| The Last Ten Nights Of Ramadan Are Near by Lukgaf(op): 5:55pm On Mar 05 |
Today marks the 17th day of Ramadan, which means the best and most blessed days of this month are fast approaching — the last ten nights. These are the nights the Prophet ﷺ treated with special seriousness and devotion. It was reported: عَنْ عَائِشَةَ رضي الله عنها قَالَتْ: كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِذَا دَخَلَ العَشْرُ الأَوَاخِرُ شَدَّ مِئْزَرَهُ وَأَحْيَا لَيْلَهُ وَأَيْقَظَ أَهْلَهُ Meaning: Aishah (RA) said: When the last ten nights of Ramadan began, the Prophet ﷺ would tighten his waist cloth, spend the night in worship, and wake his family. (Bukhari & Muslim) These nights carry a treasure that cannot be matched — Laylatul Qadr, the Night of Decree. Allah says: لَيْلَةُ الْقَدْرِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ أَلْفِ شَهْرٍ Meaning: The Night of Decree is better than a thousand months. (Qur’an 97:3) This means that worship on that night is better than worship of more than 83 years. So as these blessed days approach, let us prepare ourselves by increasing: Qiyām al-Layl (night prayers) Recitation of the Qur’an Du‘ā and seeking forgiveness Charity and good deeds Sincere repentance Do not let these nights pass like ordinary nights. Many people who fasted with us last year are not alive to witness this Ramadan again. May Allah allow us to reach the last ten nights, grant us Laylatul Qadr, accept our worship, and forgive our sins. اللهم بلغنا ليلة القدر ووفقنا لقيامها إيمانًا واحتسابًا. 2 Likes 1 Share |

The Prophet ﷺ instructed us to seek Laylatul Qadr in the odd nights of the last ten nights. تَحَرَّوْا لَيْلَةَ الْقَدْرِ فِي الوِتْرِ مِنَ العَشْرِ الأَوَاخِرِ مِنْ رَمَضَانَ Meaning: Seek Laylatul Qadr in the odd nights of the last ten nights of Ramadan. (Bukhari) These nights are likely to be the 21st, 23rd, 25th, 27th, and 29th nights of Ramadan. If Allah allows us to witness these nights, the Prophet ﷺ taught us a special supplication to say frequently: اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ عَفُوٌّ تُحِبُّ العَفْوَ فَاعْفُ عَنِّي Transliteration: Allahumma innaka ‘afuwwun tuḥibbul ‘afwa fa‘fu ‘anni. Meaning: O Allah, You are Most Forgiving and You love to forgive, so forgive me. (Tirmidhi) Let us prepare ourselves now by increasing our Qur’an recitation, night prayers, charity, and sincere repentance. These nights are few, but their rewards are immense. May Allah allow us to witness the last ten nights, grant us Laylatul Qadr, accept our deeds, and forgive our sins. Ameen. PS: Remember to recite Suratul Khaf 2 Likes 2 Shares |

And don't forget to obey Quran 9:5 So, as soon as Al-Ashhurul-Hurum have passed, then key the Mushrikun wherever you found them, and capture them, and keep them under surveillance and establish for them all means for ambush. So if they repented and took a turn (to reform) and established As-Salat and paid up Az-Zakat, then leave their way free. Verily, Allah is Oft-Forgiving, continuously Merciful 1 Like |

This fasting of a thing. I am just curious oo Abeg, what's the business of yahoo boys, Oloshos, bandits even the politicians with fasting? Isn't that deliberately starving as God can never answer their prayers because the will return to their old habits after the fasting 1 Like |

helinues:Fraud, Fornication and theft/banditry are major sins that warrant great punishment in a fully Islamic country! But this does not throw them out of Islam. They are Muslims if they truly believe in Allah and follow all the necessary tenets of Islam! Fasting is prescribed to all Muslims so that we all can be mindful of Allah! |

AntiChristian:You are not getting my question. The bandits for example now, what's the purpose of them fasting for 30 days when even during the fasting they are committing crimes? 1 Like |

Nwaikpe:Khamenei died at 86! Are you sure you'll reach 60? How many of your friends/relatives are dead before 40? |

AntiChristian:the ending was not good for the 86 yr old |
| Re: The Last Ten Nights Of Ramadan Are Near by AntiChristian: 10:42am On Mar 06 |
helinues:Bandits didn't tell you they are Muslims, did they? And who even believes a bandit's word! Banditry is a major sin in Islam that may even attracts a huge punishment! And the 29/30 days are not yet completed! |

AntiChristian:Okay. Let's use the politicians again here. You know if all our politicians are actually doing what they are elected for or keeping to their own campaign promises, things would have improved right? So the Muslim politicians, during and after the 30 days fasting, are they going to have a change of mind and be doing the right thing even though we are not expecting them to use their personal money to develop the country 1 Like |

shox:Who told you? I don't support him but He died quickly unlike some who gets sick for years with some stroke or other ailment suffering in neglect, etc. Look at the people who died around you and compare? Did Jesus had a good end in the Bible? |

helinues:They are supposed to be doing the right things as Ramadan is a reset to our we should always live our lives as Muslims! No fraud, theft, lies, etc in Islam in and out of Ramadan! |

SonOfZeus:Chicken or no Chicken, death na death! People die everyday as miscarriage, at infancy and youth! And you may even die any seconds as we speak! How old was your Grandpa and ma when they died? |
| Re: The Last Ten Nights Of Ramadan Are Near by SonOfZeus: 10:54am On Mar 06 |
AntiChristian:They are still alive, but thanks for your concern. People die everyday yes… the impact made on the lives of people around you matters, if you bring pain to them, Wetin concern us if you lived till 40 or 100 years? Na the pain and sorrow they will use to remember you. Shikina. Fasting isn’t enough. All I’m saying is, while you’re alive, be a good representative of your god or prophet. E no pass like that. 2 Likes |

SonOfZeus:You guys need to grow up! I am not of the same thought with Khamenei but spiting people when they die is belittling! Do you know how you'll die? How your parents and grand parents will die? You can come online and talk about other's parents and grand parents but never yours! Khamenei never said in any of his speech that he represents Islam. He represented Iran, a sovereign country with their own constitution! |

shox:That's how flawed your criteria of judgement is! Do you know how you'll die? And how people will do worse to you when you die? |

AntiChristian:I'd rather go at 60 than live a life like the one he lived. That is exactly why his exit is that of the wicked. Painful, sorrowful, and g o r y. |
