How to Prepare Ourselves for the Month of Ramadan

As we all know that the month of Ramadan have a great importance in Islam and during this month we increase our religious activities, like prayers, Taraweeh, Itikaaf, Quran recitation and many other activities. The reason why this month is so important is because Quran was revealed in the month of Ramadan. It is strongly emphasized to regularly practice Quran recitation during the month of Ramadan. Every Muslims should recite Quran at least once during this month.

When the month of Ramadan arrives we are supposed to start a new and fresh relation with Allah and all other fellow human beings in their surroundings. In this new relationship we should first declare a sincere repentance of all the sins we have committed in the past so that we can make themselves eligible for the rewards and blessings of Allah in Ramadan.

Here are a few steps in order to prepare ourselves for this blessed month:

· Keep praying regularly so that Allah can give us the chance and good health which will make us to fast in Ramadan.
· Start seeking forgiveness for all our sins before the start of Ramadan.
· Ask Allah to give us strength so that we can fast in the way He wants.
· Seek forgiveness from all our friends, family members and other people whom we think we have hurt in the past.
· To avoid ourselves from backbiting, insulting others and forbidden activities.
· To clean our hearts from hate, jealousy and arrogance.
· To seek blessings from our parents and teachers.

I believe that following these steps is not a tough job to do and once we apply these steps on us I think that it will not be difficult for us to achieve our goals in the month of Ramadan.
