Ramadan is approaching and people are passing away everyday, young and old. What chance do we sinners have to make it to the blessed month? What's scary is we will still fall into sins because of our nature as humans, or we have sins we struggle to come out from. Now is the time to beg Allāh to allow us to reach this blessed month, and to pardon us for our sins, and to allow us to be firm upon that which pleases Him and to leave off that which displeases Him. Return to Allāh as a slave in need, truly recognising your weaknesses and ask Allāh to help you. Allāh Sees who amongst us is sincere, and if we come with humility as slaves in need of His Forgiveness and Mercy, He will surely give us what we wish and provide for us with abundance! —أبو أصيرم
