Blessings of Ramdhan (Sep 5, 2008)

In this Friday Sermon Huzoor gave a discourse on the excellence and blessings of the Holy month of Ramadhan.

Huzoor said fasting is prescribed at this month of Ramadhan on all the believers so that one adopts Taqwa means righteousness and come into Allah's refuge to be protected from all evil and do good.

Each one of us should make sure to stay away from anything that Allah disliked in this month. We have to keep our heart, eyes, hands and every part of us away from anything that Allah dislikes. If we do not take care of these, there is no pointwe starve. Allah does not need us to starve.  This is the month for us to practice good deeds. 

Huzoor said our God is the Lord of all the worlds and He is All Powerful and He is pleased  when His servant strives to attain His closeness and is drawn to do good. We should,  therefore, supplicate to Allah during these days more than before.Our prayers should not be made only when we are in need rather our sincere prayers should be made to attain Allah's pleasure and His love.

Huzoor said we Ahmadis should pray fervently for the triumph of our faith, Ahmadiyyat the True Islam  and for each one of us to stay firm on our faith.

This Ramadhan being the first Ramadan of the second century of Ahmadiyya Khilafat, Huzoor said with prayers and supplications we should make this Ramadan that would determine new paths, and generate prayers that would absorb love of our God
