove and labored in acts of worship. It is also said that it means: he kept away from his wives, and this is more apparent due to its attachment to what was before it. And he ﷺ used to make i'itikāf in the last ten, and the mu'takif is prohibited from his wives.

Truly, these ten are the seal of the month, and actions are according to their conclusions. Perhaps a person catches the Night of Decree while he is standing before the Lord of all creation, so his past sins will be forgiven. Therefore, the Muslim should increase in his worship when his month starts to decrease, and beautify himself with patience in performing acts of obedience. Actions are judged by the last of them.

WHAT IS AFTER RAMADĀN?

PART 1⃣

There is absolutely no doubt that every fasting person who fasted the month of Ramadān and every person who stood in prayer during its nights earnestly hopes that his fast and prayer will be righteous and accepted, and that his endeavor is rewarded. He calls upon ALLĀH with invocations to grant him this desire and to confer upon him this wish.

There are signs that allude to the acceptance [of an action], indications that point towards this and characteristics which in their presence it is hoped that this goal has been reached.

From these signs is that the individual finds himself upon more good, uprightness and obedience after Ramadān than prior to it. He performs his worship with fervor and dedication. He guards the compulsory matters and obligations, and he performs the prayer in the Masjid along with the congregation. He loves good, acts upon it and commands with it; and he hates evil, abandons it and warns against it.

As for the one whose condition is the same after Ramadān or worse than it - he is reckless in his transgression and misguidance, lazy in fulfilling the obligations and neglects them, and engrossed in forbidden acts and encourages with them - then these are signs of clear loss and a lack of prosperity.

He did not seize the opportunities in the season of obedience, he did not pursue its gifts in the season of bounties and he did not ask ALLĀH for forgiveness nor exhaust its means in the month of forgiveness and pleasure. What a great loss! What a serious calamity! What a terrifying outcome and punishment!

ETIQUETTE FOR FRIDAY

It is recommended that:

one cleans his body, performs Ghusl, wears his best clothes, applies perfume and  uses Siwak (tooth stick) for Jumu'ah.

We mentioned that Abu Sa'id narrated that the Messenger of ALLĀH said,

"Ghusl on the day of Jumu'ah is Wajib (required) from every Muhtalim and also using Siwak and applying some of his household's perfume."

Imam Ahmad recorded that Abu Ayyub Al-Ansari said that he heard the Messenger of ALLĀH say,

"Whoever performs Ghusl on Friday and applies perfume, if he has any, wears his best clothes, then goes to the Masjid and performs voluntary prayer, if he wishes, does not bother anyone, listens when the Imam appears until he starts the prayer. Then all of this will be an expiation for whatever occurs between that Friday and the next Friday."

Abu Dawud and Ibn Majah recorded in their Sunans that Abdullah bin Salam said that he heard the Messenger of ALLĀH say, while on the Minbar:

"What harm would it cause if one of you bought two garments for the day of Jumu'ah, other than the garment he wears daily?"

A'ishah said that during a speech he gave on a Friday when he saw people wearing Nimar garments, the Messenger of ALLĀH said,

"When one of you has wealth, he should keep two garments for Friday, other than the two garments he has for his daily wear."

Ibn Majah collected this Hadith.

SPECIFYING THE NIGHT OF DECREE AND ITS SIGNS (2/2)

It has also been said that it occurs on the twenty-seventh night because of what Muslim recorded in his Sahih from Ubay bin Ka`b that the Messenger of Allah mentioned that it was on the twenty-seventh night.

Imam Ahmad recorded from Zirr that he asked Ubayy bin Ka'b,

"O Abu Al-Mundhir! Verily, your brother Ibn Mas'ud says whoever stands for prayer (at night) the entire year, will catch the Night of Al-Qadr."

He (Ubayy) said, "May ALLĀH have mercy upon him. Indeed he knows that it is during the month of Ramadān and that it is the twenty-seventh night."

Then he swore by ALLĀH.

Zirr then said, "How do you know that"

Ubayy replied, By a sign or an indication that he (the Prophet) informed us of. It rises that next day having no rays on it -- meaning the sun."

Muslim has also recorded it. It has been said that it is the night of the twenty-ninth.

Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal recorded from 'Ubadah bin As-Samit that he asked the Messenger of ALLĀH about the Night of Decree and he replied,

"Seek it in Ramadān in the last ten nights.

For verily, it is during the odd nights, the twenty-first, or the twenty-third, or the twenty-fifth, or the twenty-seventh, or the twenty-ninth, or during the last night."

Imam Ahmad also recorded from Abu Hurayrah that the Messenger of ALLĀH said about the Night of Al-Qadr,

"Verily, it is during the twenty-seventh or the twenty-ninth night.

And verily, the angels who are on the earth during that night are more numerous than the number of pebbles."

Ahmad was alone in recording this Hadith and there is nothing wrong with its chain of narration.

At-Tirmidhi recorded from Abu Qilabah that he said,

"The Night of Al-Qadr moves around (i.e., from year to year) throughout the last ten nights."

This view that At-Tirmidhi mentions from Abu Qilabah has also been recorded by Malik, Ath-Thawri, Ahmad bin Hanbal, Ishaq bin Rahuyah, Abu Thawr, Al-Muzani, Abu Bakr bin Khuzaymah and others.

It has also been related from Ash-Shafi'i, and Al-Qadi reported it from him, and this is most likely.

And ALLĀH knows best.

SUPPLICATING FOR OTHERS IN THEIR ABSENCE IS ONE OF THE GREATEST MEANS TO GETTING DU'A ACCEPTED

As Muslims, one of the powerful methods to ensure that our supplications are answered by ALLĀH is to include and remember others in our du'a. This supplication not only benefits the person being supplicated for but also the person who makes the supplication for them in their absence. Supplicating to ALLĀH on behalf of others in their absence has been mentioned in many authentic ahādith, and it holds numerous virtues.

