Mirza Yawar Baig – Ramadan 2024 Reminders #28

00:00:09 --> 00:00:10

My brothers and sisters,

00:00:11 --> 00:00:12

Rasulullah

00:00:12 --> 00:00:13

said

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

in the Hadith reported by

00:00:18 --> 00:00:19

and say Muslim.

00:00:30 --> 00:00:31

He said, someone who

00:00:32 --> 00:00:32

fasts

00:00:33 --> 00:00:34

the month of Ramadan

00:00:35 --> 00:00:37

and follows it up with 6 days of

00:00:37 --> 00:00:39

fasting in Shawwal,

00:00:39 --> 00:00:40

in the month of Shawwal,

00:00:41 --> 00:00:44

it will be as if he fasted for

00:00:44 --> 00:00:45

the entire year.

00:00:45 --> 00:00:47

Whoever fasts the month of Ramadan

00:00:48 --> 00:00:50

and then follows it with 6 days of

00:00:50 --> 00:00:52

fasting in the month of Shawwal,

00:00:52 --> 00:00:55

it will be as if he fasted for

00:00:55 --> 00:00:57

the entire year and this is in Sahih

00:00:57 --> 00:00:58

Muslim.

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

Allah gives a reward of 1 is to

00:01:02 --> 00:01:05

10, so 1 Ramadan is equal to 10

00:01:05 --> 00:01:08

months, and then the 6 days is equal

00:01:08 --> 00:01:10

to 60 days. That's 2 months. That gives

00:01:10 --> 00:01:13

us the whole year. Alhamdulillah. This is a

00:01:13 --> 00:01:14

beautiful thing to do. Like

00:01:15 --> 00:01:18

I have said before, Islam, small deeds, big

00:01:18 --> 00:01:21

rewards. This is one of the examples of

00:01:21 --> 00:01:21

that.

00:01:22 --> 00:01:22

The

00:01:23 --> 00:01:27

easiest way is to start fasting immediately after

00:01:27 --> 00:01:28

the 3 days of age is over

00:01:29 --> 00:01:31

and finish 6, but that 6 need not

00:01:31 --> 00:01:33

be done like that. I'm just saying that's

00:01:33 --> 00:01:35

easiest way. That's the way I usually do

00:01:35 --> 00:01:37

it, and that's why and so I recommend

00:01:37 --> 00:01:38

it. But it's not necessary to do it

00:01:38 --> 00:01:40

like that. You can do one day. As

00:01:40 --> 00:01:43

long as the 6 days is completed within

00:01:43 --> 00:01:45

the month of Shawwal,

00:01:45 --> 00:01:46

you are good.

00:01:47 --> 00:01:49

For those who have to make up the,

00:01:50 --> 00:01:53

any missed fasts, for example, the sisters who

00:01:53 --> 00:01:56

have who missed fast because of their periods

00:01:56 --> 00:01:56

and so on.

00:01:57 --> 00:01:58

Ideally speaking,

00:01:59 --> 00:02:01

this this can be made up at any

00:02:01 --> 00:02:04

time of the year. So I would suggest

00:02:04 --> 00:02:06

do the shawwal fast in shawwal because you

00:02:06 --> 00:02:09

cannot do those any at any other time.

00:02:09 --> 00:02:11

Complete the 6th fast of Shawwal,

00:02:11 --> 00:02:13

and then do your Hadar fast,

00:02:14 --> 00:02:16

inshallah, at some other

00:02:16 --> 00:02:17

time of the year,

00:02:18 --> 00:02:20

that is best. Instead of trying to

00:02:22 --> 00:02:23

do the hadha fast,

00:02:24 --> 00:02:27

in Shawwal. Better to do them in

00:02:28 --> 00:02:29

another part of

00:02:31 --> 00:02:33

in another part of the year because you

00:02:33 --> 00:02:35

have the freedom to do that

00:02:35 --> 00:02:37

at any any other time of the year.

00:02:37 --> 00:02:38

So

00:02:38 --> 00:02:39

do not miss this.

00:02:42 --> 00:02:44

Fasting of Shawwal is very important. It's a

00:02:44 --> 00:02:46

great blessing from Allah.

00:02:46 --> 00:02:48

Why would you want to miss it? To

00:02:48 --> 00:02:48

don't

00:02:49 --> 00:02:51

miss it. And, inshallah, we ask Allah to

00:02:51 --> 00:02:53

grant us Ramadan in,

00:02:54 --> 00:02:56

good health and in Imad and enable us

00:02:56 --> 00:02:57

to

00:02:57 --> 00:02:59

maximize the benefit of it.
