This month of benevolence is waiting for Muslims every year, so that they can gather, fast, pray and pray because all of it is a blessing and demons are locked in it. A good day and a blessing is the month of Ramadan. Let's talk about the month of fasting.
Ramadan is the ninth month in the Hijri calendar that comes after the month of Shaaban, and this month is unique to Muslims and has a special place from the rest of the Hijri year. It is the month of fasting, which is one of the pillars of Islam, where it abstains In his days, Muslims (with the exception of some cases) refrained from drinking and food, while avoiding desires from dawn to sunset. The month of Ramadan begins when the sighting of the crescent is proven on the 29th of Sha`ban. In the event that it is not seen, the month of Sha`ban becomes 30 days, so the next day will be the first day of Ramadan.
The month of Ramadan also has a special place in the heritage and history of Muslims, because they believe that the Qur’an’s descent from the preserved tablet into the lowest heaven was on the Night of Power this month, and then it came down at separate times during the revelation of the period when the Prophet Muhammad was in the cave of Hira when he came King Gabriel to him according to Islamic beliefs, and he said to him, Ra bracket.png Read in the name of your Lord who created Aya-1.png La bracket.png and this was the first verse that was revealed from the Qur’an, and the Qur’an was revealed from the Tableau preserved by Laylat al-Qadr one sentence, so he put it in the house of pride In the heavens of the world in Ramadan, then Gabriel was revealed in it in fragments, orders, prohibitions, and reasons B, and that in twenty-three years.
Ramadan is also associated in Islamic countries with many religious rituals such as: Tarawih prayer and i'tikaaf in the last ten days, and also many customs and traditions such as inviting others to break their fast and setting up Iftar tables, and there are many traditional aspects associated with this month such as: lantern, adornment and Ramadan cannon , And also the personal Almsrati and storytellers, and food and some sweets that are eaten after breakfast. The name Ramadan was not limited to Islam, and the name did not exist only after the mission of the Prophet Muhammad, because the name was present since pre-Islamic times, as people used to name the months of the year according to the time of their occurrence at the time when the naming took place or according to the type of the month. For example, the month of Dhu al-Hijjah: It was also called for it to have the pilgrimage season during which Muslims perform Hajj, and the month of Rabi 'al-Awwal: It was named so because it occurred at the time of its name, it was in the spring season; As for the blessed month of Ramadan, the word Ramadan came from the original word "Ramd", which is the intensity of heat, as the name of Ramadan was at a time when it was extremely hot, so it was called this name. The name is identical to the nature of this month for Muslims, as the hollow of the fasting person becomes more severe than the intensity of hunger and thirst, so the hollow of Ramadan is Ramadan. There are many Quranic verses and prophetic sayings that talk about the virtue of the month of Ramadan and the reward that a Muslim earns as a result of performing this pillar of Islam. From the best of the blessed month of Ramadan, in it the gates of heaven open and the gates of fire are closed [4], and the rest of the devils are chained, that is, the oldest, so the Muslim will have the opportunity The greatest in avoiding sins and drawing closer to God Almighty with the acts of worship and obedience that bring him closer to Heaven and keeping him away from the fire [5], from Abu Hurairah, the Messenger of God said: “If the first night of Ramadan is Sattafat and Sifat Al-Shaman” door Fire, which did not open the door, and opened the gates of Paradise did not close the door of them, and voice calls out: O seeker of good, O seeker of evil. God is free from fire, and that is every night »Ibn Majah. Ramadan is the month of the imposition of God, fasting the month of forgiveness of sins and earn the reward, satisfaction and get closer to God and answer calls to the words of God Ra bracket.png the month of Ramadan, which revealed the Koran guidance for mankind and clear proofs of guidance and the Criterion you saw it month Vlisamh and was sick or on a journey several of the Some days later, God wants you to ease and does not want hardship for you, and to complete the number and to grow up to God for what you have. I seem to me, because I am a relative, and I will answer the call of the supplicant when he calls, so they will respond to me and believe in me, so that they may be guided. And Ramadan is the month of the descent of the Qur’an, in a night considered the greatest night of the year, and it is the night of fate and is better than a thousand months and it is the night of fate. Then God Almighty said in Surat al-Qadr: Ra bracket.png We have revealed it on the night of destiny Aya-1.png La bracket.png [Verse 2], and in Surat Al-Dukhan: Ra bracket.png, we revealed it on a blessed night, but we were vowing Aya-3.png La bracket.png [verse 3]. And Ramadan is the month of generosity, generosity and charity, the month of recitation of the Qur’an and the multiplication of alms, which is the month of patience, because patience does not manifest itself in any of the acts of worship as it is manifested in fasting, in which the Muslim holds himself for her desires and beloved ones, and for this fasting was half patience, and the reward of patience is Paradise, the Almighty said: Ra bracket.png Say: O slaves of those who believe, fear your Lord for those who do good in this world good, and the land of God and wide but Alsaberon fulfilled their reward without Aya account-10.png La bracket.
