The Niyaa for Starting this Blog

SubhanAllah, Ramadan is upon us and I don't think most of us are truly ready for it. Alhamdolillah, the beautiful, heart softening recitation of the Quran by SoCals wonderful reciters helped awaken many of our hearts and minds.

The goal of this blog, as it is specific for the month of Ramadan, is to share some personal reflections of what is read each day in Tarawih Prayer. The Quran should be appreciated for how smooth and easy Allah has made it on the tongues of men, but more thought and reflection and gratitude should be expressed over the gems of wisdom and guidance that Allah has placed therein.

May Allah allow every Muslim to benefit from this blessed month, and may Allah forgive each one of us for our shortcomings in not taking advantage of every moment in it.

Insha Allah, each day a new post with some reflections over a small portion of the Quran will be made available as a reminder to myself and to any other interested brothers and sisters.

Walaikumusalaam

Jazak Allah khair for this blog. It's a great reminder for me to focus on the Qur'an this month, rather than to simply focus on fasting or qiyam, and to look for lessons to draw from it while reading. May all those who read this blog learn from it and may you be rewarded for all your efforts.
