introduction
Bismillah, As Salaamu Aalaykum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuhu,
Alhamdulillah. Indeed, all praise is due to Allah. We praise Him and seek His help and
forgiveness. We seek refuge with Allah from our souls’ evils and our wrongdoing. He whom
Allah guides, no one can misguide; and he whom He misguides, no one can guide. I bear
witness that there is no god except Allah alone without any partners. And I bear witness
that Muhammad (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) is His servant and messenger.
I want to thank you for your support. I want to ask you to make du’a for my father in law
Muhammad Fakhrul Islam (rahimahullah) who passed away on the 23 of Jumada al akhirah
1439. It’s been rough. Please keep my mother in law and his loved ones in your du’as. May
Allah put sakeenah in our hearts and reunite us all in Jannatul firdous without reckoning.
Ameen.
To gain the most from this planner it’s best if you print and complete the exercises. If you
need additional help I’ve set up a facebook group for Halalify planner users to post and ask
questions. I can’t promise to be personally available for every post but will chime in when
needed. Insha’Allah. Due to limited resources and time this a mixed gender group so please
post with that in mind. fb.com/groups/Halalify
May this planner be a source of barakah and sadaqah jariya for you, your family, progeny and
community. May it help you exceed your expectations and make this your best Ramadan
yet! AMEEN.
This Ramadan will be different than any other before because this time you’ll be an
active participant, insha’Allah.

Fiqh of ramadan
Abu Hurairah, (radiyAllahu ‘anhu) reported that The Prophet, (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam)
said, “When the month of Ramadan starts, the gates of the heaven are opened and the
gates of Hell are closed and the devils are chained.”
Why, then, do we still have bad thoughts? It is a common question. Scholars say that
these thoughts originate from our own souls battered by satanic whisperings and
devices implanted in us. Another blessing of Ramadan now becomes apparent. It is
a time to see what has happened to our soul, what condition it is in, and take notice
of our shortcomings: jealousy, envy, overzealous competition, love of gossip, and the
rest. During Ramadan, these traits become clear, and a clear enemy is easier to defeat
than a slinking one. [Sh. Hamza Yusuf]
The Islamic month begins with one of two events:
Sighting of the new moon. Completion of 30 days.
Ibn ‘Umar, (radiyAllahu ‘anhu) said, Abu Hurairah, (radiyAllahu ‘anhu) reported
“The people were looking for the new that the Messenger of Allah (salAllahu ‘alayhi
moon and when I reported to the wa sallam) instructed: “Fast after you have
Messenger of Allah, (salAllahu ‘alayhi seen it [the new crescent] and end the fast [at
wa sallam) that I had seen it, he fasted the end of the month] when you see it. If it
and ordered the people to fast.” [Abu is hidden from you, then wait until the thirty
Dawud] days of Sha’ban have passed.” [Bukhari & Muslim]
Du’a upon sighting the crescent moon:
Allah is the greatest. O Allah, bring us the new moon with security
and Faith, with peace and in Islam, and in harmony with what our
Lord loves and what pleases Him. Our Lord and your Lord is Allah.
[Tirmithi, Ad-Darimi]
Who are the ulema in your community? Who is exempt from fasting? Why?
Ask them when Ramadan fasting begins for
your community.
What are the conditions of intention for

Who is required to fast? Why? fardh (obligatory) fasting?
Du’a for breaking the fast:
‫اللَّ ُه َّم ل ََك ُص ْم ُت َو ب َِك ا َم ْن ُت َو َع ىَل ِر ْز ِق َك اَفْطَ ْر ُت‬

Allahumma laka sumtu wa bika aamantu wa ‘ala rizqika aftartu
O Allah! I have fasted for You. In You do I believe, and with Your
provision (food) do I break my fast. [Tabarani]

Zakat ul-fitr
Prophet Muhammad (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) has said, “Whoever paid it (Zakat ul-Fitr)
before Salat ul-Eid, it is acceptable zakat before Allah. Whoever paid it after Salat ul-Eid, it
is just a charity.” The companions of the Prophet (radiyAllahu ‘anhum) used to pay it a few
days earlier. [Al-Bukhari]
It is reported from Ibn ‘Umar, (radiyAllahu ‘anhu) that he said: “The Messenger of Allah,
(salAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) enjoined the payment of one sa’ of date or one sa’ of barley as
Zakat ul-Fitr on every Muslim, young and old, male and female, free and slave.”[Bukhari &
Muslim]

