WELCOMING THE MONTH OF RAMADĀN
A month of good and blessings, a month of fasting and prayer, a month of mercy, forgiveness and emancipation from the Fire. A month of generosity, kindness, giving, spending, doing good and benevolence.
The Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) would give glad tidings to his companions of the arrival of this great month. He would encourage them to exert themselves with righteous deeds from the obligations and the supererogatory acts, such as prayer, charity, showing goodness and benevolence, patience upon the obedience of Allāh, filling one's day with the fast and night with prayer, and occupying one's blessed time with remembrance, thanks, glorification of Allāh, saying Lā Ilāha Illa Allāh [none has the right to be worshipped except Allāh] and reciting the Qur'ān.

EVEN IF HE BE IN THE DEPHTS
OF HIS HOME
O dear Muslim! If you are in the habit of spreading your brother's faults among the people, then Allah will certainly expose your own faults and make them known among the people, as the Prophet (صلى الله عليه و سلم) said in a hadith:
"Whosoever pursues the faults of his brother, Allah will pursue his faults and whosoever pursues his brothers faults Allah will expose his faults even if he be in the dephts of his home."
