Understanding QURAN the book of ALLAH
Allah tells us in surah hood verse number 1 alif-lam-ra (ayat) meaning :
This is a book whose verses are perfected and then presented in detail from the wise and acquainted yes in this Ramadan we'll be talking about Quran this is a blessed month in which you see you feel the difference especially if you're living in Muslim communities and Muslim world all around the world what do you see is everyone is sort of changing their lifestyle their spectrum holding on to Quran and trying to understand Quran .
Quran this is the word of Allah subhana Allah which has been sent down for the guidance of the mankind it is not an ordinary book but this is a book in which you have to have this feeling that Allah subhana Allah is having a communication with you you are in conversation with your Lord and if we go back to the times of the Companions of the Prophet who were the first recipients of this message we find out that those people when they heard it for the first time it was like a living reality for them their hearts and their minds they were seized their eyes would flow with tears and they would find all the verses very relevant to their concerns and their issues also their experiences so much so that all those companions they felt that their lives were transformed we have many stories of the Companions of the Prophet like Umar (RA) and who was rushing to attack the prophet salAllahu alaihe salam and on wave and he found out that he own sister has converted to this religion he went back to her and asked her about this column about this verse about these verses and when he heard these verses he completely transformed he went to the Prophet and accepted Islam.
so all these stories are there to tell us that these were the people who became the world leaders Allah subhana Allah tells us in surah Rahman verse number one al Rahman alumel Quran the most merciful and when he talks about his mercy immediately he says alumel Quran he taught us Quran this is his immense mercy for us that he has everything as creation but he placed Quran his divine message as his speech so today we see same Quran millions of copies in our circulation day and night ceaselessly it is being recited but yet we find people they are not moved by it we see lives which are not changed by it so very crucial question that comes to our mind is can Quran be living and relevant in these times and this is exactly what we are going to talk about for the rest of Ramadan every day when we come to you so we need to receive experience and understand Quran as the first recipe instead we have to feel it how do you feel it if you go back in the times we see this is one very well-guarded divine message that was brought down to the prophet salAllahu lavallee wassalam Allah subhanaw taala passed it on to Jibril and Jibril.
The angel he passed that message on to the prophet salAllahu alaihe salam but it was not in the form of a scripture as such it was revealed to him on his heart so this is something that you feel with your heart the connection of Quran is not at the level of just intellectual self but you feel your feelings have to be affected by it so firstly what we need to do is we have to realize Quran is the word of Allah subhanaw taala and this need to bring reverence love and long to be connected to it secondly we have to read it as we have been asked to read and thirdly we also have to look around at the cultural barriers that we have when it comes to the recitation of Quran the comprehension of Quran and also the application of Quran and very amazingly you will find out that once you are connected to Quran it overpowers your fears and anxiety.
Quran is also known as noor because it helps you find success Quran is also called shifa because it is healing for all the negative emotions that are around us Quran is also known as Vicker that is a constant reminder for us and this is the only way in which we feel connected to our lord Allah subhanaw taala because he's unseen we can't see him so the first introduction that we get about him is through Quran that is why in surah nisa worst number 174 Allah subhana Allah tells us Johannes you know one of the beauty of Quran is it doesn't just address the Muslims it addresses the mankind because we are all his creation and Allah subhana Allah says o mankind are the joakim Borja nomura become indeed there has come to you a conclusive proof from your Lord Vonzell 'no alaikum nora mabini and we have sent down to you a clear light meaning this Quran is very clear this is a very comprehensive message this is a message that when you read it when you ponder over it you find out solutions to all your problems that is why in a Hadees we find out the prophet salAllahu laval ever salam talked about it he said i'm leaving behind with you two things if you hold on to them firmly you are not going to get astray one is a large book and second is my Sunnah so these things are both interrelated and that is what we have to be focusing on obviously the whole year the whole life but specially in this month of Ramadhan Imam Ghazali he talks about a man and he says a person said I read the Koran but did not find sweetness in it then I read it as if hearing from the prophet salAllahu Lavallee wa sallam while he was reciting it to his companions like you have to use your imagination that way then I moved to a step further I read the Quran as if I was hearing from the jibraíeel alaysalam the angel while he delivered it to the prophet sallAllahu alaihi wa sallam then God brought me into the fourth stage I began to read it as if I was hearing it from the speaker that is like you develop a strong bonding with Allah subhanaw taala yourself so there is there are a lot of guidelines in this whole story or the narration by this person what you need to do is first and foremost develop your connection with Quran start reading it even if you don't enjoy it then you gradually uplift or upgrade yourself at a higher level so everything in this Quran is meant for us and what we need to do is connect to Quran by responding to it taking it as a living reality and asking Allah subhana Allah for help in surah al-anbiya verse number 10 Allah subhana Allah explains this to us laqad an Zellner alaikum kita bánffy he's a guru come we have indeed sent down to you a book in which is your mention you are mentioned in this book a fanatical hoon will you not then use your aachen will you not even think about it imagine you know there is a book or there is an article and these days we are living in the times of social media your name is mentioned somewhere how do you feel you check that option couple of times you feel so good so honored and you want to introduce it to so many people you want to tell them look my name came up in this program in this book in this article and something that I worked on so we take it to our accomplishment so Allah subhana Allah says if you will open Quran and you'll start reading it and start trying to understand this is all about you this is about your life you wouldn't have to go around looking for solutions anywhere else we find out in a Hadees that the messenger of Allah salAllahu alaihe salam once came out in the gathering of his companions and he said rejoice do you not witness that there is no god but Allah and I'm The Messenger of Allah they all said yes the prophet salAllahu alaihe salam said verily this Quran is a means one end is in the hand of Allah and the other end is in your hand hold fast to it for you will never be led astray or wound ever again think of the situation someone is going up high up on the Himalayas or on the k2 or any glacier or any mountain and what they do is they are all well connected the people who are going there all when connected with the rope and the one one of them is about to slip out for some reason what do they do they cut off the rope they let him die but to save the rest of the people who are there similarly you can come across any situation in which you're badly stuck people would come around to help you but if they feel that they are also going to end up in that suffering they just back off but Allah subhana Allah tells us through this Hadees that no he will never back off on us he will always be there he will guide us he will this Quran will bring will be a source of joy for us this will help us maintain steady relationship obviously the right relationship and through thick and thin we will be he will be there for us so basically Quran is for the living hearts dead hearts people who are insensitive to it who take it just like any other book who just have filled there is no connection between them .