taraweeh
The consensus of the sahaba and the salaf after them has been 20 raka’at prayed after
Salatul Isha in the month of Ramadan. If your local masjid prays 8 raka’at but you believe
the 20 is the stronger opinion then pray the 8 in congregation and complete the rest at
home. No fighting necessary.
Keep in mind:
Narrated Abu Hurairah (radiyAllahu ‘anhu): The Prophet (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said:
“Whoever establishes prayers during the nights of Ramadan faithfully out of sincere faith
and hoping to attain Allah’s rewards (not for showing off), all his past sins will be forgiven.”
-Bukhari
The Messenger of Allah (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: “Whoever stands with the imam
until he finishes (the prayer), the reward of Qiyam al-Layl will be recorded for him.” -At-
Tirmidhi
tips
Fasting during the summer heat can be challenging here are some tips.
1. Avoid onions, garlic, spicy or highly scented foods and drinks. Indulge in all those
delicacies AFTER taraweeh.
It is related that ‘Abdu’l-’Aziz said, “Anas was asked, ‘What did you hear the Prophet,
may Allah bless him and grant him peace, say about garlic?’ He answered, ‘Whoever
eats it should not come near our mosque.’” [Bukhari]
2. Eat light! Overeating causes drowsiness, laziness, shortness of breath and discomfort
during long prayers.
O Children of Adam! Take your adornment (by wearing your clean clothes), while
praying and going round (the Tawaf of ) the Ka’bah, and eat and drink but waste
not by extravagance, certainly He (Allah) likes not Al-Musrifun (those who waste by
extravagance). [Surah Al-‘A’raf 7:31]
3. Rinse your mouth, floss and perform miswak to cleanse any residual food odor.
It is related that Suwayd ibn an-Nu’man said, “We set out for Khaybar with the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace. When we were at
as-Sahba’ (and Yahya says that is a day’s journey from Khaybar), the Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, asked for food. Only sawiq* was
brought. We chewed and ate it. Then he called for water and rinsed his mouth out
and we did so as well, and then he led us in Maghrib without repeating wudu’.”
Sufyan said, “I heard it from him, beginning to end.” *sawiq: a mush made of wheat
or barley. [Bukhari]
4. If body odor is a problem take a quick shower to freshen up.
Indeed, Allah loves those who are constantly repentant and loves those who purify
themselves. [Surah Al-Baqarah 2:222]
5. Wear clean and modest clothing that keeps you cool. Clothes that trap heat will
hinder your concentration (khushoo) and mood during the summer heat when both
temperatures and tempers rise. Plan ahead and make the most of your prayers.
6. After iftar, head to the masjid, and if you have guests, bring them along!
7. If thirst is an issue, bring a sealable water bottle with you: 2/3 ice and 1/3 water. It’ll help
keep you hydrated during the long prayers. You could also infuse your water with slices
of cucumbers or other fruits (get those vitamins in!). Too much water, however, will
send you to the bathroom, so choose wisely.
8. Put your phone on silent to avoid disrupting others’ prayers.
9. THE SHOES! During Ramadan the shoe rack is a complete mess. Help the community
by putting your shoes away neatly which improves the experience for everyone. You
could also bring a reusable bag to store your shoes in. Because if there’s no room on
the racks, you can keep your bagged shoes safely inside a handbag, bookbag or in your
prayer spot.

children in the masjid
Be patient. Be patient. Be patient. Consider the following from Shaykh Abdul Nasir
Jangda:
Alhamdulillah since the age of about 5 my father used to take me to
Taraweeh every night in Ramadan, even on school nights. Around the time
I was 8 I remember being amazed by the imam’s recitation of the Qur’an
from memory in Taraweeh. I even told my father that I want to be able to do
what he does. So bi’idhnillah when the opportunity presented itself to go and
memorize the Qur’an, I jumped at it and insisted that I be allowed to go. Keep
in mind that this involved traveling overseas at the age of 10. Alhamdulillah,
since then one thing Allah has granted me the ability to do consistently is
lead Taraweeh every Ramadan. This was the beginning of my journey down
the road of seeking knowledge and serving the Deen.
-Abdul Nasir Jangda Founder & Director of Qalam Institute
2. Make du’a for the parents and the children; after all, we are one Ummah and our goal
is to enter Jannah. Plus, an angel say “AMEEN, and to you too.”
3. Know that everything that happens is a trial. Will you fail or pass? Increase in tolerance
or demand the future Mumineen-in-training be removed?
1. Make du’a.
parents
2. No matter the child’s age there will be some who will be offended to see shoes being
worn in the prayer area. Place your child’s footwear inside a bag and into your handbag
or diaper bag. Not only will this help keep the peace (at least on the topic of shoes) but
it’ll make it easier and faster for you to find the tiny shoes later.
3. Position yourself and your child at the end of a row to avoid gaps and disruption during
prayer. If possible, pray in the back rows.
4. Bring dry snacks, crayons, coloring pages, small toys, pacifier or a blanket just in case
you need them. Avoid anything that goes “blinkie! blinkie! blinkie!” If it needs a battery
it needs to stay home. Make more du’a.
ORGANIZING Events
Another posibility could be for non fasting adults to set up events for children in the masjid.
If you’re interested in organizing events for children and young adults and in doing so help
families attend Taraweeh services I’ve set up 2 groups for sharing information. I’m only
one person but together we can support each other nourish our communities and our
future Mumineen-in-training. Insha’Allah. The earlier we engage them and make them feel

welcome the stronger their bond to iman and Islam will be and you can be a part of that,
insha’Allah.
Ref: 100
fb.com/groups/ThisRamadanKIDS fb.com/groups/ThisRamadanTEENS/
May Allah guide us all to do events that will please Him, unite the Ummah, spark love in
the hearts of the believers for His deen and be sources of barakat and sadaqah jariya for
everyone. Ameen.
What kind of events would bring your community together?

