2. TARATUBETake on Tarawih of 20 cycles like how we take on Youtube.
Like how we take a 2 mins video after a 2 mins video and then we
continue with many many 2 mins videos for one hour!
So take the Tarawih like Youtube; 2 raka’at or cycles after 2 cycles
and continue with another 2 cycles until we reach 20 raka’at!
And may this recompensate us for the times we have “invested”
in Youtube and not Him.

3. TARACUPToday is the 15th of Ramadhan. It is already half of the month.
2 weeks gone out of 4 weeks. If you are in a soccer title match, and in the first
half, you are 2 goals behind to nil. What happens in the second half?
So if you scored zero for the first 2 weeks or first half of Ramadhan.
Do as what you would in the soccer title match. Just remember the cup here is
not a stone but forgiveness of all our past sins.

4. TARACUP
Just remember the cup here is not a stone but forgiveness of all our past sins.
The Messenger of Allāh ‫ﷺ‬ said: ”Whoever establishes (voluntary) prayers
during the nights of Ramadan faithfully out of sincere faith and hoping to
attain Allah's rewards (not for showing off), all his past sins will be forgiven.”
(Bukhari)

5. TARABIZThe Messenger of Allāh ‫ﷺ‬ said: ”Whoever seeks to draw close to Allah
in it (month of Ramadhan)with a good deed will be rewarded like
someone who performed a compulsory action at another time.
Whoever performs a compulsory action in it will be rewarded like
someone who performed seventy compulsory actions at another time.
It is the month of steadfastness (sabr) and the reward of steadfastness is
Paradise. It is the month of charity. It is the month in which a believer’s
provision is increased.”

6. TARABIZAbu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (May Allah exalt his mention and
protect him from imperfection) said, “While a man was walking through a barren land, he heard a voice
coming out of a cloud saying: ‘Irrigate the garden of so-and-so.’ Thereupon the cloud drifted in a certain
direction and discharged its water over a rocky plain. The streamlets flowed into a channel. This man followed
the channel until it reached a garden and he saw the owner of the garden standing in its center, working with
his spade spreading the water (changing the course of the water). He asked him: “O slave of Allah, what is
your name?” He told his name, which was the same that he heard from the cloud. The owner of the garden
then asked him: “O slave of Allah, why did you ask my name?” He replied: “I heard a voice from a cloud which
poured down this water saying: ‘Irrigate the garden of so-and-so.’ I would like to know what do you do with
it.” He said: “Now that you asked me, I will tell you. I estimate the produce of the garden and distribute one-
third of it in charity, I spend one-third on myself and my family and invest one third back into the garden.”

The Messenger of Allāh ‫ﷺ‬ said: "When a Muslim, or a believer, washes his face (in the course of wuḍūʾ),
every sin which he committed with his eyes, will be washed away from his face with water, or with the
last drop of water; when he washes his hands, every sin which is committed by his hands will be effaced
from his hands with the water, or with the last drop of water; and when he washes his feet, every sin his
feet committed will be washed away with the water, or with the last drop of water; until he finally
emerges cleansed of all his sins.'' (Muslim)

Umar ibn Al-Khattab (‫عنه‬ ‫هللا‬ ‫)رضي‬ reported: The Messenger of Allāh ‫ﷺ‬ said, "Whoever of you
performs Wudu' carefully and then affirms: ‘I testify that there so no true god except Allāh Alone,
Who has no partners and that Muhammad ‫ﷺ‬ is His slave and Messenger],’ the eight gates of
Jannah are opened for him. He may enter through whichever of these gates he desires (to enter).''