And Quran they will not find any wisdom in it then we also come across people who do have a live heart who are sensitive to their needs who are sensitive towards their religion who want to understand religion but somehow they are confused they are not paying enough attention to this message again they are not going to benefit from it but if you have a receptive heart you're focused on the implementation plan that has been passed on to you from Quran that's when you will see that this is going to benefit you .
Experts say that they tell us that all words are very well placed so in different verses when we'll be going over different chapters and different ayahs we will be looking at the beauty of why a certain verses a word is placed in that place similarly all ayahs all sentences that are there in Quran they are well connected because sometimes there is a person who is trying to read Quran and you will find jumps we'll be talking about this one story and suddenly something else comes up we are talking about a very serious matter and Allah subhana Allah has placed an example over there what's the connection inshAllah in this journey through Ramadan everyday we'll be talking about all these connections and we'll try to feel those connections and in the same way you will find assessment or you will find this nourishment for spiritual nourishment as well as your intellectual nourishment so what I expect you to do is when you will be watching this program have your own copy of Quran in your hand have a highlighter with you and a write down or look at the significant points and yes dig them more deeply I try to understand them try to apply them in your life so to understand Quran we have certain prerequisites let's talk about them you have to read Quran with an open mind if you are judgmental if you have your own views notions doctrines then you won't be able to enjoy Quran so put aside everything and just feel that connection and yes we have to make lot of doors for ourselves all please help us understand Quran as you revealed it to the prophet salAllahu lavallee with Salam as he explained it to his companion Sahaba and as they practiced it why because this is our salvation for this life and in the hereafter second deed read it with the purpose none other than to receive the guidance and the pleasure of Allah subhanaw taala this is not just for the intellectual pursuit yes you will be enjoying the intellectual angle or dimensions in many places but take it for your guidance keep asking yourself why I am reading it why should I read it and yes no doubts about the verses if you're not able to understand something if I'm not able to explain something to you that doesn't mean there is imperfection in the kalam of Allah subhanaw taala in the words of Allah subhana Allah this is something we have to understand and we have to keep coming back to it to see the wisdom behind all the verses and yes we also need to have this readiness to follow these verses that is the beauty of Quran that is what Allah subhana Allah tells us repeatedly that it brings us out of all the issues that are there in our life two words towards the light towards the right understanding about Quran would we find out another beautiful verse in surah younus where Allah subhana Allah tells us again johannes o mankind khadija at kymaro is a tamara become there has come to you and see her morrow is an struction from your Lord and Welsh afar lmf is sudou and it is healing for your hearts well hold on where I'm at a little mo meaning and it is guidance and mercy for the believers this is one of my favorite verses johannes Allah subhana Allah is addressing all the mankind and telling them this is a very beautiful message for all of you mo is a is not a big lecture that is delivered to you in which you are like you are in a light where you have been told you're a criminal and stuff for Allah you are not doing this and you're going to burn in Hellfire no Maru is a is when you are explained in such a manner that you safeguard yourself from everything that is going to lead you towards the wrong path not only in this dunya but also in accra Maru is ax is something when you feel badly or compassionately for someone you don't want to see someone being hurt or taking wrong decisions in this life and also yes for the Hereafter so this is Marisa Mira become and what she found lame office to do this is healing for your heart what kind of lifestyle you have are you a negative person are you a pessimistic person are you someone who is jealous of someone you are stingy in nature you are not able to develop good relationship you have anxiety you have depression you talk about all the ailments the mental illnesses that are on rise in these times Allah subhana Allah says come back to this Kalam come back to the words of Allah subhana Tana so yes in this Ramadan what you can do is talk around tell your friends this is an amazing program that PTV world is bringing for you and what you can do is connect through this program to toot Allah subhanaw taala and understand not all its meaning but also have this healing then wha who don't want a little more meaning and if you are a believer if you are not just the mankind if you are the believer if you believe in oneness of Allah subhanaw taala if you believe in spending your life the way he wants you to then this is guidance and this is mercy from Allah subhana Allah then the next verse says in surah younis verse number 58 will be fodhla lava be Rama say in the bounty of Allah and his mercy for basillica failure freh who in that let them rejoice who a high room in my age my own it is better than what they accumulate so this is a Fuzzle from Allah subhana Allah that is again but we have to understand what is Fuzzle when we say bounty Fuzzle this is like a bonus that you're getting like when you go to the market the mall and you say it says buy one get three buy one get to or you offer you you called some food place and they say we have a special deal for you today and you're so excited and thrilled about getting the benefit out like that so Allah subhanaw taala says this is a puzzle this is a bounty like that this is a bonus that we are all getting that Allah subhanaw taala created us and faced us on this earth but he didn't let us be wandering around on our own taking decisions on our own he gave us a platform to start from understand the basic value system and then built on that and that is why he wants us to do what for bisily Cavalia for aho rejoice on that when you hear about Quran they should be smile on your face when you're talking about Quran you should be super excited about it when you're trying to apply it in your life you should feel like you have accomplished something who are high room in my judgment why because this is this is better than anything all your dream projects the dream career option the the dream house that you want to live in the the dream kind of family that you are opting for so any dream I want this I want this in life it is better than everything that you have because we find out so many people who have a very luxurious lifestyle who are able to afford anything in everything even they are not happy even they are not enjoying their lives even there are sometimes thinking of just ending their life suicide rate is so much high in all those areas where people seem to be apparently well settled they have all the basic necessities even the psychologists of today would tell you that if you have fulfilled the needs and the wants and nothing is left for that person and that's when you lose that focus you lose why am I here so Allah subhana Allah is guiding us in all these areas and telling us that we need to think of Quran having our connection with the word of Allah subhana Allah beyond everything it should be like our top priority and yes having said bad it doesn't mean that you have to give up your career you have to give up your passions you have to give up on your family or whatever you are striving for no it just helps you streamline everything so that is what we have to understand and this is the month where we feel that special connection with Quran and what is that special connection inshAllah I'm going to talking about it but after this short break [Music] [Music] welcome back we were talking about Quran the beauty of Quran we are talking about this amazing program that we are bringing to you from PTV world by the name understanding Quran the word of Allah and we have just talked about how important it is to feel that connection how important it is that we see the word of Allah as a living reality and have the ownership of it in our life so what's the connection of Quran with Ramadan why there is so much hype about it you would find Quran especially being the focus everywhere in this month Allah subhana Allah tells us in verse number 183 of surah al-baqarah chapter number 2 Yahya Lezyne amanu o believers who teba alaikum o sayyaa mukham akuti ba ll Aegina Mincha bleekham la allakum tactic hoon for believers fasting has been prescribed for you as it was prescribed for the people for you so that you attain taqwa that you have this piety it's like this recharging that you have for yourself it's like a refresher