Goal Setting Like
A Champ!
A dream is a wish your hear t makes,
but a goal is a dream with a deadline.
Getting clarity on what goal to pursue can be difficult. One sugestion is to write down 3-5
of the most negative things in your life dealing with Ramadan. Then write what you’d like
to achieve if success was guaranteed. Take a look at both lists, is there any overlap? If one of
your goals directly addresses one of the negative points, then the likelihood of you following
through is higher.
Once you’ve chosen a goal, talk to others who’ve achieved something similar and ask them
for advice and tips. They’ll be able to point out the steps you need to take but if you’re still
having a hard time then just work backwards. What needs to happen in order to get to the
next step? Keep the end in mind and make du’a for success.
A good plan has a clear cause and effect in attainable stages. A good plan is:
SMART- Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, Time-bound
goal setting
s specific
m measureable
a attainable
r relevant
t time bound
Specific: Focus on ONE thing until you are clear on the What, Why & How;
Measurable: Uses milestones and benchmarks, aka “deliverables.”
Attainable: Consists of progressive tasks and steps you can do to accomplish them;
Relevant: Leverages your learning style, morals and character. What works for others
may not work for you.
Time Bound: Demands a deadline and not an open-ended time frame. You must
complete the goal before you can build upon it with a new goal. Ramadan
has a built in deadline of 29-30 days.
This Ramadan will be different than any other before because this time you’ll be an active
rather than a passive participant, insha’Allah.
Here are some reflection questions to get you started
1. What are 3-5 things you hated most about your previous Ramadans?

©2018
Ref: 100
2. What would you do if you couldn’t fail this Ramadan?
3. If Allah, Subhanahu wa ta’ala, was to give you ANYTHING you ever wanted, what would
you ask for? (Add them to your Master Du’a List) Keep in mind the following, “And your
Rabb says, “Call upon me; I will respond to you.” [Surah Al-Ghafir 40:60]

What do you want to
achieve this Ramadan?
Dream List
1. Set a timer for 5 minutes and write down what your ideal Ramadan would look like.
What would that feel like? Don’t censor yourself in any way just write everything down.
Keep in mind the following,
This is Jannah that you have been This Punishment is because of that which
made to inherit because of the your hands put forth (in the first life).

life). [Az-Zukhruf 43:72] [Al ‘Imran 3:182, Al-Anfal 8:51, and Al-Hajj 22:10]

2. Set the timer for another 5 minutes and jot down what you want to achieve in the
corresponding time slots.

3. Go back to each of the four sections and circle ONE item that you feel would have
the most positive impact on your dunya and akhira. Just ONE. Insha’Allah. For “this
Ramadan” section choose ONE attainable goal that you can do in 29-30 days. It should
take you outside your comfort zone but not overextend your abilities.
4. Write the ONE goal you selected for each of the 4 sections below. Underneath mention
WHY it’s important and HOW it’ll impact you and those you care about. If you can’t
answer this question cross out the goal and choose another. If you don’t care about it
and its not important and it won’t get done.

5. Take the ONE goal for “This Ramadan,” and write it in the bubble below. This is the
goal you will be focusing on for the rest of the month. Set your timer once again for 5
minutes and begin to write down all the steps you must take in order to complete this
task. Connect each step with a line to the bubble.

rama an!

6. Look at each task you delineated in step 5 and create a timetable by writing the
number 1 next to the step you must take first, a number 2 on the task that must be
completed next. Continue to do so until all the steps have a number.
7. Now add due dates in Ramadan next to each step to make them time-bound. Add
them to the corresponding dates in your monthly calendar as well as in your “To Do”
section on the daily pages. The more you blend your daily activities with your goals, the
higher chances of you completing it.
8. To help you visualize your progression insert the steps that fall under the 1st ten days in
the pyramid below. Now do the next 10 days and the final 10 days. The beauty of a Goal
Pyramid is that your completed goal now becomes the bottom run for the next goal
pyramid. This way you’re building on your sucesses insha’Allah!
bonus: Find an accountability partner to help you stay on track!

