How Do We Welcome Ramaḍān?
Sh. Ibn Bāz رحمه الله stated: "I do not know of anything specific for welcome Ramaḍān except that the Muslim receives it with happiness, cheerfulness, great pleasure and thankfulness that Allāh has brought Ramaḍān to him, as well as being thankful for making him from the successful whom He has allowed to live (during this month) and be from those who compete in righteous actions.
Indeed, witnessing a new Ramaḍān is an immense blessing from Allāh and due to this fact the Prophet ﷺ used to give glad tidings to his Companions at the commencement of Ramaḍān, exemplifying it's merits and what Allāh has prepared from the fast rewards for those who fast and stand in prayer.
And it is legislated that the Muslim receives this noble month by making sincere repentance.
