“O MANKIND! Worship (serve) your Sustainer, who has
created you and those who lived before you, so that you
might remain conscious of Him (TAQWA)“
(Qur’an: Baqarah: 2: 21)

“ (Allah) Who has made the earth a resting-place for
you and the sky a canopy, and has sent down water
from the sky and thereby brought forth fruits for your
sustenance: do not, then, claim that there is any power
that could rival Allah, when you know [that He is One].”


Imam ‘Ali bin Abi Tolib r.a. said:

“The foremost in religion is the acknowledgement of Him (Allah)”
Mankind’s existence is not accidental as though without purpose,
but humans by nature are capable of knowing meanings and purpose to
his life and his special place in nature.
Unlike animals, man’s reasoning faculty is summoned to reflect upon
the higher philosophical questions as to the meaning and purpose of life
which leads to the cognition of the existence of the Divine.
There is already and innate predisposition in him towards wanting to
serve (worship) someone or something.


• Those who claimed to be “atheists” even are in reality serving or
worshipping their own Selves (their desires).

“Have you seen he who has taken as his god his [own] desire, and Allah
has sent him astray due to knowledge and has set a seal upon his
hearing and his heart and put over his vision a veil? So who will guide
him after Allah? Then will you not be reminded?”
(Qur’an: Jathiya: 45: 24)

“It is Allah who made for you the earth a place of
settlement and the sky a ceiling and formed you
and perfected your forms and provided you with
good things. That is Allah, your Lord (ROB-
BUKUM) ; then blessed is Allah, Lord of the worlds.”
(Qur’an: Ghafir: 40: 64)


“Thee alone do we worship; and unto
Thee alone do we turn for aid.”
(Qur’an: al-Fateha: 1: 5)


“Allah wills that you shall have ease, and does not will you to suffer
hardship; but [He desires] that you complete the number [of days required],
and that you extol Allah for His having guided you aright, and that you
render your thanks [unto Him] - SHAKUR.”


MANY DO NOT REALIZE THAT THEY ARE BEING TESTED
WITH MANY GOOD FAVOURS IN LIFE – FOR ALL THESE
(GOOD THINGS) COMES FROM THE WILL OF ALLAH.
WHAT IS EXPECTED OF THEM IS, SO THAT THEY SHOULD
BE GRATEFUL ( SHAKUR - )

“And remember! your Lord caused to be declared (publicly):
"If ye are grateful (SHAKAR-TUM), I will add more (favours)
unto you; but if ye show ingratitude (KAFAR-TUM), truly My
punishment is terrible indeed."
(Qur’an: Ibrahim:14: 7)

“So remember Me; I will remember you.
(WASH-KU-RU-LI) And be grateful to Me and
(WA-LAA-TAK-FU-RUUN) do not deny Me.”


“He is (AL-HAYU) the Ever-Living; there is no deity except Him,
so (FAD-’UUHU) call upon Him, [being] sincere to Him in
religion (MUKH-LISAN LAHUD-DEEN). [All] praise is [due] to
Allah, (ROB-BIL-’AA-LA-MEEN) Lord of the worlds.
Say, [O Muhammad], "Indeed, I have been forbidden to
worship those you call upon (TAD-’UUNA) besides Allah once
the clear proofs have come to me from my Lord, and I have
been commanded to submit to the Lord of the worlds."”
(Qur’an: Ghafir: 40: 65-66)


"And do not follow (pursue) anything of which thou hast no
knowledge: verily (thy) hearing and sight and heart - all of
them - will be called to account for it (on Judgement Day)."

