💠Ibn Rajab al-hanbali (Rahimahu'Allah) reported:
‼️Oh servants of Allah, indeed the month of Ramadan has prepared to leave, and nothing remains except a few more days. 🌙
💥Whoever has done well during the month should continue to do well, and whoever was deficient, should try to end the month in good, for indeed actions are according to their completion.
🌷Therefore, take advantage of what remains of the month, and give the month the best farewell and peace.

💥So the most sincere of people is the one who loves Allah the most and puts the most trust in Him."

📚💠ADVICE OF IBN AL JAWZI (RAHIMAHU'ALLAH) FOR US ON THIS MONTH OF RAMADAN💠📚
🎲💎Ibn al Jawzi (rahimahullah):
❖❐ “… Where are those who fast and where are those who pray by night?
❐ Where are those who obey their Lord and where are those who work righteousness?
❐ Where are those who are foremost and where are are the humble ones?
❐ Where are those who remember (their Lord) and where are those devoted to Him Where are the truthful and where are the patient?
❐ Where are the charity givers? Where are those who enjoin good, who save the troubled ones and who forbid the wrong?
❐ Where are those who heed contemplation and who listen to good advice and life-lessons?
💠 By Allah, they have indeed gone with the Salihin (righteous), returned with the Mu’minin (believers), settled with the Anbiya’ (Prophets) and taken residence with the Siddiqin (truthful ones).
🔰But us, we remain behind with the ignorant, have settled with the wrong doers and have taken the heedless as our guides…!
❐ Fasting is the shield of nations, protecting from the Hell fire, And fasting is a fortress for whoever fears that fire!
❐ Fasting is a covering for all the people of goodness Those who fear the burden of blame and sinfulness
❐ And this month is the month of the Lord of the Throne
❐ A Most Merciful Lord, Who conceals the heavy sins & burdens
❐ So therein have fasted men who thus profited
Their reward lies with the Exalted and Forgiving One
❐ And so they came to settle in Everlasting Gardens, Surrounded by maidens, and rivers and plantations…!
❐ So glad tidings to those who obey the Most Merciful King in this month of Mercy, this month of Ramadan.
❐ They bore patience over a few days, and thus long-lasting mercy and abundant blessings came after them and pursued them.
❐ Every time you do good in this month, you shall be rewarded for the rest of your life because righteousness is a habit and evilness is mere stubbornness.
❐ Where are you O’ fasting one, who prays by night? Come forth to goodness and you shall triumph with everlasting happiness!
❐ Trade with your Lord and you shall profit, work with Him and you shall be successful, apologise and He shall accept your apology, seek His forgiveness and He shall forgive your sins, draw close to Him and He shall alleviate your suffering, ask Him from His Bounties and He shall expand your provisions, repent to Him and He shall increase your portion (in life).
❐ O my dear brother, in this month all faults and mistakes are concealed, all souls and hearts are softened, sins and burdens are forgiven, and Allah `azza wa jall relieves every sad and troubled one. He says to His angels, ‘O My Angels, look at those dry tongues, how they become moist with My Remembrance.
❐ Look at those hard eyes, how they soften and weep out of fear of Me, and look at those delicate feet planted firmly at the stations of prayer out of desire for Me!’
❐ O my dear brother, whenever you give food to others in this month for the Sake of Allah (Subhanahu wa ta'ala) the Lord of the heavens and the earth, you shall be raised to high ranks in the lofty grounds of Paradise, and you will be clothed with complete goodness and stripped of all sin…”

[Lataif al Ma'arif | Pg. 304]
💥The most beneficial istighfär is the one which is accompanied by repentance. It entails untying the knot of persistence [in sin]. The one who seeks forgiveness with his tongue while his heart is knotted in sin and he is determined to return to sin after Ramadân, and also returns to it, then his fasting is rejected and the door of acceptance is shut off from him.
💠Ka'b bin Malik رضي الله عنه said:
💥"Whoever fasts Ramadan while intending in his heart that after breaking the fast (at the end of Ramadan), he will not disobey Allah, will enter Paradise without questioning or reckoning.
🚫 But whoever fasts Ramadan while intending in his heart that after breaking the fast (at the end of Ramadan), he will disobey his Lord, his fasting will be rejected."