course that you do for yourself but Gua let us try to just talk about it and see what does it mean look why if you look at the literal meaning it means to stop yourself to abstains yourself to safeguard yourself like when you're doing something you have to make a conscious effort to safeguard yourself it could be lying it could be backbiting it could be your anger you are so mad at someone but you tell yourself I have to stop I have to control myself I have to cool down I shouldn't be saying one thing or the other to this person so whenever you have to stop yourself from anything you have to make a conscious effort you're going on the road and you tell yourself I have to maintain my right speed the speed limit is mentioned over here so you make a conscious effort to slow down when you're inside is telling you there is no traffic policeman around the corner so you can speed up nobody would be able to see you so the kawar is you stop yourself you make a conscious effort why would you make a conscious effort you will only make a conscious effort if you have a firm conviction about something for example if there is something hot being placed in front of you you are going to make a conscious effort because you believe that this is hot tea and if it spills over me I can get burnt that's when you're going to make that conscious effort for example why you make conscious effort to maintain your speed limit while driving and be careful about all the rules and regulations on the road because you firmly believe that if I cross that limit if I don't buckle up myself and if I land in some sort of an accident it could be a problematic thing for me so with when you want to stop yourself you make a conscious effort and with this conscious effort comes your conviction you believe I should be not backbiting you believe that I see this anger is a problem for me it's not a problem because of other people you believe even if somebody is doing something which they feel is right but it's not good for myself my life I need to stop myself and once you start believing it and you start becoming cautious you know you become you have a clarity in your decision-making when you're sitting with people you know what you're going to do you know what you're not going to do you are not sucked in by the peer pressure and that ultimately gives you a lot of self regulation self discipline nobody even if nobody is around you keep watching yourself let me give you another beautiful connection especially when we talk about Ramadan your fasting and it's hot and you had a very difficult day you took a nap you came back from your work or your studies and you got up and nobody was around you opened the refrigerator to check what's in there and you find a chilled jug of lemonade what would you do nobody's around would you just take a sip of it just one sip or just one glass nobody would know you can just keep pretending I'm still fasting no you wouldn't do that I have asked this question to so many people and every time even their kids students older age group they all say no we will never drink water and when I ask them why not they say because we are fasting for Allah subhana Allah and we are fasting for our Creator so Allah is watching us and since we're doing it for him we won't take even a single sip no matter how thirsty we are we control our desires so this is an exercise that we do in the month of Ramadan where we control our desires in such a manner that we remember Allah is watching us but we have to apply this principle in everything in our life if I'm controlling my anger that also for Allah if I'm taking care of people around me that also for Allah if I'm maintaining a certain cleanliness standard in my life that is also for Allah so whatever you do in your life you're doing it for Allah that is the qua that you are so Allah conscious you remember that if I'm doing something good even if the whole world doesn't acknowledge me he will acknowledge me in shala same similarly you remember if I did something wrong with someone even if nobody notices it I'm such a smart mouth person I can get away with anything very smartly but it will be documented in front of Allah subhana Allah he is going to hold me accountable for that so we have to safeguard our self that is something important that we have to see how do we do that how do we set the standard that's when the connection of Ramadan comes with Quran in surah al-baqarah verse number 8 185 Allah subhana Tala elaborates on that shahru ramadana alladhi unzila fihi he'll Quran the month of Ramadan is that in which the Quran was revealed who de líneas this is guidance for the mankind or by unity minal Hudur and clear proofs of the guidance well for con and it gives us a criterion so in de McGann what do we do is it's like a crash course in which we set aside eating too much eating too much food too much worldly Affairs cut out some of your activities and yes develop your connection with Quran because once you develop your connection with Quran you will not only understand or see the beauty of Quran you will develop that connection with Allah so on someone who can't see you can just feel from your heart you would understand what he expects from you what kind of a lifestyle he wants to spend you to spend you would also understand how I can put barriers and stops in different places he'll give you solutions he will have warned you about different things he will give you glad tidings about many things that you have accomplished so this is a guidance that we need to be connecting to and in this month of Ramazan when you're fasting what you're actually doing is working on your taqwa your Allah consciousness when you're doing parallel that are re the extended prayers at night what you are actually doing is standing in front of a line actually feeling his presence what you're doing is when you're opening Quran in every day doing recitation of Quran you are helping your heart to melt down to develop that bonding to feel that beauty of Quran and width aqua what happens is you get guidance you get allows help we find out verses which tell us if you have taqwa if you become Allah conscious Allah enhances your provisions your risk Allah makes easy all the worldly matters similarly we find out you acquired knowledge you don't have to run around for even small things in your religion to go around and check with people and yes you stay away from many sins and that is why again in Quran we find out that Allah subhana Allah tells us that it is not as difficult as you have perceived it if we develop this connection with Quran what happens is that we we feel that strong bonding how insu el kamar verse number 40 Allah subhana Allah tells us well after the eternal karana Lisak and we have certainly made Quran easy for remembrance for hell my mother care so is there anyone who will remember it so la da da says it's very easy it is amazing you will see and you will feel it in Ramadan and inshAllah when we will cover one chapter every day you will be mesmerised you will see that beauty there could be all the family members sitting over there they could be young people they would be older people very educated not very educated Muslims non-muslims whoever sits with this notion to let me understand this message they'll find it very easy they'll find they will feel that connectivity with it because Allah subhana Allah is addressing all the mankind in it so Quran has been made easy to do its hips that is learned by heart and yes this Ramadan you can make an effort on that you can have certain targets of learning some sorezore some verses or some ayahs similarly the recitation of Quran Allah subhana Allah has made our soundbox our whole system how we speak in such a manner that we can recite Quran very beautifully all of us we can do that and yes understanding it is easy like even if you are doing the running translation if you don't understand the Arabic you're doing the running translation of the Quran you will be able to make out Allah Allah definitely wants us to pray regularly wants us not to lie not to cheat people not to back bite control our anger be optimistic in life be nice to people forgive people these are some key messages that everyone tells us around and that is the beauty of Quran that even Allah subhana Tala very clearly explained these things to us then we come on to the next level where we try to apply these principles in our life that is sometimes challenging especially when we are living in environments when people are doing something different and we want to practice our religion and yes Allah subhana Allah has made this Quran very easy to be conveyed to people if you if you understand this message of Quran you will be able to also able to convey it to a lot of people around you and this is like what you have to again bring in your life like as a responsibility on yourself when you're sitting in different places and people are doing something which is not appropriate we need to pass on this message to them you know Hadees the prophet sallallaahu Valley Salim said the best of you are those who learn the Quran and then teach it so this should be like on our priority and other beautiful Hadees that I find in which rasool Allah