#RamadanDailyDigest: Why Have You Been Playing Since Ramadan Day 1?

Are you one of those fasting Muslims who have been playing since Ramadan Day 1 in terms of the different acts of worship? Ramadan Daily Digest will try to highlight why every fasting Muslim should be up and doing regarding different acts of worship as Ramadan clocks eight days after sunset today.

Have you been playing since Ramadan Day 1? This question is directed towards you. There are important acts of worship that you might have not started doing in Ramadan which shows you need to buckle up.

1. Daily recitation of the Glorious Qur'an

The Glorious Qur'an is the most important book in the life of all Muslims. Every Muslim is expected to recite at least a verse from it daily. In the month of Ramadan however, all fasting Muslims are expected to recite hundreds of verses daily. The Glorious Qur'an was revealed to Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) in the month of Ramadan. The month of Ramadan is all about reciting so many verses.

If you have not opened the Glorious Qur'an from Ramadan Day 1 up to now, it is not too late to begin now. Even if you cannot recite the Glorious Qur'an in Arabic language, the Glorious Qur'an is surely available in your mother tongue or for you in English language.

2. Taraweeh and Tahajjud prayers

Taraweeh is similar to Tahajjud, however Taraweeh is specific to the month of Ramadan. Taraweeh could be observed immediately after Salaatul Ishaa or delayed to late night. Tahajjud prayers are best observed at home starting from late night, or after midnight. You can observe Tahajjud with your wives and children, or alone as the case might be.


3. Listening and attending Tafseer

Tafseer is a type of lecture where the meaning of the Glorious Qur'an is explained by a Muslim scholar or preacher inside a Mosque. 

In the present day world, you can listen to Tafseer via different online channels and social media platforms. You can decide to go to the Mosque also to have a first hand feeling of the Tafseer.

Have you been playing or reciting the Glorious Qur'an?



4. Dhikr and supplications

Dhikr is an Arabic word which simply means remembrance in English language. Therefore Dhikr and supplications involved quietly chanting the praises of Allaah and His beautiful names.

There are other acts of worship apart from the above mentioned four that you can do too.
