Worship should continue after Ramadan

In one sentence

Worship should continue after Ramadan through make-up fasts, six voluntary Shawwal fasts, prayer, Quran, and other consistent good deeds.

The khutbah in 6 steps

  1. Worship continues beyond Ramadan until death.
  2. The six fasts of Shawwal complete Ramadan’s reward.
  3. Missed Ramadan fasts should preferably be made up before the six Shawwal fasts.
  4. The six Shawwal fasts are voluntary, flexible, and should be encouraged rather than forced.
  5. Continuing good deeds demonstrates gratitude and may indicate Ramadan was accepted.
  6. The khutbah closes by urging regular worship and continued fasting following the Prophet’s example.

For the dinner table

The khateeb reminded us that worship does not end when Ramadan ends. He advised people with missed Ramadan fasts to make them up first when possible, followed by six voluntary fasts in Shawwal. Continuing prayer, Quran, mosque attendance, and other good deeds shows gratitude and may be a sign that Ramadan was accepted. Families should encourage one another kindly, without forcing anyone.