The Messenger of Allah (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) addressed
his companions on the last day of Sha‘ban, saying,
“Oh people! A great month has come over you; a blessed

month; a month in which is a night better than a thousand
months; month in which Allah has made it compulsory upon
you to fast by day, and voluntary to pray by night. Whoever
draws nearer (to Allah) by performing any of the (optional)
good deeds in (this month) shall receive the same reward
as performing an obligatory deed at any other time, and
whoever discharges an obligatory deed in (this month) shall
receive the reward of performing seventy obligations at any
other time. It is the month of patience, and the reward of
patience is Heaven. It is the month of charity, and a month
in which a believer’s sustenance is increased. Whoever gives
food to a fasting person to break his fast, shall have his sins
forgiven, and he will be saved from the Fire of Hell, and he
shall have the same reward as the fasting person, without his
reward being diminished at all.”

Salman visited Abu’d-Darda’ and saw Umm ad-Darda’ (radiyAllahu ‘anha) poorly dressed
and said to her, ‘What’s the matter with you?’ She said, ‘Your brother Abu’d-Darda’ has no
need of this world.’ Abu’d-Darda’ came and made some food for him. Salman said, ‘Eat.’
He said, ‘I am fasting.’ Salman said, ‘I will not eat unless you eat.’” He said, “He ate. In the
night, Abu’d-Darda’ went to stand in prayer and Salman said to him, ‘Sleep!’ and he slept.
Then he got up again and Salman said, ‘Sleep!’ At the end of the night, Salman said, ‘Now
get up and we will pray.’ Salman said to him, ‘Your Lord has rights over you and your
self has rights over you, so give those with rights their due.’ Abu’d-Darda’ came to
the Prophet (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) and mentioned this to him and the Prophet said,
‘Salman spoke the truth.’” [Bukhari]

Salman visited Abu’d-Darda’ and saw Umm ad-Darda’ (radiyAllahu ‘anha) poorly dressed
and said to her, ‘What’s the matter with you?’ She said, ‘Your brother Abu’d-Darda’ has no
need of this world.’ Abu’d-Darda’ came and made some food for him. Salman said, ‘Eat.’
He said, ‘I am fasting.’ Salman said, ‘I will not eat unless you eat.’” He said, “He ate. In the
night, Abu’d-Darda’ went to stand in prayer and Salman said to him, ‘Sleep!’ and he slept.
Then he got up again and Salman said, ‘Sleep!’ At the end of the night, Salman said, ‘Now
get up and we will pray.’ Salman said to him, ‘Your Lord has rights over you and your
self has rights over you, so give those with rights their due.’ Abu’d-Darda’ came to

It is related that Zayd ibn Thabit (radiyAllahu ‘anhu) said, “We used to have suhoor with
the Prophet (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam). Then he stood up for the prayer.” Anas said, “I
said, ‘How long was there between the adhan and suhoor?’ He said, ‘Enough to recite fifty
ayats.’” [Bukhari]
Will you live to see another Ramadan and reap its rewards?
Ibn ‘Umar (radiyAllahu ‘anhu) reported that the Prophet (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said:
“The best among the believers are those with the best manners. And the most prudent
among them are those who remember death most often and prepare for it the hardest.
Indeed, those are the prudent ones: they attain honor in this life and excellence in the
hereafter. [at- Tabarani, Ibn Majah and others.]
There are many negatives in our Ummah these days, but
there are even more positives and you’re one of them!
You’re using this planner to draw closer to Allah, insha’Allah, and that’s
admirable. You also happen to be in great company! There are 1.6
billion Muslims today, and there are billions yet to come insha’Allah,
and the billions before, all united by “La ilaha illa-Allah.” Alhamdulillah!
As you break your fast, remember the Ummah in your du’a and as you
supplicate for us an angel is saying, “Ameen, and to you, too.” You’re
also receiving the du’a made by millions of Muslims who, over the
centuries, have wished for your well-being, having never even met
you!
By simply saying “La ilaha illa-Allah,” you connect your heart

to the Ummah’s and that is pretty awesome!
Abdullah bin Busr (radiyAllahu ‘anhu) narrated that the Prophet

(salAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: “On the day of Resurrection, my
nation will be radiant from prostrating and shining from Wudu.” [at-
Tirmidhi]
how have you prepared?

There are seven acts whose rewards continue to be recorded for a person while he is in his
grave after his death: teaching (beneficial) knowledge, running a stream of water, digging
a well, planting palm trees, building a masjid, leaving a copy of the Qur’an as inheritance,
or leaving behind him a (righteous) child who seeks forgiveness for him after his death.

