~ Ramadan Mubarak ~
Ramadan is the ninth month of the islamic calendar. This whole month, each and every Muslim around the world has to fast, which means they ain't allowed to eat, drink, smoke or participate in anything that is ill-natured or excessive. Fasting is one of the Five Pillars in Islam.
The Five Pillars:
1) Faith
"There's no god worthy of worship except Allah and Muhammad SAW is His Messenger" la ilaha illallah muhammadur rasulullah. To accept Allah and Muhammad SWT from heart.
2) Prayers
Salat is the name of the obligatory prayers which are performed five times a day.
3) The Zakat
One of the most important principles of Islam is that all things belong to Allah. The word 'zakat' means "growth".
4) The fast
Every year in the month Ramadan, all Muslims fasts from first light till sundown. Jaise i wrote sab se upar ^
5) Pilgrimage (Hajj)
The pilgrimage to Makkah - Hajj - is an obligation only for those who are able to perform it.
What not to do in Ramadan:
- No eating drinking while fasting
- No arguing or fighting, avoid sins
- No smoking
- No swearing, lying and talk bad about people behind their back
- Dont waste time on useless activities (Mobile, computer, TV, games..)
- Do not listen to music
What to do in Ramdan:
- Pray your 5 daily Salaah's on time
- Study and learn Islamic knowledge
- Recite and learn the Holy Quran
- Do lots of Dhikr (tasbih)
- Make lots of Dua
- Give in charity and help the poor.

Again, Ramadan Kareem to all the Muslims members. May Allah bless you and your family with a beautiful month of fasting and nearness to Him.
