Ramadan Central

This Ramadan, one of my personal goals was to build more dhikr, remembrance of Allah, into my daily routines.

Allah, the Entirely Merciful, has given us the gift of the Quran. During Ramadan, we should take time to reflect on the significance of that glorious gift. We should also express gratitude to the One Who bestowed it.

Shaykh Omar Sulieman may be one of the most well-known household names when it comes to Islamic scholarship in the U.S. today.

Dates are all the craze in the health food world these days. It only takes a quick Google search to discover that the sugary fruit of the date palm tree native to the Middle East is rich in dietary fiber and antioxidants.

A husband and wife are in the kitchen, preparing iftar. The wife sighs in irritation as her husband blocks her path to the refrigerator. “Why are you always standing in my way?” she demands. 

Making dhikr, or engaging in the remembrance of Allah, is a virtuous act that brings magnified reward and blessings. It is a way to express our sincere devotion, hope and trust in Allah, the Most Honorable.
