For those that are fasting... I received this email
As salaamu alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatahu,
I hope you are all keeping very well
Here is a lovely hadith for Day 1, and a few little tips to start afresh this month:
Hadith: Allah's Apostle said, "When the month of Ramadan starts, the gates of the heaven are opened and the gates of Hell are closed and the devils are chained." [Bukhari]
Spiritual Detox for Ramadan:
1. Keep free from eating hi calorie flesh (gossip) of others, no matter how juicy.
2. Switch to fat free truths
3. Avoid artificial tempers
4. Do voice therapy through reciting the Qur'an
5. Purify your eyes by crying in Du'a
6. Do hand reflexology on tasbeeh
7. Brighten your smile, using a miswaak
8. Take the weight off your shoulders by paying your zakat/ and giving sadaqah
9. Shrug off those extra sins by repenting
Ramadan Mubarak!
Attached is a newsletter I put together at DB, with some great checklists and planners for us all to make the most of this month...
Do take it easy this month