Narrated Abu Salama (radiyAllahu ‘anhu): Once I went to Abu- Sa’id Al-Khudri and asked
him, “Won’t you come with us to the date-palm trees to have a talk?” So Abu Said went
out and I asked him, “Tell me what you heard from the Prophet (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa
sallam) about the Night of Qadr.” Abu Sa’id replied, “Once Allah’s Apostle performed I’tikaf
(seclusion) on the first ten days of the month of Ramadan and we did the same with him.
Gabriel came to him and said, ‘The night you are looking for is ahead of you.’ So the Prophet
performed the I’tikaf in the middle (second) ten days of the month of Ramadan and we too
performed I’tikaf with him. Gabriel came to him and said, ‘The night which you are looking
for is ahead of you.’ In the morning of the 20th of Ramadan the Prophet delivered a sermon
saying, ‘Whoever has performed I’tikaf with me should continue it. I have been shown the
Night of “Qadr”, but have forgotten its date, but it is in the odd nights of the last ten nights.
I saw in my dream that I was prostrating in mud and water.’ In those days the roof of the
mosque was made of branches of date-palm trees. At that time the sky was clear and no
cloud was visible, but suddenly a cloud came and it rained. The Prophet led us in the prayer
and I saw the traces of mud on the forehead and on the nose of Allah’s Apostle. So it was the
confirmation of that dream.” [Bukhari]

LAST 10 NIGHTS!
What can you do to gather as many rewards in the last 10 nights as possible?
remember zakat ul-fitr has to be paid before the eid prayer.

laylatul qadr
1.
battle plan
Start preparations at Fajr. After Fajr salat, ensure you recite the morning adhkar
(remembrance), especially: ‘La ilaha illallah, wahdahu la sharika lah, lah ul mulku wa-
lah ul-hamd, yuhyi wa-yumit, wa-huwa ‘ala kulli shay’in qadir’
There is no God but Allah; He is alone without any partners. To Him belongs the
dominion, He deserves all praise. He gives life and death, and He is capable of
everything.
‘Abdullah bin ‘Amir and Abu Hurairah (radiyAllahu ‘anhuma) reported that
the Prophet (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) promised for a person who says this
extollment one hundred times in the morning: This will count for him as freeing
ten slaves; and one hundred good deeds will be recorded for him, one hundred
sins will be removed from his record, and this will provide for him a shelter from
shaytan until the evening; and no one will come (on Judgment Day) with a better
deed except for a man who exceeded him (in saying it). [Abu Hurairah’s report was
recorded by Bukhari & Muslim. Ibn ‘Amir’s report was recorded by an-Nasai, Ahmad & others]
2. Treat a fasting person to iftar, either by inviting him to your house, or by buying the
food for him and sending it to him.
The Prophet (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: “Whoever feeds the person who
is breaking his fast, he will have his reward (for his fasting) without decreasing
anything from the reward of the fasting person.” [Tirmidhi & Ibn Maajah]
3. When the day breaks, make as much du’a as possible that Allah helps you and makes
it easy for you to worship Him during the night.
4. Throughout the daytime, perform the obligatory duties such as praying on time, adding
sunnah and optional prayers. Repeat the phrases of the adhan after the muadhin and
make the necessary supplications.
5. Constantly make the chosen du’a for this night: “O Allah you are the Most Forgiving,
and You love to forgive, so forgive me’’
6. If you can, have a bath and perform wudu like the Prophet.
7. Wear your cleanest and best clothes for this night.
Ibn ‘Abbaas (radiyAllahu ‘anhuma) reports from the Messenger of Allah (salAllahu
‘alayhi wa sallam) that he said, “Wear your white garments for they are among the
best of your clothes.” [Abu Dawud]
8. Add du’as and get your Master Du’a List ready.
9. Set alarms.
For you guys who like math, let’s do some calculations for some motivation.
If Laylatul-Qadr is worth more than 1000 months [see Qur’an 97:3], and the
night lasts about 8 hours (may be more or less depending on your locality),
then 1000 months divided by 8 hours means you get 125 months per hour,
which means you get more than 10 years per hour, which means for every 6
minutes of worship, you get more than 1 years worth! Subhan’Allah, how’s that
for a math lesson!

Master Du’a List
step 1: Go somewhere really beautiful, where no one can disturb you
step 2: Imagine Allah says to you, “Ask whatever you wish and I shall grant it to you.” Think
of everything good you would ask for from this life and the next.
step 3: After thinking of everything you can, sit down and write it out.
step 4: Pick 5 things, your favorites, and consistently ask Allah for these 5 every night in the
last ten. Your du’a will be guaranteed to have landed on Laylatul-Qadr! How cool is that?