salla salam said verily Allah has his own people among mankind so the people asked o messenger of Allah salAllahu salim who are they we are also inclusive to find out who are they because this is like such a such a profound feeling to be among those people so the prophet salAllahu Lavallee sallam said they are the people of the Quran Allah own people and those who are closest to him so this Ramazan inshAllah we'll be making this effort to develop a strong connection and bonding with Quran to be among those people of Quran to understand this is the best deal that you can make and yes this will help you enhance your love for Allah subhana Allah and also for the prophet salAllahu alaihe salam you will feel an increased level of iman and when you develop your connection with Quran and yes you will have a very cautious lifestyle we all need to be cautious many times our parents our ad our elders our mentors they're always guiding us towards such things but with Quran you get this extra power recharging extra strength and extra help from Allah subhana Allah to practice all those traits Quran also makes us very wise in our decision-making and also what to do when to do how to do and what should be the level of it so our communication skills our skills to be proactive to be more visionary they also get enhanced once we understand the principles which are given in Quran and at the beauty of Quran is that it helps us improve our relationships and most of the families when you look around the big concern in this world is about dysfunctional families people are living in the times when the parents and the kids they are apparently in a family but they are totally disconnected they don't feel that that that communication among them and also not the empathy and the compassion that should be there similarly with all the needy people in the society like the orphans like the widows like the people who are suffering because of lot of these scenarios around in society so we need to develop the this compassion and empathy for all the people in the community and yes improve our relationships even if we are in our working environments so that we develop respect for each other
And Quran helps us safeguard ourselves from many sins many sins all the time we are bombarded by our desires and these weaknesses inside us and from the Islamic principle we have Shaitaan we have this devil and this Devils whispers which are always there to tempt us and all sorts of ailments there is a cure for it so in a Hadees the prophet salAllahu alaihe salam said there is no Envy except for two cases a man whom Allah has given this book so he stands to recite it during the day and night and a man whom Allah has given the wealth and he spends it during the day and night so when we look at these people sometimes when we see like these graduations and somebody has posted a picture on the social media and we are sort of talking to some of our family members oh I wish I could be there or some of my kids or my husband or my wife could be performing that way in all those situations we need to admire the people who are well connected to Quran and who are also applying Quran in their life and we need to envy those people and we need to look up at examples even in these times if so-and-so can apply Quran in their life and still be happy and content that means it is applicable for all times this is the kind of confidence we need to have about Quran and then another beautiful narration in the month of Ramazan ensure love and you'll be reciting Quran and at the same time you will be making an effort to even memorize part of Quran remember this hadith in which the saying of the Prophet in which the prophet sallAllahu Valley Salam said it will be said to the person of Quran read and ascend and recite as you use to recite in the world for your level is at the last verse which you read so the more you recite the more you learn Quran and you'll be reading and you'll be ascending to the highest level of Jannah of the paradise this beauty is something that we should all be striving for because many of us would what we do is we'll look up at all those people who are Quran students who are studying Quran but we feel that maybe i'm not one of them so each one of us can make this effort and yes this pledge with our own cells how we are going to take Quran so basically if I give you a nutshell of what we have talked about today Quran for a Muslim is a lifeline it's like your oxygen it's something that you cannot survive without it is something that you need to be very very cautious about it is something that you need to invest in your time your energies and your productivity because the more you connect to Quran the more you feel the beauty of Quran that's when you will feel you will be energized you will be enriched you will be able to have a focus you will be able to have a purpose in life you will be able to understand why I am supposed to do a certain thing and why I'm not supposed to do something many times I have this parents who come to me and especially they are in a fix about their youngsters their kids and kind of activities they have indulged in it could be addiction it could be a relationship it's not working out it could be their career they're badly stuck in it it could be depression it could be a mental illness it could be it could be an activity which is of a criminal nature and they are totally at loss and they talked to me and they asked me where did we go wrong and I always ask them one question is your son or daughter connected to Quran everyday and usually the answer I get is no yes when they were young we we had them go through Quran once and after that after they are mean after the celebration that they have covered their Quran once they went back to their worldly studies so that's the key point that we have to remember in our lives because we remember that there is a hadith the gist of which is that they could be people in the month of Ramazan who will be fasting and who will be praying but it will be like just staying hungry and thirsty the whole day and also like just standing up and doing some exercise and they will get nothing out of it why because they are not investing in the message that Ramadan brings in the message that the Ramazan and the connection of Quran brings so we could be like a fertile soil where we enhance our capabilities and our productivity in the month of Ramadan or we could be like those people like an infertile land nothing affects us or even a fertile land or a slippery land which doesn't give out the productivity it should so many times people also ask me this question we see so many Quran recitals and enviable environment in the month of ramazan but how come people are still messed up people don't change some people don't even change in the month of ramazan and then there are people who sort of switch characters immediately after Ramadan they they look apparently making an effort in the month of Ramadan but they go back to their regular lifestyle immediately after Ramadan a student asked his teacher if the Shaitan the devil is locked up during Ramadan why do people still do bad things this is a kind of a similar question that comes in the mind of many people and the teacher responded what happens when you stir a cup of coffee for a long time after you take the spoon out the coffee continues to stir on its own right the Shaitaan is that stirrer and we are his coffee so our bad habits continue to stir even when he's away so the important thing is what we do is we focus or we take Ramadan as this special course a refresh course to develop strong bonding with Quran but once Ramadan is over we don't put it aside till the next Ramadan what we do is whatever we have talked about we have felt we have understood we start its application at a high level throughout the year and that is what needs to be transforming our personalities like if you were a very impatient person you need to develop sabr you need to develop that patience inside you if you feel there was a lot of ingratitude in your life you you were getting bitter feeling about many events in your life and after understanding Quran you realized where your thought process was wrong what you do is you develop gratitude so before Ramadan you have negative traits you work on them and you come back to the positive traits in your life and that is the recharging that you get from Ramadan which will inshaAllah help you into a transform person you will be happy inside out and you will be able to pass on that positivity to all the people around you not only to the Ummah but also to the world around so be with us each Ramadan each day where we will be understanding one chapter and going over the key
Allah tells us in surah hood verse number 1 alif-lam-ra (ayat) meaning :
This is a book whose verses are perfected and then presented in detail from the wise and acquainted yes in this Ramadan we'll be talking about Quran this is a blessed month in which you see you feel the difference especially if you're living in Muslim communities and Muslim world all around the world what do you see is everyone is sort of changing their lifestyle their spectrum holding on to Quran and trying to understand Quran .