(Qur’an: Bani Israil : 17 :36)


“Say: "Invoke ALLAH, or invoke (AR-RAHMAAN)
the Most Gracious: by whichever name you
invoke Him, [He is always the One-for] His are
all the attributes of perfection (ASMA-UL-
HUSNA). And [pray unto Him; yet] be not too
loud in thy prayer nor speak it in too low a voice,
but follow a way in-between;”
(Qur’an: Isra’: 17:110)


“AD-DU’A (Supplication) is the marrow (essence) of
AL-‘IBADAH (worship, servitude).”
(Hadith reported by Bukhary)


“AD-DU’A (Supplication) is (itself)
AL-‘IBADAH (worship, servitude).”
(Hadith reported by Tirmidzi)


“Nothing (of our action) is nobler in Allah’s sight
than that of supplicating to Him (AD-DU’A) in our
times of ease (AR-RAKHA’). ”


“AD-DU’A (Supplication) is the weapon of the
Believer, tghe pillar of his Religion and light of the
heaven and earth ”


“But your Sustainer says: “Call unto Me, [and] I shall
respond to you! Verily, they who are too proud to
worship Me will enter hell, abased!”
(Qur’an: Ghafir: 40: 60)


“AND IF My servants ask thee about Me - behold, I am near; I
respond to the (DU’A) call of him who calls, whenever he calls unto
Me: let them, then, (YASTAJIB) respond unto Me, and (YU’-MINUU-
BI) believe in Me, so that they might follow the right way.”

“Call unto your Sustainer humbly (TADWARU’), and
(KHUF-YATAN) in the secrecy of your hearts. Verily,
He loves not those who transgress the bounds of
what is right:
hence, do not spread corruption on earth after it
has been so well ordered. And call unto Him with
fear (KHAUF) and (TOMA-’A) longing: verily, Allah’s
grace is ever near unto the doers of good!”
(Qur’an: A’-raf: 7: 54-55)


IN THE NAME OF ALLAH,
MOST COMPASSIONATE,
MOST MERCIFUL.


“Praise belongs to Allah who guided us to His praise, and placed us
among the people of praise, that we might be among the thankful for
His beneficence, and that He might recompense us for that with the
recompense of the good-doers! “


“ And praise belongs to Allah who showed favour to us through His
religion, singled us out for His creed, and directed us onto the roads of
His beneficence, in order that through His kindness we might travel
upon them to His good pleasure, a praise which He will accept from us
and through which He will be pleased with us! “


“ And praise belongs to Allah who appointed among those
roads His month (SHAHRAHU),
the month of Ramadan (SHAHR-AR-RAMADHAN),
the month of fasting (SHAHR-AS-SIYAM)
the month of submission (SHAHR-AL-ISLAM), … “


“ … the month of purity (SHAHRAT-TOHUR)
the month of putting to test (SHAHR-AL-TAM-HEESw)
, the month of standing in prayer (SHAR-AL-QIYAAM)
"in which the Qur'an was sent down as guidance to the people,
and as clear signs of the Guidance and the Separator" (2:185)! “


”He clarified its excellence over other months by the many
sacred things and well-known excellences (FADHILAT) which He
placed therein, for He made unlawful in it what He declared
lawful in others to magnify it (‘AZAMAT), … “


“ … He prohibited foods and drinks in it to honour it (AKRAM), and
He appointed for it (WAQT) a clear time which He (majestic and
mighty is He) allows not to be set forward and accepts not to be
placed behind.”


“Then He made one of its nights surpass the nights of a thousand
months and named it the Night of Decree (LAYLATUL-QADR);…”


“ … in it the angels and the Spirit descend by the leave of their
Lord upon every command, a peace" (97:4-5) constant in blessings
until the rising of the dawn upon whomsoever He will of His
servants according to the decision He has made firm… “


”O Allah, bless Muhammad and his Household, inspire us with
knowledge of its excellence, veneration of its inviolability, and
caution (HAZAR) against what Thou hast forbidden within it, … “


“ … and help us to fast in it by our restraining our limbs
from acts of disobedience toward Thee and our employing
them in that which pleases Thee, …”


“ … so that we lend not our ears to idle talk (LAGHW)
and hurry not with our eyes to diversion (LAHW), …”


“ … and we stretch not our hands toward the forbidden
and stride not with our feet toward the prohibited, …”


“ … and our bellies hold only what Thou hast made lawful
and our tongues speak only what Thou hast exemplified, …”


“ … and we undertake nothing but what brings close to
Thy reward and pursue nothing but what protects from
Thy punishment! “


“Then rid (KHAL-LISw) all of that from the false show (RIYA’) of the
false showers and the fame seeking (SUM-’A) of the fame seekers,
lest we associate (SHIRK) therein anything with Thee or seek
therein any object of desire but Thee! “


