The Balance of Ramadan | Mufti Menk

0:00اور دستیника 새، except the Cabine is an active worship as a机통ار is an active worship as a boarding action, ایت بلیے زیrukt کرنا تو ایت سابھانا ہر that will suffice the King of Bahraht's طاول کرن ہے بھی Eso اس ومقنی سا Close the Division of Children Threat 버ugu and the mother of the state would stay away from the adultery from gambling from smoking from drugs from various بی کم فرم اللہ سبحانہ و اتعالہ سو اللہ مید از and اللہ نوز that we will be living in environments that may not be Islamic we will be living in an environment perhaps where sin will be so easy to commit we will be living in an environment where perhaps it will not be so simple to come to the masjid unless you have a lot of will power and a lot of e-man اللہ سبحانہ و اتعالہ نوز that to abstain from Haram will be a challenge اللہ نوز that we will be living across the entire globe Muslim lands, non-Muslim lands and so on he knows that you and I will exist and are existing

1:03and he knows who is to come after us so he has set a plan and that plan is in order to help us pull through in a way that we earn Jannah, may Allah grant us Jannah I mean what is this beautiful plan? Part of it is to give us a gift known as Ramadan amazing and this Ramadan is such that اللہ the timing of it is absolutely perfect imagine if throughout the globe everyone had to have Ramadan at exactly the same time in the Gregorian year which means say for example now we have June and July throughout the life of an individual where you are living it's always in June and July it won't be fair because sometimes you will have a cold fast sometimes a fast in the heat, sometimes a long one, sometimes a short one the people in the UK are literally struggling at the moment achieving a greater reward for their dedication for fasting 18 to 20 hours right now but they will be smiling all the way when their fast is only about 6 to 8 hours

2:05sometime 30 years down the line perhaps may Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala grant us an understanding look at how fair Allah is, look at how balanced He is so you will taste a long fast, a short fast one in summer, one in winter and it keeps on moving 10 days up every single year that is the disparity between the lunar and the solar calendars may Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala help us understand His justice similarly can you imagine a Ramadan that happened to have been less than 30 days, 29 days? less say Ramadan was one week just as we are rolling in and warming up it's over we would not achieve the proper spirituality Allah knows that you need one whole month out of the 12 months you need the entire month, imagine if Ramadan was longer than a month perhaps we would lose focus because you know it climaxes round the end amazingly 21, 23, 25, 27 and we are climaxed right at the top it's at the end the massage it get even more packed do you agree? SubhanAllah that's the power of Allah

3:06but if we had two months one wonders perhaps a month later people would start losing focus and one wonders whether that dedication to the Quran would actually be there amazing you have 30 Jews of the Quran and you have 29 to 30 days of Ramadan amazing how Allah has married all this, matched it in such a beautiful way for us who are His worshippers