💠 Virtue of fasting six days of Shawwaal
💢Fasting six days of Shawwaal after the obligatory fast of Ramadaan is Sunnah Mustahabbah, not waajib.
💢It is recommended for the Muslim to fast six days of Shawwaal, and in this there is great virtue and an immense reward. Whoever fasts these six days will have recorded for him a reward as if he had fasted a whole year,
💢as was reported in a sahih Hadith from the Prophet (Sallallahu alaihe wa Sallam). Abu Ayyoob (Rady'Allahu anhu) reported that the Messenger of Allah (Sallallahu alaihe wa Sallam) said:
💠 “Whoever fasts Ramadaan and follows it with six days of Shawwaal, it will be as if he fasted for a lifetime.” [Narrated by Muslim, Abu Dawud, al-Tirmidhi, al-Nisaa’i and Ibn Maajah]
💠 The Prophet (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) explained this when he said: “Whoever fasts for six days after (Eid) al-Fitr has completed the year: (whoever does a good deed (hasanah) will have ten hasanah like it).”
💠 According to another report: “Allah has made for each hasanah ten like it, so a month is like fasting ten months, and fasting six days completes the year.” [al-Nisaa’i and Ibn Maajah. See also sahih al-Targheeb wa’l-Tarheeb, 1/421].
💠 It was also narrated by Ibn Khuzaymah with the wording: “Fasting for the month of Ramadaan brings the reward of ten like it, and fasting for six days brings the reward of two months, and that is the fasting of the whole year.”
💠 The Hanbali and Shaafa’i fuqaha’ explained that fasting six days of Shawwaal after fasting Ramadaan makes it as if one has fasted for an entire year of obligatory fasts, because the multiplication of the reward applies even to naafil fasts, because each hasanah brings the reward of ten like it.
💠 Another of the important benefits of fasting six days of Shawwaal is that is makes up for any shortfall in a person's obligatory Ramadaan fasts, because no one is free of shortcomings or sins that have a negative effect on his fasting.
💠 On the Day of Resurrection, some of his naafil deeds will be taken to make up the shortcomings in his obligatory deeds, as the Prophet (Sallallahu alaihe wa sallam) said:
💠 “The first thing for which people will be brought to account on the Day of Resurrection will be their salaah (prayer). Our Lord, may He be glorified and exalted, will say to His angels – although He knows best – ‘Look at the salaah of My slave, whether it is complete or incomplete.’ If it is perfect, it will be recorded as perfect,
💠 and if something is lacking, He will say, ‘Look and see whether My slave did any voluntary (naafil) prayers.’ If he did some voluntary prayers, [Allah] will say, Complete the obligatory actions of My slave from his voluntary actions.’ Then all his actions will be dealt with in a similar manner.” [Narrated by Abu Dawud]
And Allah knows best.

💠Once there was a blacksmith. He was hardworking and kind-hearted. Everyone loved him and sincerely prayed for him because he always stood by them in times of need and hardship.
🔰But despite his goodness, his life was filled with sorrow and suffering. Nothing seemed to go well for him.
🍃One day, a friend asked him,
"You are so righteous, generous, and humble yet everything in your life seems to go wrong. Why is there no improvement? Doesn't Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) see you?"
💢The blacksmith didn't respond immediately. He remained silent for a while, then smiled and began to speak not by answering the question directly, but by telling a story from his own craft:
💥Every day, raw iron is brought to my shop. With it, I make tools and weapons--knives, machetes, swords--shaped in many forms. The process is quite fascinating. Let me explain it to you.
🔥First, I heat the iron in the fire using the bellows until it turns red hot. Then I hammer it repeatedly to shape it smoothly. After that, I dip it into cold water. It hisses and smokes as it cools down.
💢Then I inspect it carefully to see whether it has taken the proper shape and strength. If it hasn't, I repeat the process. Some pieces of iron can't withstand this treatment they crack during hammering or shatter when dipped into the cold water. Such pieces are of no use, and I throw them aside."
🍃The blacksmith then looked over at a pile of broken iron in the corner of his shop. He sighed and said:
💠I know that Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala) is testing me with the fire and the cold. I'm trying to understand the wisdom behind the pain and hardships I face. The heavy hammering and the bitter chill of life no longer hurt me as they once did.
💢All I ask from my Lord is this:
💥'O my Lord, O Mighty and Sublime Creator, please do not abandon me until my heart becomes as strong as You want it to be. Shape me as You wish but do not throw me into the discarded pile like the broken and useless iron in the corner.'
Ameen, Ya Rabb al-'Alameen.'
💠Once there was a blacksmith. He was hardworking and kind-hearted. Everyone loved him and sincerely prayed for him because he always stood by them in times of need and hardship.
🔰But despite his goodness, his life was filled with sorrow and suffering. Nothing seemed to go well for him.

💠"And whosoever turns away (blinds himself) from the remembrance of the Most Beneficent (Allah), We appoint for him Shaitan to be a Qarin (an intimate companion) to him. And verily, they (Satans / devils) hinder them from the Path (of Allah), but they think that they are [rightly] guided"
[Surah Az-Zukhruf | C.43: A.36-37]
♨️Whoever deliberately turns away from the remembrance of Allah such as the Qur'an, divine guidance, or sincere reflection; Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) allows a devil (Shaitan) to become his close and constant companion. This is a form of divine punishment and a consequence of persistent heedlessness.
💢That devil then leads the person further astray, diverts him from the straight path, and makes falsehood appear as truth, so much so that the person becomes convinced he is rightly guided even while drowning in misguidance.
💥Remaining connected to Dhikr, the Qur'an, and sincere submission to Allah (subhanahu wa ta'ala) is essential. Once a heart turns cold to guidance, it becomes vulnerable to Satanic deception, and the most dangerous state is to be lost while thinking we're on the right path!
