In the name of Allah, the most Merciful, the most Kind
A blessed month is casting its shadow upon us A night of this month is better than a thousand months Bear with patience for the sake of Ar-Rahman It's a continuous training to strengthen our Imaan.
Glory be to Allah who sent Ramadan as a mercy to mankind Its a purification of our soul, our heart, and our mind With the most sincere devotion and love we fast To be cleansed and free from sins of the past
Glorified is He, who choseth this holy month, To test our sabr and fill our hearts with warmth Of his Divine Light, His blessings shall glow, The Seer of the unseen, all He does know
Ya Allah! For thee, let my breath be more pleasant than musk Ya Allah! For thee, let me be thankful when day turns to dusk My thoughts and heart are purified, my eyes truly see' This blessed month, the month of spiritual rhapsody!
Ya Allah! For thee, my life I shall live! Ya Allah! For thee, my soul I shall give! In the name of Allah, the most Merciful, the most Kind, Praise be to Allah, who sent Ramadan as a gift to mankind

One night I heard a knock on my door; Who can it be,I wasn't quite sure. I open the door and am filled with glee; The visitor ahead is no stranger to me.
I welcome the guest with utmost delight; For I know it has come to give me respite. An air of happiness fills the space; My home now seems, a better place!
Have you any clue who this visitor could be? Yes!its Ramadhan,the month of mercy. The pious and righteous can't await its arrival; Others seem to greet it, with waves of denial.
For Allah(SWT) we fast from dawn to dusk; For Him our breath is the fragrance of musk. The muslims who pray and fast with zest; Are aware of the rewards of this month manifest.
Throughout this month we weep and repent; Now is the time to strongly lament. And those who shun this sacred month; on the Day of Reckoning will face the brunt.
In the last ten nights,hides the Night of Decree; Allah(SWT) then awaits for his slaves to plea. The angels descend with Gabriel(AS) in the lead; To check on the steadfast and record every deed.
A feeling of grief now fills my heart; As the month of Ramadhan will soon depart. So lets make a start and worship Him alone; Now that the worth of this month is known

Ramadan in a Muslim Country
A new night of the sacred month the thin slice of the moon; the crescent visible only a few minutes to the naked eye
A sight beautiful signaling new, fresh
Greetings one to the other: Ramadan Mubarakh
And a few hours later sounds of drums Wake up! Wake up! have a meal, a simple glass of water! Before the first light, before you begin the fast, make the intention Wake up! Wake up!
And the day progresses, a slowing down; restaurants closed, coffee houses empty.
And workers begin their trek home early
Late afternoon, the speciality stores open selling the special once a year snacks, crowds flocking and moving hurriedly collecting their Iftar (break fast)
And mothers prepare the traditional meals taking extra time for the fasting family
Only an hour before the sun sets city streets empty, as in a curfew,
And now only a few minutes, family and friends gather around the table making small talk awaiting the moment...silence...
Allah-hu Akbar Allah-hu Akbar Allah-hu Akbar Allah-hu Akbar (God is great)
Ash-hadu an la illaha illal-lah Ash-hadu an la illaha illal-lah (I witness that there is no God except Allah)
Ash-hadu anna Mohammadan rasoolol lah Ash-hadu anna Mohammadan rasoolol lah (I witness that Mohammad is the Prophet of Allah)
Hay-ye alas-slat Hay-ye alas-slat (Hurry up for prayer)
Hay-ye alal falah Hay-ye alal falah (Hurry up for prosperity)
Allah-hu Akbar Allah-hu Akbar
La illaha illal-lah La illaha illal-lah (There is no God except Allah)
And the siren, signalling the sun dipping below the horizon
And together, some with dates, some with a pinch of salt "We take this food in the name of Allah, most gracious, ever merciful"
Prayers given and later friends and family mill around, some content others tired, but all happy on this day of Ramadan... Peace

The holy month of Ramadan For all Muslims has begun. Praising Allah through the day, From dawn to dusk we fast and pray. We pay zakah (charity) for those in need, Trying hard to do good deeds.
When the sun has set, and day is done- I'll break this chain, but only one. By the end of Ramadan, this whole chain will be all gone! It's time for Eid and lots of fun!!!

Ramadhan is here, Here is Ramadhan. Ramadhan is coming, The time that is blessed. Ramadhan is coming, The time we love best. The month in which the Qur'an was sent; A time of great blessing in which to repent. Fasting for Allah is a great Muslim deed; Controlling desires and Suppressing greed.
Ramadhan is coming, Increase your Iman. Ramadhan is coming, Recite the Qur'an. Taking "Sahur" in the dead of the Night; No eating no drinking during the daylight. Refrain from bad deeds and repent your soul; The pleasure of Allah is our only goal.
Ramadan is coming, so let us prepare. Ramadan is coming; there is peace everywhere, Even if there is hunger, remember your Lord And wait until 'Iftar' to earn your reward. Fasting is one of the gifts of Allah Given to believers to increase 'Taqwah'.
Ramadan is here, here is Ramadan. Ramadan is coming, so seek the new Moon. Ramadan is coming, it will be here soon. We pray to Allah to put right our hearts; Ask for forgiveness from Allah and make a new start.
Raising our hands we ask for his 'Rahmaat Hear us our Lord and grant us 'Janna
