About this Course

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "There has come to you Ramadan, a blessed month, which Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, has enjoined you to fast. In it the gates of the heavens are opened and the gates of Hellfire are closed, and the devils are chained. In it Allah has a night which is better than a thousand months; whoever is deprived of its goodness is indeed deprived." [Saheeh al-Nisaa'i]

This course goes through selections from, "The Believer's Handbook for Ramadan" by Muhammad ibn James Sutton in order to familiarize oneself and prepare for the blessed month of Ramadan, insha'Allah.
