Ramadan is the month in which the Quran was revealed — a month of fasting by day and standing in prayer by night. The Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever fasts Ramadan out of faith and seeking reward, his previous sins will be forgiven." (Al-Bukhari)

Three goals for the month

  • The Quran: set a daily portion to recite and reflect upon.
  • The night prayer: pray Taraweeh and seek Laylat al-Qadr in the last ten nights.
  • Charity: the Prophet ﷺ was most generous in Ramadan.
"O you who believe, fasting is prescribed for you… that you may attain taqwa." — Surah Al-Baqarah 2:183

Keep it consistent

The most beloved deeds to Allah are those done consistently, even if small. Choose a light, steady routine you can maintain until the last night, and end the month asking for pardon: Allahumma innaka ʿafuwwun tuḥibbul-ʿafwa faʿfu ʿannī.