Quran this is the word of Allah subhana Allah which has been sent down for the guidance of the mankind it is not an ordinary book but this is a book in which you have to have this feeling that Allah subhana Allah is having a communication with you you are in conversation with your Lord and if we go back to the times of the Companions of the Prophet who were the first recipients of this message we find out that those people when they heard it for the first time it was like a living reality for them their hearts and their minds they were seized their eyes would flow with tears and they would find all the verses very relevant to their concerns and their issues also their experiences so much so that all those companions they felt that their lives were transformed we have many stories of the Companions of the Prophet like Umar (RA) and who was rushing to attack the prophet salAllahu alaihe salam and on wave and he found out that he own sister has converted to this religion he went back to her and asked her about this column about this verse about these verses and when he heard these verses he completely transformed he went to the Prophet and accepted Islam.
so all these stories are there to tell us that these were the people who became the world leaders Allah subhana Allah tells us in surah Rahman verse number one al Rahman alumel Quran the most merciful and when he talks about his mercy immediately he says alumel Quran he taught us Quran this is his immense mercy for us that he has everything as creation but he placed Quran his divine message as his speech so today we see same Quran millions of copies in our circulation day and night ceaselessly it is being recited but yet we find people they are not moved by it we see lives which are not changed by it so very crucial question that comes to our mind is can Quran be living and relevant in these times and this is exactly what we are going to talk about for the rest of Ramadan every day when we come to you so we need to receive experience and understand Quran as the first recipe instead we have to feel it how do you feel it if you go back in the times we see this is one very well-guarded divine message that was brought down to the prophet salAllahu lavallee wassalam Allah subhanaw taala passed it on to Jibril and Jibril.
The angel he passed that message on to the prophet salAllahu alaihe salam but it was not in the form of a scripture as such it was revealed to him on his heart so this is something that you feel with your heart the connection of Quran is not at the level of just intellectual self but you feel your feelings have to be affected by it so firstly what we need to do is we have to realize Quran is the word of Allah subhanaw taala and this need to bring reverence love and long to be connected to it secondly we have to read it as we have been asked to read and thirdly we also have to look around at the cultural barriers that we have when it comes to the recitation of Quran the comprehension of Quran and also the application of Quran and very amazingly you will find out that once you are connected to Quran it overpowers your fears and anxiety.
Quran is also known as noor because it helps you find success Quran is also called shifa because it is healing for all the negative emotions that are around us Quran is also known as Vicker that is a constant reminder for us and this is the only way in which we feel connected to our lord Allah subhanaw taala because he's unseen we can't see him so the first introduction that we get about him is through Quran that is why in surah nisa worst number 174 Allah subhana Allah tells us Johannes you know one of the beauty of Quran is it doesn't just address the Muslims it addresses the mankind because we are all his creation and Allah subhana Allah says o mankind are the joakim Borja nomura become indeed there has come to you a conclusive proof from your Lord Vonzell 'no alaikum nora mabini and we have sent down to you a clear light meaning this Quran is very clear this is a very comprehensive message this is a message that when you read it when you ponder over it you find out solutions to all your problems that is why in a Hadees we find out the prophet salAllahu laval ever salam talked about it he said i'm leaving behind with you two things if you hold on to them firmly you are not going to get astray one is a large book and second is my Sunnah so these things are both interrelated and that is what we have to be focusing on obviously the whole year the whole life but specially in this month of Ramadhan Imam Ghazali he talks about a man and he says a person said I read the Koran but did not find sweetness in it then I read it as if hearing from the prophet salAllahu Lavallee wa sallam while he was reciting it to his companions like you have to use your imagination that way then I moved to a step further I read the Quran as if I was hearing from the jibraíeel alaysalam the angel while he delivered it to the prophet sallAllahu alaihi wa sallam then God brought me into the fourth stage I began to read it as if I was hearing it from the speaker that is like you develop a strong bonding with Allah subhanaw taala yourself so there is there are a lot of guidelines in this whole story or the narration by this person what you need to do is first and foremost develop your connection with Quran start reading it even if you don't enjoy it then you gradually uplift or upgrade yourself at a higher level so everything in this Quran is meant for us and what we need to do is connect to Quran by responding to it taking it as a living reality and asking Allah subhana Allah for help in surah al-anbiya verse number 10 Allah subhana Allah explains this to us laqad an Zellner alaikum kita bánffy he's a guru come we have indeed sent down to you a book in which is your mention you are mentioned in this book a fanatical hoon will you not then use your aachen will you not even think about it imagine you know there is a book or there is an article and these days we are living in the times of social media your name is mentioned somewhere how do you feel you check that option couple of times you feel so good so honored and you want to introduce it to so many people you want to tell them look my name came up in this program in this book in this article and something that I worked on so we take it to our accomplishment so Allah subhana Allah says if you will open Quran and you'll start reading it and start trying to understand this is all about you this is about your life you wouldn't have to go around looking for solutions anywhere else we find out in a Hadees that the messenger of Allah salAllahu alaihe salam once came out in the gathering of his companions and he said rejoice do you not witness that there is no god but Allah and I'm The Messenger of Allah they all said yes the prophet salAllahu alaihe salam said verily this Quran is a means one end is in the hand of Allah and the other end is in your hand hold fast to it for you will never be led astray or wound ever again think of the situation someone is going up high up on the Himalayas or on the k2 or any glacier or any mountain and what they do is they are all well connected the people who are going there all when connected with the rope and the one one of them is about to slip out for some reason what do they do they cut off the rope they let him die but to save the rest of the people who are there similarly you can come across any situation in which you're badly stuck people would come around to help you but if they feel that they are also going to end up in that suffering they just back off but Allah subhana Allah tells us through this Hadees that no he will never back off on us he will always be there he will guide us he will this Quran will bring will be a source of joy for us this will help us maintain steady relationship obviously the right relationship and through thick and thin we will be he will be there for us so basically Quran is for the living hearts dead hearts people who are insensitive to it who take it just like any other book who just have filled there is no connection between them .
