Sha'ban

Its the beginning of Sha'baan and we realise Ramadhan is near.  As Ramadan approaches, all Muslims should prepare for Ramadan with the fasting of Sha'ban. It is a time to thank Allah for his mercy and blessings.  The month of Sha'ban is a month of fasting and great rewards from Allah. Sha'ban is a voluntary or suggested fast. 

‘Aa’ishah (may Allaah be pleased with her) said: “The Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) used to fast until we thought he would never break his fast, and not fast until we thought he would never fast. I never saw the Messenger of Allaah fasting for an entire month except in Ramadaan, and I never saw him fast more than he did in Sha’baan.” (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, no. 1833; Muslim, no. 1956).

Found an article on the month of Sha'baan. Posting it next to share it with all.

May Allah guide all of us to the right path.
