﷽‏

18. Enjoy the Blessings of Suhur.

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Eat suḥūr, for indeed there is blessing in it.” (Bukhārī 1923)

19. Eat Dates for Suhur
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “How excellent are dates as the believer’s suhūr.” (Abū Dāwūd 2345)

20. Do You Want Allah to Bless You?
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “There is blessing in eating suḥūr; so, do not skip it, even if one of you has a sip of water. For indeed Allah and His Angels send blessings and mercy on those who eat suhūr.” (Aḥmad 11086)

21. Purify Your Fast From Foul Language.

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “When one of you wakes up fasting, he should neither use obscene language nor act ignorantly. If anyone insults him or argues with him, he should say: ‘I am fasting, I am fasting.’” (Muslim 1151)

“Let there be an aura of tranquility and dignity on the day of your fast. And don’t make the day when you fast the same as the day you don’t fast.” (Jābir b. Abdillāh radiy Allāhu ʿanhumā)

22. Protect Your Fast.

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Whoever does not give up lying and false conduct, Allah has no need in him giving up his food and his drink.” (Bukhārī)

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “There are many who fast, who gain nothing of their fast except hunger; and there are many who stand for the night prayer, who gain nothing of their prayer except sleeplessness.” (Ibn Mājah 1690)

“A man fasts from the pure and lawful, but he breaks his fast with the evil and unlawful: the flesh of his brother (i.e. ruins his fast by backbiting his brother).” (Yāḥyā b. Kathīr)

23. Fast Ramadān with Iman & Sincerity
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Whoever observes the fasts of Ramadān with firm belief and hoping for reward, all his previous sins will be forgiven.” (Bukhārī 2014)

24. Pray Qiyam with Iman & Sincerity
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Whoever stands in prayer at night (qiyām) in the month of Ramaḍān with firm belief and hoping for reward, all his previous sins will be forgiven.” (Bukhārī 2014)

25. Know the Reward of Qiyam with the Imam
The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: “Whoever performs qiyām (night prayer) with the imām until he finishes, Allah will record the qiyām of the (entire) night for him.” (Nasā’ī 1605)

26. Be Generous Like the Prophet in Ramadan.

ʿAbdullāh b. ʿAbbās (radiy Allāhu ʿanhumā) said: “The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was the most generous of all people; and he was the most generous during the month of Ramaḍān when Jibrīl would meet him. Jibrīl would meet him every night in Ramaḍān to study the Qur’ān with him ﷺ. When Jibrīl would meet him, the Messenger of Allah would be more generous than strong winds (which cause rain and prosperity).” (Bukhārī 3220)