And Quran they will not find any wisdom in it then we also come across people who do have a live heart who are sensitive to their needs who are sensitive towards their religion who want to understand religion but somehow they are confused they are not paying enough attention to this message again they are not going to benefit from it but if you have a receptive heart you're focused on the implementation plan that has been passed on to you from Quran that's when you will see that this is going to benefit you .
Experts say that they tell us that all words are very well placed so in different verses when we'll be going over different chapters and different ayahs we will be looking at the beauty of why a certain verses a word is placed in that place similarly all ayahs all sentences that are there in Quran they are well connected because sometimes there is a person who is trying to read Quran and you will find jumps we'll be talking about this one story and suddenly something else comes up we are talking about a very serious matter and Allah subhana Allah has placed an example over there what's the connection inshAllah in this journey through Ramadan everyday we'll be talking about all these connections and we'll try to feel those connections and in the same way you will find assessment or you will find this nourishment for spiritual nourishment as well as your intellectual nourishment so what I expect you to do is when you will be watching this program have your own copy of Quran in your hand have a highlighter with you and a write down or look at the significant points and yes dig them more deeply I try to understand them try to apply them in your life so to understand Quran we have certain prerequisites let's talk about them you have to read Quran with an open mind if you are judgmental if you have your own views notions doctrines then you won't be able to enjoy Quran so put aside everything and just feel that connection and yes we have to make lot of doors for ourselves all please help us understand Quran as you revealed it to the prophet salAllahu lavallee with Salam as he explained it to his companion Sahaba and as they practiced it why because this is our salvation for this life and in the hereafter second deed read it with the purpose none other than to receive the guidance and the pleasure of Allah subhanaw taala this is not just for the intellectual pursuit yes you will be enjoying the intellectual angle or dimensions in many places but take it for your guidance keep asking yourself why I am reading it why should I read it and yes no doubts about the verses if you're not able to understand something if I'm not able to explain something to you that doesn't mean there is imperfection in the kalam of Allah subhanaw taala in the words of Allah subhana Allah this is something we have to understand and we have to keep coming back to it to see the wisdom behind all the verses and yes we also need to have this readiness to follow these verses that is the beauty of Quran that is what Allah subhana Allah tells us repeatedly that it brings us out of all the issues that are there in our life two words towards the light towards the right understanding about Quran would we find out another beautiful verse in surah younus where Allah subhana Allah tells us again johannes o mankind khadija at kymaro is a tamara become there has come to you and see her morrow is an struction from your Lord and Welsh afar lmf is sudou and it is healing for your hearts well hold on where I'm at a little mo meaning and it is guidance and mercy for the believers this is one of my favorite verses johannes Allah subhana Allah is addressing all the mankind and telling them this is a very beautiful message for all of you mo is a is not a big lecture that is delivered to you in which you are like you are in a light where you have been told you're a criminal and stuff for Allah you are not doing this and you're going to burn in Hellfire no Maru is a is when you are explained in such a manner that you safeguard yourself from everything that is going to lead you towards the wrong path not only in this dunya but also in accra Maru is ax is something when you feel badly or compassionately for someone you don't want to see someone being hurt or taking wrong decisions in this life and also yes for the Hereafter so this is Marisa Mira become and what she found lame office to do this is healing for your heart what kind of lifestyle you have are you a negative person are you a pessimistic person are you someone who is jealous of someone you are stingy in nature you are not able to develop good relationship you have anxiety you have depression you talk about all the ailments the mental illnesses that are on rise in these times Allah subhana Allah says come back to this Kalam come back to the words of Allah subhana Tana so yes in this Ramadan what you can do is talk around tell your friends this is an amazing program that PTV world is bringing for you and what you can do is connect through this program to toot Allah subhanaw taala and understand not all its meaning but also have this healing then wha who don't want a little more meaning and if you are a believer if you are not just the mankind if you are the believer if you believe in oneness of Allah subhanaw taala if you believe in spending your life the way he wants you to then this is guidance and this is mercy from Allah subhana Allah then the next verse says in surah younis verse number 58 will be fodhla lava be Rama say in the bounty of Allah and his mercy for basillica failure freh who in that let them rejoice who a high room in my age my own it is better than what they accumulate so this is a Fuzzle from Allah subhana Allah that is again but we have to understand what is Fuzzle when we say bounty Fuzzle this is like a bonus that you're getting like when you go to the market the mall and you say it says buy one get three buy one get to or you offer you you called some food place and they say we have a special deal for you today and you're so excited and thrilled about getting the benefit out like that so Allah subhanaw taala says this is a puzzle this is a bounty like that this is a bonus that we are all getting that Allah subhanaw taala created us and faced us on this earth but he didn't let us be wandering around on our own taking decisions on our own he gave us a platform to start from understand the basic value system and then built on that and that is why he wants us to do what for bisily Cavalia for aho rejoice on that when you hear about Quran they should be smile on your face when you're talking about Quran you should be super excited about it when you're trying to apply it in your life you should feel like you have accomplished something who are high room in my judgment why because this is this is better than anything all your dream projects the dream career option the the dream house that you want to live in the the dream kind of family that you are opting for so any dream I want this I want this in life it is better than everything that you have because we find out so many people who have a very luxurious lifestyle who are able to afford anything in everything even they are not happy even they are not enjoying their lives even there are sometimes thinking of just ending their life suicide rate is so much high in all those areas where people seem to be apparently well settled they have all the basic necessities even the psychologists of today would tell you that if you have fulfilled the needs and the wants and nothing is left for that person and that's when you lose that focus you lose why am I here so Allah subhana Allah is guiding us in all these areas and telling us that we need to think of Quran having our connection with the word of Allah subhana Allah beyond everything it should be like our top priority and yes having said bad it doesn't mean that you have to give up your career you have to give up your passions you have to give up on your family or whatever you are striving for no it just helps you streamline everything so that is what we have to understand and this is the month where we feel that special connection with Quran and what is that special connection inshAllah I'm going to talking about it but after this short break [Music] [Music] welcome back we were talking about Quran the beauty of Quran we are talking about this amazing program that we are bringing to you from PTV world by the name understanding Quran the word of Allah and we have just talked about how important it is to feel that connection how important it is that we see the word of Allah as a living reality and have the ownership of it in our life so what's the connection of Quran with Ramadan why there is so much hype about it you would find Quran especially being the focus everywhere in this month Allah subhana Allah tells us in verse number 183 of surah al-baqarah chapter number 2 Yahya Lezyne amanu o believers who teba alaikum o sayyaa mukham akuti ba ll Aegina Mincha bleekham la allakum tactic hoon for believers fasting has been prescribed for you as