For the dinner table

Ramadan may be over, but Allah is still our Lord, still near, and still ready to forgive us. The khateeb encouraged us to keep praying on time, returning to the masjid, reading Qur’an, giving charity, and making dua throughout the year. When we make mistakes, we should not despair; we should ask Allah’s forgiveness and turn back to Him. On Eid, we should enjoy family time while practicing patience and forgiving one another quickly. We can also review the habits Ramadan gave us and begin planning how to carry them into the next Ramadan.

  1. Which Ramadan habit would you like our family to continue this week?
  2. How can we show patience and forgiveness when Eid celebrations become stressful?
  3. What is one good habit we can start planning for before the next Ramadan?
