During the month of Ramadan, the last thing on a fasting Muslim’s mind is probably exercise. Helping to manage my family’s martial arts gym, I have witnessed firsthand the dwindling attendance rates of our Muslim clients of late.

Salah or prayer, is a special form of obligatory worship for Muslims. Taken into retrospect it can be seen as a journey of seeking a deeper connection with Allah, yet many of us grapple with maintaining that profound sense of khushu or consciousness in it, throughout.

Ramadan offers special memories for families and many of them revolve around making and eating good food.

Praise be to Allah! The crescent has been sighted and the Holy Month of Ramadan has arrived. Muslims around the world unite in worshiping Allah by refraining from food, drink, and worldly desires while increasing their acts of worship.

"We need a Ramadan." 

If you would like to commit to a daily practice this Ramadan that will help you reflect deeply on your habits, take concrete steps toward self-improvement and grow closer to Allah, then you should consider reading My Beloved: A series of reflections on the Names and Attributes of Allah in eve

Alhamdulillah, praise be to Allah, the blessed month of fasting and spiritual reflection is nearly upon us. Muslims around the world are preparing, whether it is physically, mentally, or spiritually to make the best of the holy month.
