			This was the fastest Ramadan of my
life. You may feel like you

00:00:03 --> 00:00:06

			haven't done everything you wanted
to do this Ramadan, and in fact,

00:00:06 --> 00:00:09

			you may be thinking about the way
that you wasted it, or maybe

00:00:09 --> 00:00:11

			you're thinking that you tried
your best you really did, but you

00:00:11 --> 00:00:14

			wish that you had done even more.
But do you know what the Prophet

00:00:14 --> 00:00:16

			peace be upon him taught us, for
all of us who are here at the end

00:00:16 --> 00:00:20

			of the month, wishing we had just
done more, regretting and thinking

00:00:20 --> 00:00:23

			like it's already done anyway, the
Prophet, peace be upon him, taught

00:00:23 --> 00:00:27

			us that the person who fasts
during Ramadan out of sincere

00:00:27 --> 00:00:31

			faith hoping to attain Allah's
rewards, all of their past sins

00:00:31 --> 00:00:34

			are forgiven. Not the person who
finishes the Quran as many times

00:00:34 --> 00:00:37

			as they wanted, not the person who
prayed sarawiya for hours every

00:00:37 --> 00:00:41

			single night, not the person who
did all of the Ramadan goals and

00:00:41 --> 00:00:45

			more, the person who fasts hoping
for that reward is that you so why

00:00:45 --> 00:00:49

			don't you think Allah will forgive
you? It's not about whether or not

00:00:49 --> 00:00:50

			you forgive yourself. You.