Even the du’a of Iblis was accepted. Even the du’a of Iblis was accepted. Why? Because
Allah (subhanahu wa ta’ala) is the Lord of all the creation and Iblis is of the creation. NEVER
lose hope in your du’as. [Taken from How Do You Speak To Your Lord? - Sh. Yasir Qadhi]
Imam Sufyan Ibn Uyaynah (rahmatullahi ‘alayhi) is reported to have said: “Do not ever
abandon du’a. Do not let that which you know about yourselves (your sins) prevent you
from it, for Allah responded to Iblis while he was the worst of creation. He said “My Lord,
then reprieve me until the Day they are resurrected.” [Allah] said, “So indeed, you are of
those reprieved.” Surah Al-Hijr 15:36-37 [Bayhaqi]

Du’a
‘Aisha (radiyAllahu ‘anha) asked the Prophet (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) “What
should I say on Laylat-ul-qadr?” He replied,
‫ا َلل ُه َّم إنَّ َك َع ُف ٌّو ت ُِح ُّب الْ َع ْف َو فَا ْع ُف َع ِّن ْي‬
Say, “O Allah, You are Al-’Afuww and You love to ‘afw, so fa’fu me”
O Allah, You are forgiving and You love forgiveness, so forgive me. [Tirmidhi]

o Recite the following Takbir on the way to Salat and until the beginning of Salat al Eid:
Allaahu akbar, Allaahu akbar, laa ilaaha illa-Allah, Allaahu akbar, Allaahu akbar, wa
Lillaahi’l-hamd (Allah is Most Great, Allah is Most Great, there is no god except Allah,
Allah is Most Great, Allah is Most Great, and all praise be to Allah).
Abu Mas’ud Uqba ibn ‘Amr al-Ansari al-Badri (radiyAllahu
‘anhu) reported that the Prophet (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa sal-
lam) said, Anyone who shows the way to something good
has the same reward as the person who does it.”
[Muslim]
HASANAH CHASERS
‘Abdullah Bin ‘Amr (radiyAllahu ‘anhu) reported that the Prophet (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa
sallam) said: “There are two acts that no Muslim worshiper does consistently but that he
will enter Jannah. And though they are easy, only few people perform them:
After each of the (five) prayers, say tasbih ten times, tahmid ten times, and takbir ten times.
This makes one hundred fifty (daily extolments) by tongue, and one thousand five hundred
(good deeds in the scale).
Upon going to bed, say takbir thirty-four times, tahmid thirty-three times, and tasbih thirty-
three times. This makes one hundred (extolments) by tongue, and one thousand (good
deeds) in the scale.
‫ُس ْب َحانَ اللَّ ِه‬ ‫الْ َح ْمدُ لِلَّ ِه‬ ‫اللَّهُ أَك رَ ُْب‬
SubhanaAllah Alhamdulillah Allahu Akbar
Glory be to Allah Praise be to Allah God is the Greatest
So who among you would commit

two thousand five hundred sins in
one day (to counter that)?
The Prophet (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) then added: “Satan comes to a person while he
is ready to sleep, and makes him fall asleep before he finishes saying them; and he comes
to him after prayer, and reminds him of something he needs to do instead of saying them.
[Recorded by Abu Dawud, at-Tirmithi & others. Verified to be authentic by al-Albani]
four atkhar that

outweigh many others
Juwayriyah (radiyAllahu ‘anha) reported that the Prophet (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) once
left her house after the morning prayer, while she was sitting in her prayer place extolling
Allah. He returned in the mid-morning and found her still doing the same. He asked her,
“Are you still in the same sitting since I left you?
She replied, “Yes.” He said: Indeed, I said after I left you four statements, three times. If you
weigh them against what you have said since the morning, they would outweigh it:
‫ُس ْب َحانَ اللَّ ِه ِمدَ ا َد كَلِ اَمتِ ِه ُس ْب َحانَ اللَّ ِه ِزنَ َة َع ْر ِش ِه ُس ْب َحانَ اللَّ ِه رِضَ ا نَف ِْس ِه ُس ْب َحانَ اللَّ ِه عَدَ َد َخلْ ِقه‬

