Clearance Sale



You may delay, but time will not
.
Praise be to Allah Who has created Time and has made certain times like months or days and nights more valuable than the others; that is when the rewards of every good deed are offered a manifold, as mercy & favor towards His slaves.

Now, imagine yourself taking a brisk stroll through the mall and catch the holiday clearance sale. Crazy prices of your favourite stuff on shelves! You know for sure that it happens once in a blue moon. You also know that it lasts only for an hour when there is so many stuff you're craving to buy. What would you do then? Chances are, you won't ignore that sale, will you? You absolutely won't wait till tomorrow. You won't delay it even just for a second.

Ramadan is much more treasured than that. There are too many virtues of this month that you would eagerly strive to gain, knowing the infinite blessings that Allah would offer to people who commit good deeds in Ramadan. You want to grasp them all but Ramadan ends soon in less than 30 days, so you definitely won't delay any good deed left undone.

The Prophet said: “Whoever draws near to Allah during it (Ramadan) with a single characteristic from the characteristics of (voluntary) goodness, he is like whoever performs an obligatory act in other times. And whoever performs an obligatory act during it, he is like whoever performed seventy obligatory acts in other times . ” [Sahih Ibn Khuzaimah]

An-Nawawi wrote in his book, al-Majmu' Sharḥ al-Muhadhdhab , 6/424: "Our scholars said that being generous & performing favors are highly recommended during Ramadan , specifically during the last ten nights. By doing so, we emulate the example of the Messenger of Allah as well as our predecessors. This month is honored & good deeds performed in this month are more blessed than they are at any other time."
.
Ibn 'Abbas reported: "The Messenger of Allah was the most generous of men, & he was the most generous during the month of Ramadan when Jibril visited him every night and recited the Qur'an to him. During this period, the generosity of Messenger of Allah waxed faster than the rain bearing wind." [Bukhari & Muslim]

Abu Hurairah said:⁣⁣⁣
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Whoever spends Laylat al-Qadr in prayer out of faith and in the hope of reward, will be forgiven his previous sins.” [al-Bukhari and Muslim]⁣⁣⁣
