Keep Ramadan’s worship alive
Darul Uloom · Waqas Muhi
“We will be able to replicate some, at least some of that effect that we experience in Ramadan when shaitan is locked up.”
In one sentence
Believers can preserve some of Ramadan’s spiritual protection by staying connected to the Muslim community and maintaining consistent worship, Qur'an recitation, dhikr, dua, and obedience to Allah.
The khutbah in 6 steps
- Organizations learn from past successes and failures, and Muslims should similarly review their Ramadan habits.
- Because Shaytan returns after Ramadan, believers should reduce his influence through community connection.
- Staying with the jama'ah means avoiding hatred and division while maintaining congregational prayer.
- Regular Qur'an recitation, especially Surah al-Baqarah, helps protect the household.
- Morning and evening adhkar, dua, salah, Qur'an, and sadaqah sustain spiritual discipline after Ramadan.
- The khutbah closes with a recap, supplication, and congregational prayer recitations.

Quotes
In the khateeb's words
“Differences of opinion and those differences will always be there. But the main thing is those differences should not lead towards hatred and division within the community.”
“Ramadan is a training workshop for us, and we have done all these things.”
“Daily basis, some Qur'an, five minutes, ten minutes, half a page, one page, whatever it is.”
“Inshallah, if we do this, then we will be able to replicate some, at least some of that effect that we experience in Ramadan when shaitan is locked up.”
Talk about it at home
For the dinner table
The khutbah teaches that Ramadan is a training workshop, not a spiritual finish line. After Ramadan, Shaytan continues trying to distract us, so we should stay close to the Muslim community and avoid hatred and division. Small, steady habits such as daily prayer, Qur'an, dhikr, dua, and sadaqah can help us keep Ramadan’s benefits. Even a few minutes of Qur'an each day can be a meaningful start.
- Which Ramadan habit would you like our family to continue together?
- What helps you feel connected to the Muslim community?
- What is one small daily act of worship you could make easier this week?