[Muslim, Abu Dawud & others]
qiyam / tahajjud
Sahl Bin Sa‘d, Jabir Bin ‘Abdillah, and ‘Ali Bin Abi Talib (radiyAllahu ‘anhuma) all reported
that the Prophet (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said:
Jibril came to me and said, “O Muhammad, live as long as you wish – you will then
surely die; love whomever you wish – you will surely depart from him; and do as you
wish – you will surely be judged according to it. And know that a believer’s honor lies
in his Qiyam at night, and his dignity is in being (financially) independent from other
people. [at-Tabarani, al-Bayhaqi & others]
‘Uqba Ibne-‘Amir (radiyAllahu ‘anhu) narrates: I heard Rasulullah (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa
sallam) saying: One, out of two persons of my Ummah, gets up at night and motivates
himself for Wudu despite not feeling to do so; since, Shaytan had tied knots on him. When
he washes his two hands in Wudu, one knot is loosened; and when he washes his face
another knot is loosened; and when he wipes his head wtih wet hands, another knot is
loosened; and when he washes his feet, yet another knot is loosened. Allah (subhanahu wa
ta’ala) says to those behind the veil – His angels; Look at My slave! How much hardship he
is enduring in dealing with his Nafs (innerself), so now whatever this slave asks of Me, it will
be granted to him. [Musnad Ahmad]
Ibne-‘Abbas (radiyAllahu ‘anhuma) narrates that when the Prophet (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa
sallam) used to wake up for Tahajjud salat during the night, he would make this du’a:
O Allah! All praise be to You; You are the Sustainer of the Heavens and the Earth, and
whosoever is in them, to You be praise. You are the light of the Heavens and the Earth,
and whosoever is in them, to You be praise. You are the King of the Heavens and the
Earth, to You be praise. You are the Truth, Your promise is True, the meeting with
You is a certainty, Your Word is True, Paradise is True, Hell is True, the Prophets are
True, Muhammad (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) is True; the Hour (Day of Resurrection)
is True. O Allah! To You I have surrendered, upon You I believe, upon You I trust, to
You I turn to in repentace, by Your help I have disputed (with the one who does not
believe), and to You I have come for Judgment. So forgive me my past sins, and those
I may do later, my secret and my open sins. You are the One Who enables someone
to move forward in good deeds and You are the One Who defers. And none is worthy
of worship but You. There is no might to resist evil, and no power to do good, except
through Allah. [Bukhari]
Ibne-‘Abbas (radiyAllahu ‘anhuma) narrates: I heard Rasulullah (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa
sallam) reciting this supplication one night, after he had completed his Tahajjud salat:
1. O Allah! I ask You of Your Mercy by which You give guidance to my heart, by which You
make my work easy, and remove my distressed condition by it, and manage my issues
in my absence by it. And give exaltation and honor by Your Mercy; and clean my actions
(from hypocrisy and infidelity) by Your Mercy; and put that thing in my heart, which is
correct and suitable for me; and whatever I like, grant me by Your Mercy; and protect me
©2018
from all evil by Your Mercy.

Ref: 100
2. Oh Allah! Give me that belief and faith after which there may not be any infidelity
and a Mercy enabling me to achieve the blessings of Your gifts in this world and the
hereafter.
3. Oh Allah! I ask of You to give me conviction that Your Decree is the very fulfillment
of my aims, and an entertainment which is offered to martyrs, and a life of the fortunate,
and Your help over enemies.
4. Oh Allah! I place before You my needs, though my understanding is limited, and
my actions are weak, hence I am badly in need of Your Mercy. O the Maker of Affairs and
Healer of the hearts! As You by Your power keep the oceans (running together) separate
from each other (that the saltish remains separate from the sweet and the sweet remains
separate from the saltish); so I request You to keep me away from the punishment of the
Hell-Fire, and the lamentations of the one about to perish, and from the punishment of
the grave.
5. O Allah! I ask You of that goodness which is beyond my understanding and
intention, and which I did not even ask. However, You promised this to anyone of Your
creation, or any goodness which You want to give to any of Your slaves. I desire this and
ask You of it by Your Mercy, O Sustainer of the universe!
6. O You of firm promises and master of good deeds! I ask for Your peace on the
Day of Judgment, and Paradise on the Day of Eternity, to be among Yours Favorites and
regular attendants of Your Court; frequently bowing and prostrating and fulfilling their
promises. You are most Kind and Most Loving, and no doubt You do what You will.
7. O Allah! Make me one who is guided aright, and guides others aright. Do not
misguide me, and do not make me misguide others. I may be in peace with Your friends
and enemy of Your enemies. Those who love You, I should love them for that love of Yours,
and those who are against You, I should have enmity with them due to their enmity with
You.
8. O Allah! It is for us to supplicate, and for You to accept. This is my effort and reliance
is on You.
9. O Allah! Put Nur (light) in my heart, and make my grave illuminated; and grant me
Nur in front of me, Nur at my back, Nur on my right, Nur on my left, Nur above me, Nur
below me, (Your Nur be around me), and Nur in my ears, Nur in my eyes, Nur in every hair
of mine, Nur in my skin, Nur in my flesh, Nur in my blood, and Nur in every bone of mine.
O Allah! Make my Nur enormous, grant me Nur, and make Nur for me.
10. Unblemish is He whose covering is dignity itself and Whose World is Dignified.
Unblemished is He Whose dress is Nobility and Honour. Unblemished is He; and none
can be appropriately called unblemished besides Him. Unblemished is He Who is of
great Excellence and full of Bounties. Unblemished is He Who is of great Dignity and
Generosity. Unblemished is He Who is the Possessor of great Power and Respect. [Tirmidhi]
guidelines
The night extends from sunset to dawn and can be divided in to three parts.
Abu Hurairah (radiyAllahu ‘anhu) reported that the Prophet (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa
sallam) said: Our Lord (subhanahu wa ta’ala) descends every night to the lowest
heaven when only one third of the night has remained. He says, “Who is there invoking
Me, so that I may answer him? Who is there asking Me, so that I may give him? Who is
there seeking My forgiveness, so that I may forgive him?” [Bukhari & Muslim]
Jabir (radiyAllahu ‘anhu) reported that he heard the Prophet (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa
sallam) say: There is an hour of the night during which no Muslim person would
happen to be asking Allah for a favor from this life or the hereafter, but that Allah
grants it to him. And this is true every night. [Muslim and Ahmad]
Aisha (radiyAllahu ‘anha) reported: Allah’s Messenger (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) use
to sleep in the early part of the night, and wake up (for worship) during its last part.
[Bukhari, Muslim & others]
determining the last third

