For the dinner table

Ramadan is approaching, and the khutbah presents it as a special chance to seek Allah’s forgiveness and build taqwa. The Quran asks us not only to recite it, but also to believe it, understand it, act on it, and share its guidance responsibly. Fasting should involve more than avoiding food and drink; our eyes, ears, tongues, hands, and hearts should also avoid what displeases Allah. We can prepare by making a realistic schedule for Quran, service, remembrance, and dua. The goal is to let Ramadan change how we live throughout the year.
