The Season For Righteousness
The Season For Righteousness
Vendors, grocers and all sales professionals have a specific season that they prepare and work hard for. When their season for sales arrives, they set their normal schedules aside, excuse themselves from all non-essential engagements and focus solely on the season at hand. Moreover, they pay less attention to eating and sleeping properly because they remain absorbed in their trade and stay focused on how to take advantage of their particular season in the best manner. These people value this time and embrace hard work because their chance to make huge profits comes only once a year, after which they know they can afford to relax a little.
Likewise, the month of Ramadaan is a season of righteousness for all those who wish to draw nearer to Allaah سبحانه و تعالى and have their sins forgiven. The fasts of such people who remain restless for Allaah's سبحانه و تعالى sake are not only limited to abstinence from food and drink, but their eyes and tongue and all else also remains in a state of fasting. When Muslims remain in a state of fasting from head to toe and raise their hands in supplication at the breaking of the fast (Iftar), then Allaah سبحانه و تعالى will grant whatever they wish for.
[Shaykh Zulfiqar Ahmad]
