Page 2 — Deeds and Virtues of Ramadan

Enough is the period of Suhur interval for 50verse, Blessing the soul in a state of adverse.

Ar-Rayyan; The gate for the one who fast,Up above, in the heavens are the gates of mercy open wide and vast.

Sunnah is to hasten ifthar,As the sky darkens, and gleams the star.

I'tikaaf in 3 masjids alone,Away from worldly needs, desires; off goes the phone.

Narrates Ayesha (RA), AsSalatul- Qiyaam never beyond eleven,Prayers proceeds as the hours tic over the odds and even.

The Quest for Lailatul-Qadr in the last ten,With Peace, and Blessing that reach the Earth then.

Better than 1000months is the night of Decree,Out of faith and mercy is the soul forgiven and made sin-free.

Begging pardon and pleading are the odd night,Dua'as and prayers towards the path thats right!

Zakathul-Fitr is an obligation, And Eid-ul-Fitr goes in congregation.

Taqwah and self-control are lessons learnt in Ramadhaan,To purify the soul and guide the righteous man.

The worldly struggles and overcoming the devil,Living for Akhirah becomes the pious soul's survival...!
