Most
Muslims prepare for Ramadan by buying all sorts of food and cooking
many types of dishes! Our forefathers -salaf al-salih- used to
prepare buy repenting and asking Allah Ta’ala to grant them life
and time to reach Ramadhan. The Prophet (SAAWS) used to give a long
sermon at the end of Sha'ban, and tell his companions (Sahaba) the
excellent virtues of the coming month i.e. Ramadan.
I hope that each and every one of us will start from now preparing
for Ramadan
by repenting (Tawbah) and by having the full intention and will to
do his at most effort during this virtues month to please Allah.