it was prescribed for the people for you so that you attain taqwa that you have this piety it's like this recharging that you have for yourself it's like a refresher course that you do for yourself but Gua let us try to just talk about it and see what does it mean look why if you look at the literal meaning it means to stop yourself to abstains yourself to safeguard yourself like when you're doing something you have to make a conscious effort to safeguard yourself it could be lying it could be backbiting it could be your anger you are so mad at someone but you tell yourself I have to stop I have to control myself I have to cool down I shouldn't be saying one thing or the other to this person so whenever you have to stop yourself from anything you have to make a conscious effort you're going on the road and you tell yourself I have to maintain my right speed the speed limit is mentioned over here so you make a conscious effort to slow down when you're inside is telling you there is no traffic policeman around the corner so you can speed up nobody would be able to see you so the kawar is you stop yourself you make a conscious effort why would you make a conscious effort you will only make a conscious effort if you have a firm conviction about something for example if there is something hot being placed in front of you you are going to make a conscious effort because you believe that this is hot tea and if it spills over me I can get burnt that's when you're going to make that conscious effort for example why you make conscious effort to maintain your speed limit while driving and be careful about all the rules and regulations on the road because you firmly believe that if I cross that limit if I don't buckle up myself and if I land in some sort of an accident it could be a problematic thing for me so with when you want to stop yourself you make a conscious effort and with this conscious effort comes your conviction you believe I should be not backbiting you believe that I see this anger is a problem for me it's not a problem because of other people you believe even if somebody is doing something which they feel is right but it's not good for myself my life I need to stop myself and once you start believing it and you start becoming cautious you know you become you have a clarity in your decision-making when you're sitting with people you know what you're going to do you know what you're not going to do you are not sucked in by the peer pressure and that ultimately gives you a lot of self regulation self discipline nobody even if nobody is around you keep watching yourself let me give you another beautiful connection especially when we talk about Ramadan your fasting and it's hot and you had a very difficult day you took a nap you came back from your work or your studies and you got up and nobody was around you opened the refrigerator to check what's in there and you find a chilled jug of lemonade what would you do nobody's around would you just take a sip of it just one sip or just one glass nobody would know you can just keep pretending I'm still fasting no you wouldn't do that I have asked this question to so many people and every time even their kids students older age group they all say no we will never drink water and when I ask them why not they say because we are fasting for Allah subhana Allah and we are fasting for our Creator so Allah is watching us and since we're doing it for him we won't take even a single sip no matter how thirsty we are we control our desires so this is an exercise that we do in the month of Ramadan where we control our desires in such a manner that we remember Allah is watching us but we have to apply this principle in everything in our life if I'm controlling my anger that also for Allah if I'm taking care of people around me that also for Allah if I'm maintaining a certain cleanliness standard in my life that is also for Allah so whatever you do in your life you're doing it for Allah that is the qua that you are so Allah conscious you remember that if I'm doing something good even if the whole world doesn't acknowledge me he will acknowledge me in shala same similarly you remember if I did something wrong with someone even if nobody notices it I'm such a smart mouth person I can get away with anything very smartly but it will be documented in front of Allah subhana Allah he is going to hold me accountable for that so we have to safeguard our self that is something important that we have to see how do we do that how do we set the standard that's when the connection of Ramadan comes with Quran in surah al-baqarah verse number 8 185 Allah subhana Tala elaborates on that shahru ramadana alladhi unzila fihi he'll Quran the month of Ramadan is that in which the Quran was revealed who de líneas this is guidance for the mankind or by unity minal Hudur and clear proofs of the guidance well for con and it gives us a criterion so in de McGann what do we do is it's like a crash course in which we set aside eating too much eating too much food too much worldly Affairs cut out some of your activities and yes develop your connection with Quran because once you develop your connection with Quran you will not only understand or see the beauty of Quran you will develop that connection with Allah so on someone who can't see you can just feel from your heart you would understand what he expects from you what kind of a lifestyle he wants to spend you to spend you would also understand how I can put barriers and stops in different places he'll give you solutions he will have warned you about different things he will give you glad tidings about many things that you have accomplished so this is a guidance that we need to be connecting to and in this month of Ramazan when you're fasting what you're actually doing is working on your taqwa your Allah consciousness when you're doing parallel that are re the extended prayers at night what you are actually doing is standing in front of a line actually feeling his presence what you're doing is when you're opening Quran in every day doing recitation of Quran you are helping your heart to melt down to develop that bonding to feel that beauty of Quran and width aqua what happens is you get guidance you get allows help we find out verses which tell us if you have taqwa if you become Allah conscious Allah enhances your provisions your risk Allah makes easy all the worldly matters similarly we find out you acquired knowledge you don't have to run around for even small things in your religion to go around and check with people and yes you stay away from many sins and that is why again in Quran we find out that Allah subhana Allah tells us that it is not as difficult as you have perceived it if we develop this connection with Quran what happens is that we we feel that strong bonding how insu el kamar verse number 40 Allah subhana Allah tells us well after the eternal karana Lisak and we have certainly made Quran easy for remembrance for hell my mother care so is there anyone who will remember it so la da da says it's very easy it is amazing you will see and you will feel it in Ramadan and inshAllah when we will cover one chapter every day you will be mesmerised you will see that beauty there could be all the family members sitting over there they could be young people they would be older people very educated not very educated Muslims non-muslims whoever sits with this notion to let me understand this message they'll find it very easy they'll find they will feel that connectivity with it because Allah subhana Allah is addressing all the mankind in it so Quran has been made easy to do its hips that is learned by heart and yes this Ramadan you can make an effort on that you can have certain targets of learning some sorezore some verses or some ayahs similarly the recitation of Quran Allah subhana Allah has made our soundbox our whole system how we speak in such a manner that we can recite Quran very beautifully all of us we can do that and yes understanding it is easy like even if you are doing the running translation if you don't understand the Arabic you're doing the running translation of the Quran you will be able to make out Allah Allah definitely wants us to pray regularly wants us not to lie not to cheat people not to back bite control our anger be optimistic in life be nice to people forgive people these are some key messages that everyone tells us around and that is the beauty of Quran that even Allah subhana Tala very clearly explained these things to us then we come on to the next level where we try to apply these principles in our life that is sometimes challenging especially when we are living in environments when people are doing something different and we want to practice our religion and yes Allah subhana Allah has made this Quran very easy to be conveyed to people if you if you understand this message of Quran you will be able to also able to convey it to a lot of people around you and this is like what you have to again bring in your life like as a responsibility on yourself when you're sitting