Just Another Ramadan?
By Idris Tawfiq
When it comes to Ramadan, we're all "new Muslims." We may be good at putting on a good show, even fooling ourselves at times that our intentions are pure, yet when our foreheads touch the ground in prayer we are all novices in serving our Creator.
Ramadan is that special gift of Allah which allows all of us to return to Him, whether we have been Muslim for fifty years or for five minutes. It is a time when we can honestly take a look at how we have been living our lives over the last year, and resolve to improve and be better Muslims in the year ahead.
It is the time for us to declare once more with our lips and to mean with our whole heart and mind that there is no created being worthy of worship other than Allah alone, and that Muhammad (peace be upon him) is His Messenger.
Let's be honest. We talk about "calling others to Islam," yet very often we are the ones who don't even get up in the morning to pray. We invite others to be Muslim, yet often we pay them very little regard once they have declared Shahadah and accepted Islam.
Ramadan, then, is a time for all of us to re-think how things have been going. It is a time to set things straight once more, to put our spiritual house in order and to re-set our priorities as Muslims.
How many people in the world would love such a chance to start over again, to put aside the mistakes of the past and to set off once more in the right direction. We have only to look around us to see that many people in the world are lost in the pursuit of worldly things or of selfish ambitions, clutching at this or that to bring them happiness. Their happiness can only be found in Allah Himself.
This Ramadan, we might try to remember just how blessed we are in having been called to be Muslim from all the people on the earth. It was Allah's plan from the beginning of time that we would be Muslim. How beautiful it is for us to read these words in the Quran which mean:
[This day have I perfected your religion for you, completed My favor on you and chosen for you Islam as your religion.] (Al-Ma'idah 5:3)
How we should reflect on these words each day of Ramadan, imagining Allah Almighty speaking the words to each one of us, reminding us what we are fasting for. Continue Reading Here

For each Muslim, the advent of Ramadan brings different meanings. While there are those who welcome Ramadan with a deep passion for its benefits and blessings, there are also those who feel its burdens and difficulties and yet those welcoming it solely for the sake of the festive Hari Raya celebrations that come after Ramadan.
The diversity in response is a manifestation of the level of iman and taqwa of each individual. The fact, however, remains that Ramadan is a holy and glorious month the month of worship, the month of al-Qur an and the month to multiply manifold our acts of worship and level of iman. Indeed, Ramadan is full of wisdom and meanings.
The dawn of Ramadan should be welcomed with deep sense of gratitude and humility. Other than completing the fast of Ramadan, we should also intensify accompanying charitable deeds like sharing food with our neighbours during the breaking of fast, involving in voluntary works, performing the meritorious Tarawih and Tadarus.
