Asalam-o-alikum

The Holy month of Ramadhan in the life of a Muslim is an annual cleanser. It cleanses you of all the past misdeeds which border on irreligiousness. It is also a rejuvenator of the mind as much it is a reformer of the soul.

By abstaining from eating and drinking for 29 or 30 days during the Glorious month of Ramadhan, you have reinvigorated your body organs to your own advantage. And by abiding by the rules and regulations of Ramadhan, you have reshaped your life to suit your conscience.

Ramadhan has taught you how to be closer to your creator and sustainer.
It has taught you how to moderate your relationship with your fellow human beings, in your family, your neighborhood and the society at large.
It has also taught you how to simplify your mind, and tame your heart against wrong conducts.    
With Ramadhan, you have learnt how to sympathize with the poor and needy by offering Charity (Zakat), giving financial help, and uttering words of hope.
You have learnt the futility of gluttony and greed
In the first ten days of Ramadhan, you have been showered with Allah’s blessings.
In the second ten days, you have been forgiven of your sins.
In the last ten days you have been liberated from the claws of satanic influence.

During those days, you have woken up in the nights in obedience to the will of Allah. You have spent these days enduring thirst and hunger. And you have also boosted your health with the exercise of fasting and praying. In other words, you have become a renewed person before your creator. Your slate of records has become clean of sin and full of rewards. And now, you have banished the fear of death in you.

Having achieved all these, would you want to go back into a wild world dominated by the fear of death? The essence of Ramadhan is to remind humanity that this world is a transit and not a destination. No one has ever come to stay permanently in this world, and as you and I know, no one will ever do. Would you then want to be lost in transit?
That is the question you should always ask yourself after Ramadhan. If your conscience pricks thereafter or you still fear death, then your Ramadhan has been in vain. And would you wish that? It is one thing to get rewards in the month of Ramadhan having worked for them, and it is another to maintain the rewards after Ramadhan. The latter is as important as the former.

May Allah continue to bless you, your families and the world at large.

Regards.

@ alemo its unfair for you say such a thing regards a religion, there is nothing wrong about trying to follow a way of life that one thinks is right, we all have to know that we are all of one God and there should be no division amongs us and the earlier we tolerate every religion the better. After all its one God one Life.
