00:00:00 --> 00:00:01

About a year ago my dad

00:00:04 --> 00:00:04

took

00:00:16 --> 00:00:46

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.

00:00:47 --> 00:00:52

Yes. So, do you think? Is there any

00:00:53 --> 00:00:54

thing that we can do extra?

00:00:55 --> 00:01:01

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

00:01:02 --> 00:01:12

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.

00:01:14 --> 00:02:08

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

00:02:08 --> 00:03:02

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

00:03:02 --> 00:03:19

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