“O Allah, bless Muhammad and his Household, in it make us
attend to the appointed moments of the five prayers (SWOLAH)
within the bounds Thou hast set, the obligations Thou hast
decreed, the duties Thou hast assigned, and the times Thou hast
specified;”


“ … and in the prayers make us alight in the station of the keepers
of their stations, the guardians of their pillars, their performers in
their times, as Thy servant and Thy messenger set down in his
Sunna (Thy blessings be upon him and his Household) … “


“ … in their bowings, their prostrations, and all their
excellent acts (FADA-IL), with the most complete and
ample ritual purity (TOHUR) and the most evident and
intense humility (KHUSHU’) “


“Give us success in this month to tighten our bonds of kin with
devotion and gifts, attend to our neighbours with bestowal
and giving, … “


“ … rid our possessions from claims,
purify them through paying the alms, (ZAKAH)… “


“ … go back to him who has gone far from us, treat justly him who
has wronged us, make peace with him who shows enmity toward
us (except him who is regarded as an enemy in Thee and for Thee,
for he is the enemy whom we will not befriend, the party whom
we will not hold dear), … “


“ … and seek nearness to Thee (TAQORRUB) through blameless
works (A’-MAAL-AL-ZAAKIYA) which will purify us (TOHIRNA) from
sins (DZUNUB) and preserve us (A’-SIMUNA) from renewing faults
(‘UYUUB), … “


“ … so that none of Thy angels will bring for Thee the kinds of
obedience and sorts of nearness-seeking unless they be less than
what we bring! “


“O Allah, I ask Thee by the right (BI-HAQQI) of this month and
by the right (BI-HAQQI) of him who worships Thee within it
from its beginning to the time of its passing, whether angel
Thou hast brought nigh to Thee, prophet Thou hast sent, or
righteous servant Thou hast singled out, … ”


“ … that Thou bless Muhammad and his Household, make us
worthy of the generosity Thou hast promised Thy friends, make
incumbent for us what Thou hast made incumbent for those who
go to great lengths in obeying Thee, and place us in the ranks of
those who deserve through Thy mercy the highest elevation! “


” O Allah, bless Muhammad and his Household, turn us aside from
deviation in professing Thy Unity (TAUHEED), falling short in
magnifying Thee, uncertainty in Thy religion, … “


“ … blindness toward Thy path, heedlessness of Thy inviolability,
and being deceived by Thy enemy, the accursed Satan! “


“O Allah, bless Muhammad and his Household, and when in
every night of this month's nights Thou hast necks which Thy
pardon will release and Thy forgiveness disregard, place our
necks among those necks and place us among the best folk and
companions of this our month! “


“O Allah, bless Muhammad and his Household, efface our sins
along with the effacing of its crescent moon, and make us pass
forth from the ill effects of our acts with the passing of its days,
until it leaves us behind, while within it Thou hast purified us of
offenses and rid us of evil deeds! “


“O Allah, bless Muhammad and his Household, and should we
go off to one side in this month, set us aright; should we swerve,
point us straight; and should Thy enemy Satan enwrap us, rescue
us from him! “


“O Allah, fill this month with our worship of Thee, adorn its times
with our obedience toward Thee, help us during its daytime with its
fast, and in its night with prayer and pleading toward Thee, …. “


“ … (KHUSHU’) humility toward Thee, and (ADZILLA) lowliness
before Thee, so that its daytime may not bear witness against
our heedlessness (GHAFLAH), nor its night against our neglect
(TAF-RITw)! “


“O Allah, make us like this in the other months and days as long
as Thou givest us life, and place us among Thy righteous
servants, "those who shall inherit Paradise, therein dwelling
forever" (23:11), “


” … "those who give what they give, while their hearts quake,
that they are returning to their Lord" (23:60), those who "..vie in
good works, outracing to them" (23:61)! “


” O Allah, bless Muhammad and his Household in every time, in
all moments, and in every state, to the number that Thou hast
blessed whomsoever Thou hast blessed … “


” … and to multiples of all that, through multiples which none
can count but Thee! Surely Thou art Accomplisher of what Thou
desirest. “

AA- MIIN !