Although Muslims were first commanded to fast in the second year of migration (624 AD), they believed that the practice of fasting was not really an innovation of monotheism, [6] but was always necessary for believers to reach piety (fear of God). [7] They point to the fact that the pagans during the pre-Islamic era in Islamic Mecca on the tenth day of Muharram to atone for sin and avoid drought. [8] Historian and researcher Philip Jenkins argues that the celebration of Ramadan fasting arose from "the strict discipline of fasting in the Syriac churches", an assumption endorsed by other scholars and scholars, including theologian Paul Gordon Chandler, but disputed by some Muslim academics.
The beginning and end of the month of Ramadan are determined by the Islamic lunar calendar. The crescent (in the crescent) is usually a day (or more) after the birth of the new moon astronomically. Which marks the beginning of the new month, and Muslims can usually safely estimate the beginning of Ramadan. [12] However, for many Muslims, this is not consistent with documented hadiths stating that a visual confirmation is necessary to see the crescent in the area and differences have been found since the time of Muhammad. Laylat al-Qadr, which in Arabic means "night of power and strength" or "night of destiny," is considered the most holy night of the year. [14] [15] This is the night that Muslims believe has accompanied the revelation of the first revelation from the Qur’an to Muhammad, indicating that this night was "better than a thousand months [correct worship]," as stated in the third verse of Surat al-Qadr from the Qur’an, and will be in the last ten days of Ramadan.
The Qur’an states: The month of Ramadan in which the Qur’an was revealed is a guidance for people and evidence from Al-Huda and Al-Furqan ۚ so whoever has seen it The month of Ramadan, which is: the ninth month of the lunar year. The month was called the month of his month. As for Ramadan, Mujahid said: It is one of the names of God Almighty said the month of Ramadan as it is said the month of God, and it is true that it is the name of the month, it was called from Al-Ramdha, which is the protected stones, and they used to fast it in the extreme heat, when the stones threw in. In the heat. And the month of Ramadan in which the Qur’an was revealed, that is: He descended to the lowest heaven, in the month of Ramadan, specifically on the Night of Power, which God Almighty called: a blessed night, and then descended after that during the revelations of the revelation in twenty-three years, during the days and months.
It was narrated from Muqsim on the authority of Ibn Abbas: “The month of Ramadan in which the Qur’an was revealed” and: “We revealed it on the Night of Power” [16] and God Almighty said: “We sent it down on a blessed night” in [17] and it was revealed in all other months, and the Qur’an mentions: "And we read our teams." In [18], he said: “The Qur’an sent down one sentence from the tablet preserved on the Night of Power from the month of Ramadan, to the house of glory in the worldly sky, then Gabriel, peace be upon him, descended on the Messenger of God, peace and blessings of God be upon him, stars in twenty-three years. I do not swear by the locations of the stars (Surat al-Waqi’ah verse 75). ”[19] And it is guided to people: that is: a guideline of error.
The Qur’an was revealed in the month of Ramadan, specifically on the Night of Power this month, a collection of the tablet preserved to the House of Glory in the worldly sky, and that was on the Night of Power.