in different places and people are doing something which is not appropriate we need to pass on this message to them you know Hadees the prophet sallallaahu Valley Salim said the best of you are those who learn the Quran and then teach it so this should be like on our priority and other beautiful Hadees that I find in which rasool Allah salla salam said verily Allah has his own people among mankind so the people asked o messenger of Allah salAllahu salim who are they we are also inclusive to find out who are they because this is like such a such a profound feeling to be among those people so the prophet salAllahu Lavallee sallam said they are the people of the Quran Allah own people and those who are closest to him so this Ramazan inshAllah we'll be making this effort to develop a strong connection and bonding with Quran to be among those people of Quran to understand this is the best deal that you can make and yes this will help you enhance your love for Allah subhana Allah and also for the prophet salAllahu alaihe salam you will feel an increased level of iman and when you develop your connection with Quran and yes you will have a very cautious lifestyle we all need to be cautious many times our parents our ad our elders our mentors they're always guiding us towards such things but with Quran you get this extra power recharging extra strength and extra help from Allah subhana Allah to practice all those traits Quran also makes us very wise in our decision-making and also what to do when to do how to do and what should be the level of it so our communication skills our skills to be proactive to be more visionary they also get enhanced once we understand the principles which are given in Quran and at the beauty of Quran is that it helps us improve our relationships and most of the families when you look around the big concern in this world is about dysfunctional families people are living in the times when the parents and the kids they are apparently in a family but they are totally disconnected they don't feel that that that communication among them and also not the empathy and the compassion that should be there similarly with all the needy people in the society like the orphans like the widows like the people who are suffering because of lot of these scenarios around in society so we need to develop the this compassion and empathy for all the people in the community and yes improve our relationships even if we are in our working environments so that we develop respect for each other
And Quran helps us safeguard ourselves from many sins many sins all the time we are bombarded by our desires and these weaknesses inside us and from the Islamic principle we have Shaitaan we have this devil and this Devils whispers which are always there to tempt us and all sorts of ailments there is a cure for it so in a Hadees the prophet salAllahu alaihe salam said there is no Envy except for two cases a man whom Allah has given this book so he stands to recite it during the day and night and a man whom Allah has given the wealth and he spends it during the day and night so when we look at these people sometimes when we see like these graduations and somebody has posted a picture on the social media and we are sort of talking to some of our family members oh I wish I could be there or some of my kids or my husband or my wife could be performing that way in all those situations we need to admire the people who are well connected to Quran and who are also applying Quran in their life and we need to envy those people and we need to look up at examples even in these times if so-and-so can apply Quran in their life and still be happy and content that means it is applicable for all times this is the kind of confidence we need to have about Quran and then another beautiful narration in the month of Ramazan ensure love and you'll be reciting Quran and at the same time you will be making an effort to even memorize part of Quran remember this hadith in which the saying of the Prophet in which the prophet sallAllahu Valley Salam said it will be said to the person of Quran read and ascend and recite as you use to recite in the world for your level is at the last verse which you read so the more you recite the more you learn Quran and you'll be reading and you'll be ascending to the highest level of Jannah of the paradise this beauty is something that we should all be striving for because many of us would what we do is we'll look up at all those people who are Quran students who are studying Quran but we feel that maybe i'm not one of them so each one of us can make this effort and yes this pledge with our own cells how we are going to take Quran so basically if I give you a nutshell of what we have talked about today Quran for a Muslim is a lifeline it's like your oxygen it's something that you cannot survive without it is something that you need to be very very cautious about it is something that you need to invest in your time your energies and your productivity because the more you connect to Quran the more you feel the beauty of Quran that's when you will feel you will be energized you will be enriched you will be able to have a focus you will be able to have a purpose in life you will be able to understand why I am supposed to do a certain thing and why I'm not supposed to do something many times I have this parents who come to me and especially they are in a fix about their youngsters their kids and kind of activities they have indulged in it could be addiction it could be a relationship it's not working out it could be their career they're badly stuck in it it could be depression it could be a mental illness it could be it could be an activity which is of a criminal nature and they are totally at loss and they talked to me and they asked me where did we go wrong and I always ask them one question is your son or daughter connected to Quran everyday and usually the answer I get is no yes when they were young we we had them go through Quran once and after that after they are mean after the celebration that they have covered their Quran once they went back to their worldly studies so that's the key point that we have to remember in our lives because we remember that there is a hadith the gist of which is that they could be people in the month of Ramazan who will be fasting and who will be praying but it will be like just staying hungry and thirsty the whole day and also like just standing up and doing some exercise and they will get nothing out of it why because they are not investing in the message that Ramadan brings in the message that the Ramazan and the connection of Quran brings so we could be like a fertile soil where we enhance our capabilities and our productivity in the month of Ramadan or we could be like those people like an infertile land nothing affects us or even a fertile land or a slippery land which doesn't give out the productivity it should so many times people also ask me this question we see so many Quran recitals and enviable environment in the month of ramazan but how come people are still messed up people don't change some people don't even change in the month of ramazan and then there are people who sort of switch characters immediately after Ramadan they they look apparently making an effort in the month of Ramadan but they go back to their regular lifestyle immediately after Ramadan a student asked his teacher if the Shaitan the devil is locked up during Ramadan why do people still do bad things this is a kind of a similar question that comes in the mind of many people and the teacher responded what happens when you stir a cup of coffee for a long time after you take the spoon out the coffee continues to stir on its own right the Shaitaan is that stirrer and we are his coffee so our bad habits continue to stir even when he's away so the important thing is what we do is we focus or we take Ramadan as this special course a refresh course to develop strong bonding with Quran but once Ramadan is over we don't put it aside till the next Ramadan what we do is whatever we have talked about we have felt we have understood we start its application at a high level throughout the year and that is what needs to be transforming our personalities like if you were a very impatient person you need to develop sabr you need to develop that patience inside you if you feel there was a lot of ingratitude in your life you you were getting bitter feeling about many events in your life and after understanding Quran you realized where your thought process was wrong what you do is you develop gratitude so before Ramadan you have negative traits you work on them and you come back to the positive traits in your life and that is the recharging that you get from Ramadan which will inshaAllah help you into a transform person you will be happy inside out and you will be able to pass on that positivity to all the people around you not only to the Ummah but also to the world around so be with us each Ramadan each day where we will be understanding one chapter and going over the key