The Messenger of Allāh ‫ﷺ‬ said: “Allāh and His angels say ṣalāh upon the front rows, and the
mu‘aẓẓin will be forgiven as far as his voice reaches, and whatever hears him, wet or dry, will
confirm what he says, and he will have a reward like that of those who pray with him.” [Ahmad,
Nasa-i, Thabarany]
“Your Lord, the Exalted, is pleased with a shepherd of goats at the peak of a mountain, who makes
the call to prayer (gives the Aẓān) and offers prayer. Allāh, the Exalted, says, “Look at this servant
of mine; he gives the Aẓān and Iqama for prayer out of fear for Me. I have forgiven my slave and
entered him into Paradise.” [Abi Dawud, Nasa-i, Ahmad]
“Paradise is affirmed for him who pronounces the Aẓān, sixty Hasanat (good deeds) will be
written for him, and for every iqāmah, he will get thirty Hasanat.” [Ibn Majah, ad-Darul-Qutni, al-Hakim]

11. RAMABIZSayyiduna Salman al-Farisi (may Allāh be pleased with him) relates that the
Messenger of Allāh ‫ﷺ‬ said:
“If a man is in a deserted land and the time of prayer arrives, thus he performs
ablution (wuḍūʾ); and if he does not find water he performs the dry ablution
(tayammum). If he gives the Iqama [and offers prayer], his two angels offer
prayer with him, and if he gives the Aẓān and Iqama, an army of Allāh pray
behind him – the two sides of which is not visible [due to it’s sheer number].”

14. 1. Verily! We have sent it (this Qur'an) down in the night of Al-Qadr (Decree)
2. And what will make you know what the night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is?
3. The night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is better than a thousand months (i.e.
worshipping Allah in that night is better than worshipping Him a thousand
months, i.e. 83 years and 4 months).
4. Therein descend the angels and the Ruh [Jibrael (Gabriel)] by Allah's Permission
with all Decrees,
5. Peace! (All that night, there is Peace and Goodness from Allah to His believing
slaves) until the appearance of dawn.

I will not serve Allah like a laborer, in expectation of my wages.
O Allah! If I worship You for fear of Hell, burn me in Hell,
and if I worship You in hope of Paradise, exclude me from Paradise.
But if I worship You for Your Own sake, grudge me not Your everlasting Beauty.
O my Lord, whatever share of this world You have bestowed on me, bestow it to
my enemies, and whatever share of the next world You have for me, give it to my
friends. You are enough for me.

17. If I repent now will God forgive me?
No, but if God forgives you, you will repent.
He does not refuse sustenance to the one who speaks ill of Him.
How then could He refuse sustenance to the one whose soul is over
flowing with love for Him?
O Beloved of Hearts, I beseech only You. Have pity this day on those
who turn to You. My Hope, my Rest, my Delight, this heart can love
none other but You..

19. We are not Rābiʻah al-ʻAdawīyah, we are not her “level” and maybe can never be and never will.
Still, we should not stop hoping for rewards from Allah. Because Rasulullah ‫ﷺ‬ told us to hope for
reward from Allah. So be humble! Be obedient!
The Messenger of Allāh ‫ﷺ‬ said: “Whoever spends the night of Laylatul-Qadr in prayer out of faith
and in the hope of reward, will be forgiven his previous sins.”
But take her words to remind us that it is a long road for us, so we should not be satisfied with our
acts of good deeds. And that we should be constant and steadfast in our ibadah and always strive
to increase in our feelings for Allah.
May Allah guide us all always and all ways.

20. The Messenger of Allāh ‫ﷺ‬ said: “Whoever spends the night of Laylatul-Qadr in prayer out of faith
and in the hope of reward, will be forgiven his previous sins.”
Aa’ishah (May Allah be pleased with her) said: I said:
“O Messenger of Allaah, If I know which night is Laylat al-Qadr, what should I say?”
He said: “Say: Allaahumma innaka ‘afuwwun tuhibbul- ‘afwa fa’fu ‘anni (O
Allaah, You are All-Forgiving and You love forgiveness so forgive me).”
“O people! When the great, blessed month (Ramadan) comes to you, do lots of these four acts in it.
Two acts with which you would please your Lord and two acts with which you cannot do
without. As for the two which please your Lord, they are the testimony that there is no God but
Allah and the seeking of His forgiveness. As for the two acts that you cannot do without, you
should seek paradise from your Lord and seek protection from hell fire.”
