WITNESSING RAMADĀN IS A TEST

WITNESSING RAMADĀN IS A TEST

Witnessing the month of Ramadan is a test, just like with everything else. Whoever fails to attain the forgiveness and mercy of ALLĀH during this month by striving with utmost effort to fulfil ALLĀH'S commands and staying away from HIS prohibitions will be punished and disgraced. Therefore, it is important to make the most of this blessed month and seek ALLĀH'S guidance and blessings to succeed in this test.

Abu Huraira (may ALLĀH be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet ﷺ ascended the pulpit and he said, "Aamīn, Aamīn, Aamīn."

It was said, "O Messenger of ALLĀH, you ascended the pulpit and said Aamīn, Aamīn, Aamīn."

The Prophet ﷺ said, "Verily, Jibrīl came to me and he said: Whoever reaches the month of Ramadān and he is not forgiven, then he will enter Hellfire and ALLĀH will cast him far away (from HIS mercy), so say Aamīn. I said Aamīn..."

{Sahih Ibn Hibba‌n #907}

Note In this Hadith, it appears that Jibrīl (peace be upon him) gave expression to this curse, upon which the Prophet ﷺ said Aamīn. Jibrīl (peace be upon him) advised the Messenger of ALLĀH ﷺ to say Aamīn. Being an angel of such a high mark, Jibrīl‘s giving these curses is sure to be accepted.

This indicates that there is no laxity for anyone who witnesses the month of Ramadān. You may relax in all other months, but not Ramadan!

May ALLĀH shower HIS mercy and blessings upon us, grant us the ability to continue striving towards the path to Jannah, make us of those whom HE is pleased with, and make us emerge from this month with increased faith, inner peace, and righteousness. Aamīn.
