Seekersguidance Podcast - Islam, Islamic Knowledge, Quran, And The Guidance Of The Prophet Muhammad

Shaykh Faraz Rabbani shared five key spiritual lessons related to fasting and the month of Ramadan. These same lessons are a means to prepare for Ramadan and reflection upon changing our relationship with Allah. These lessons of fasting and Ramadan are taken from verses 183-187 of Sura al-Baqara, and are nurturing: (1) A living relationship with the Qur'an; (2) Mindfulness (taqwa) of Allah; (3) Gratitude (shukr); (4) Magnifying Allah (takbir), by making Allah the greatest concern in our lives; and (5) the most important--and ultimate--aim of fasting: realizing the reality of Allah's Closeness. This khutba was delivered at the Bosnian Islamic Centre, as part of SeekersGuidance Canada's community outreach and engagement.
