So I was sick for the middle week of Ramadan, and thought “hey, why don’t I learn from this and share that”

Inside:
- 3 Negatives and 3 Positives for a Muslim that is sick
- A very unexpected educational point (I hope it doesn’t gross you out)
- A word of advice (and words to constantly remember) from the Prophet, peace be upon him.

Narrated Jabir: “The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, visited Umm as-Sa’ib while she was sighing. He asked, ‘What is wrong with you?’ ‘The fever,’ she replied, “May Allah debase it!’ The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, ‘Gently! Do not curse it. It removes the sins of the believer as the fire removes the impurities of iron.’Muslim

Narrated ‘Aisha: (the wife of the Prophet) Allah’s Apostle said, No calamity befalls a Muslim but that Allah expiates some of his/her sins because of it, even though it were the prick of a thorn.” Bukhari

Narrated Abu Sa’id Al-Khudri and Abu Huraira: The Prophet said, No fatigue, nor disease, nor sorrow, nor sadness, nor hurt, nor distress befalls a Muslim, even if it were the prick he receives from a thorn, but that Allah expiates some of his sins for that.” Bukhari

Where do you go after Ramadan?
Where do you go after Ramadan?

It is said that “it takes 21 days to build a habit” but so many people keep saying they weren’t able to maintain much after Ramadan.

With Ramadan being 30 days that should guarantee fantastic new habits in our lives such as more Quran, longer prayers, less distractions. Unfortunately, that’s not the case.

The problem obviously is not with Ramadan , but our approach to Ramadan

In this two-part article, we’ll first focus on understanding the problem and then explore solutions. Full version is exclusively on MuslimMatters.org