Umm Darda' (may ALLĀH be pleased with her) reported: My husband reported that he heard ALLĀH'S Messenger ﷺ as saying: "He who supplicates for his brother behind his back (in his absence), the Angel commissioned ˹for carrying supplication to his Lord˺ says: Aamīn, and for you be the like." {Muslim 2732}

Sheikh Abu Bakr at-Turtushee (may ALLĀH have mercy on him ) said regarding the hadith: "This hadith procures a tremendous point of benefit; because if you are answered in regard to your brother because he is absent from you, then we hope that the Angel will also be answered in regard to you – because you are absent from him." {Ad-Du’aa al-Ma'thoor wa Adābuhu || Page 34}

Sheikh Ibn Baz (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said: "Therefore if you say: 'O ALLĀH; forgive so and so, O ALLĀH; rectify his heart and his action, O ALLĀH; make his affairs easy for him, O ALLĀH; grant him righteous offspring, a righteous wife, beneficial knowledge.’ You supplicate for your brother with that which you see to be appropriate, and the appointed Angel says: 'Aamīn – and for you be the like of it.'

This, in reality, is something which only occurs from those of sound hearts and are desirous of good, loving good, for indeed it signifies on account of these issues that which is in their hearts from mildness and love and longing for that which is with ALLĀH and sincere counsel towards the servants of ALLĀH. So he supplicates for himself, and supplicates for his Muslim brothers." {Sharḥ Riyādhus-Saliḥīn of Sheikh bin Bāz || no. 469}

Therefore, during this blessed month, we should increase the chances of getting our supplications answered by supplicating it like for our brothers and sisters, young, old, sick, oppressed, orphaned, those who have passed away, those looking for jobs, those in debt, those expecting baby, those who are not married, and those seeking kids.

Imam an-Nawawī (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said: "Some of the Salaf, if one of them intended to supplicate for himself; then he would supplicate for his Muslim brother with that supplication, because it is answered, and he attains the like of that." {Sharh Sahih Muslim Vol. 17 Page 51}

This has been the way of the believers, they supplicate for one another, generation after generation, whether they are contemporaries or are from those that come after them, they supplicate for one another – desiring by way of that good for themselves and for their brothers in faith. ALLĀH said:

وَالَّذِينَ جَاءُوا مِن بَعْدِهِمْ يَقُولُونَ رَبَّنَا اغْفِرْ لَنَا وَلِإِخْوَانِنَا الَّذِينَ سَبَقُونَا بِالْإِيمَانِ وَلَا تَجْعَلْ فِي قُلُوبِنَا غِلًّا لِّلَّذِينَ آمَنُوا رَبَّنَا إِنَّكَ رَءُوفٌ رَّحِيمٌ
And those who came after them say: “Our Lord, forgive us and our brethren who preceded us in faith, and put not in our hearts any resentment against those who have believed. Our Lord! YOU are indeed Compassionate and Kind, Merciful." {Al-Hashr || Verse 10}

RAMADĀN IS SET TO MOVE ON!

Ibn Rajab al-Hanbali (may ALLĀH have mercy on him) said:

"O Servants of ALLĀH! Ramadān is set to move on, and only a little of it remains. If anyone has done well during the month thus far, it is incumbent on him to complete the month in a good fashion. While anyone who has fallen short let him finish in good shape. Only a few days and nights remain, so bid it farewell with righteous actions that will testify for you before the All-Knowing King. See it off by parting with it with the purest greeting of peace."

📖 Lataif al-Ma’arif || Page 216

NOTES:

- Reflect on your actions, seek forgiveness, and renew your commitment to ALLĀH.

- Dedicate more time to prayer, including voluntary prayers, and engage in frequent remembrance of ALLĀH.

- Deeds are judged by their endings; never lose hope in ALLĀH even if you have not taken advantage of the past days.

- Recognize and appreciate past good deeds but avoid complacency. Aim for excellence consistently throughout Ramadān.

- Work towards the ultimate goal of Paradise, rather than just focusing on ending the month of Ramadān.

Indeed, WE sent it (i.e., the Qur’ān) down during the Night of Al-Qadr (Decree).

And what will make you know what the Night of Al-Qadr is?

The Night of Al-Qadr is better than a thousand months (i.e. worshipping ALLĀH in that night is better than worshipping HIM a thousand months, i.e. 83 years and 4 months).

Therein descend the angels and the Ruh (i.e., Gabriel) by their Lord's permission with every ˹decreed˺ matter.

˹All that night˺, there is Peace (and Goodness from ALLĀH to HIS believing slaves) until the appearance of dawn.

Amongst the nights of Ramadān, there is one called ‘Laylatul Qadr’, a night that is noted for its great blessings. The Qur'ān describes it as being greater in blessings and spiritual virtue than a thousand months, which in turn means that it is more valuable than eighty three years and four months. Fortunate indeed is that person who attains the full blessings of this night by spending it in the worship of ALLĀH, because he has then attained the reward of worship for 83 years, 4 months and even more.

The Prophet ﷺ said: “Whosoever stands in worship on this night, with sincere faith and with genuine hopes of gaining reward, his previous sins will be forgiven." {Bukhari #1901}

Ibn Rajab used to say: "O you who has wasted the years of his life, there is nothing that will amend those lost and wasted years except for the night of Al-Qadr, for verily its value is equivalent to that of a lifetime." {Lata'if al-Ma'ārif || Page 191}

May ALLĀH bless us with the night of Decree.
