			About a year ago my dad
		

			took
		

			a Salam o Alaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh hamdu lillah wa salatu wa salam ala Rasulillah Abdullah
team again, now we are I think progressively getting involved in in the spirit of Ramadan. Yes.
Because Subhanallah Ramadan is a very, very special month as we already mentioned, and it has so
many, you know, ways that we can get closer to Allah subhanho wa taala. Yes.
		

			Yes. So, do you think? Is there any
		

			thing that we can do extra?
		

			In the month of Ramadan? By which we can get closer to Allah? subhanaw taala? Yes.
		

			Are we encouraged to do Allah, Allah acts of charity? In Ramadan? Again, it's one of the pillars of
Islam Subhan Allah, yes. Charity.
		

			We have two types of charity, right? Yes. One is the compulsory charity, which we call it Zakka. And
this is not for everyone, only for those who are eligible to give just 2.5% of, you know, charity
from their annual savings, and other is voluntary charity. We know that Subhanallah Muslims around
the globe, they tend to give charity, the compulsory charities occur in the month of Ramadan,
because obviously the rewards are multiplied into, you know, multiple times SubhanAllah. So,
obviously, when we have an opportunity, an environment, a support system, a way that can be adopted
is by giving Zakah in the month of Ramadan, it will be more beneficial. Yes. And also, when we get
		

			these types of general deeds. We're like, why, why should I miss this? I should accept it.
Absolutely. Absolutely. Because opportunities don't come very frequently. So when you have an
opportunity, you grab it, and you gain absolute Hassanein from Allah subhanaw taala. We are also
known, you know, we are also informed from the authentic traditions of the Prophet peace be upon him
that he used to be generous all the times. But when Ramadan comes to us to become extremely
generous, which means a reminder for us that apart from the the car, we need to be encouraged to
spend every single day even if it's wonder if you do it with sincerity Insha Allah, it will act like
		

			a great has an ad for us in sha Allah. So yes, we are definitely encouraged to do lots and lots of
charity, particularly in the month of Ramadan because of the blessing factor that is involved in it
in sha Allah, the EVO my dad
		

			then to carry
