What do u know about Ramadan??

Question

Ramadan is the ninth month of the Muslim calendar. The Month of Ramadan is also when it is believed the Holy Quran "was sent down from heaven, a guidance unto men, a declaration of direction, and a means of Salvation".

It is during this month that Muslims fast. It is called the Fast of Ramadan and lasts the entire month. Ramadan is a time when Muslims concentrate on their faith and spend less time on the concerns of their everyday lives. It is a time of worship and contemplation.

During the Fast of Ramadan strict restraints are placed on the daily lives of Muslims. They are not allowed to eat or drink during the daylight hours. Smoking and sexual relations are also forbidden during fasting. At the end of the day the fast is broken with prayer and a meal called the iftar. In the evening following the iftar it is customary for Muslims to go out visiting family and friends. The fast is resumed the next morning.

Answer 7

yes, Ramadan is a month of  blessings. This is the month Allah has favored over all other 11 months. Ramadan is the month where Allah forgives the sins of those who repents, who obey him. Ramadan is a month in which Zakat (charity) is been given to poors so that even they can enjoy the fruits of life.

Ramadan is indeed a great month for all the Muslims which brings lots of happiness into our lives and also gives us a strange feeling of relaxation after praying to Allah at nights in this month which we normally, unfortunately, fails to do so.

Its the month where Quran, a complete guidance to mankind, was revealed upon Muhammad (p.b.u.h.)

Answer 11

Ramadan in Arabic is derived from the word 'Ramad' which means the hot weather, since the Arabs lived in a hot environment, and because the month of Ramadan matched a very hot weather at that time, so it is called Ramadan.

Answer 12

Hi =]

During the blessed month of Ramadan, Muslims all over the world abstain from food, drink, and other physical needs during the daylight hours. As a time to purify the soul, refocus attention on God, and practice self-sacrifice, Ramadan is much more than just not eating and drinking.

During Ramadan, every part of the body must be restrained. The tongue must be restrained from backbiting and gossip. The eyes must restrain themselves from looking at unlawful things. The hand must not touch or take anything that does not belong to it. The ears must refrain from listening to idle talk or obscene words. The feet must refrain from going to sinful places. In such a way, every part of the body observes the fast.

Therefore, fasting is not merely physical, but is rather the total commitment of the person's body and soul to the spirit of the fast. Ramadan is a time to practice self-restraint; a time to cleanse the body and soul from impurities and re-focus one's self on the worship of God.
