All Praise Due to Allah, Ramadan is approaching us.
How are we preparing ourselves to make the most of this blessed month?
During a time in which we do our best to devote ourselves to our Lord and better ourselves in all aspects of our lives. Learning and using the names and attributes of Allah is a great use of our time.
Discover the profound benefits of learning the 99 names of Allah this Ramadan.
Each name is a key to understanding His infinite nature and mercy. By familiarising ourselves with these names, we open our hearts to deeper insights and a more fulfilling Ramadan experience.
How can we do this?
Daily Focus: Assign each day of Ramadan to a specific name or two of Allah. This way, you can focus on understanding and reflecting upon the names per day, allowing for a deeper and more intentional contemplation.
Seek Knowledge: Read the explanations of names in detail, understanding their differences and the way Allah presents them to us. Be sure to source authentic texts that are in accordance with the Qur’an and Sunnah. This broadens our understanding, as it is important not to simply leave it to our own interpretation.
Personal Reflections: Reflect on how each name of Allah relates to your personal life. Contemplate how you have experienced this attribute of Allah in your own journey. This personal connection can make the reflection more impactful.
Seek Relevance in the Qur’an: Ramadan is the month of the Qur’an. Find verses in the Qur'an where these names are mentioned. Understanding the context in which these names appear in the Qur'an can provide a deeper insight into their meanings.
Incorporate in Prayers and Duaa: During your daily prayers and dua, especially in the important moments of Suhoor, Breaking Fast and Tahajjud, reflect upon the name of the day. Incorporate the attributes of Allah into your supplications, acknowledging Allah’s greatness and seeking to receive the essence of those attributes.