of the night
The night extends from sunset to dawn, and can be divided into three
parts. If, for instance, sunset is at 6:00 pm and dawn at 4:30 am, the night
is then 10 1/2 hours long, and each one third is 3 1/2 hours long. The last
third would then extend from 1:00 am to 4:30 am.

Moderation
notes
Take upon yourselves only deeds that you can (consistently) maintain, for, by Allah, Allah is
never tired (i.e., never stops accepting your good deeds) until you are (by interrupting your
heavy worship). [Bukhari & Muslim]
Attentiveness
When one of you becomes sleepy while praying, let him lie down until sleep departs from
him. Indeed, when one of you prays while he is sleepy, instead of seeking forgiveness, he
might curse himself. [Bukhari & Muslim]
Constancy
The most beloved deeds to Allah are the most constant, even if they are little.
[Bukhari & Muslim]

Prayer of Repentance
Salat al-Tawba
“Turn towards Allah, O believers, every one of you, so that you may be successful.” (24:31)
Abu Bakr (radiyAllahu ‘anhu) narrates: I heard the Messenger of Allah (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa
sallam) saying: Whenever a slave (of Allah) commits a sin, then he performs Wudu properly
and offers two rak’at salat and seeks forgiveness from Allah, Allah forgives him. Then the
Messenger of Allah (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) recited these verses:
“And those who, when they do an evil thing or wrong themselves, remember Allah
and implore forgiveness for their sins - Who forgives sins save Allah only? - and will
not knowingly repeat (the wrong) they did.” [Surah ‘Ali ‘Imran 3:135] reported by [Abu
Dawud]
Hasan (Rahimahullah) narrates that Rasulullah (salAllahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: There is
not a slave (of Allah) who commits a sin, then performs Wudu and does it properly, then
goes to an open plain and offers two rak’at salat and seeks forgiveness for that sin indeed
Allah forgives him. [Baihaqi]
O Allah, Your forgiveness is far more extensive than my sins and Your forgiveness is
far more promising unto me than my (good) actions. So please forgive me. Ameen.
Prayer of Need
Salat al-Hajah
‘Abdullah ibne-Abu Awfa Al Aslami (radiyAllahu ‘anhuma) narrates that Rasulullah (salAllahu
‘alayhi wa sallam) came to us and said: Whoever is confronted with a need, relating either
to Allah or to any of his creation, he should perform Wudu and offer two raka’at salat, and
©2018
then supplicate:
Ref: 100
There is none worthy of worship but Allah the Clement, the Bountiful; Glorified be
Allah, the Lord of the tremendous Throne; Praise be to Allah, the Sustainer of the
worlds. O Allah! I ask from You everything that leads to Your Mercy and ensures Your
Forgiveness; I ask You for abundance in all that is virtuous; I ask You to leave no sin of
mine but that You have removed it; an no want except that which met Your pleasure
and You have fulfilled it for me.
After this supplicate to Allah for whatever you want pertaining to this world or the hereafter,
undoubtedly it will be answered. [Ibne-Majah]
disclaimer: There have been some concerned about salat Al-Hajah and salat Al-Tawbah as part of the sunnah.
After contacing a few scholars for their opinion I was told to keep them so I have. If these prayers make you
uncomfortable then don’t perform them and contact a person of knowledge to give you clarity on the matter.
May Allah grant us hidayah to practice His deen in the most pleasing way to Him. Ameen.

Abdullah ibne-’Amir ibnil ‘Aas
Ref: 100
(radiyAllahu ‘anhuma) narrates

that Rasulullah (salAllahu ‘alayhi
wa sallam) recited the verses of

Al-Qur’an in which Allah Ta ala
mentions the supplication of
Ibrahim (‘alayhis-salaam):
“O my Lord! they have indeed
led astray many among
mankind; He then who follows
my (ways) is of me, and he
that disobeys me,- but Thou
art indeed Oft-forgiving, Most
Merciful. [Ibrahim 14:36]
He also recited the verse that
mentions the supplication of ‘Isa
(‘Alaihis Salaam):
If You should punish them -
indeed they are Your servants;
but if You forgive them - indeed
it is You who is the Exalted
in Might, the Wise. [Al-Maidah
5:118]
Then he raised his hands and
prayed “O Allah! My Ummah! My
Ummah!” and wept. So, Allah
the Almighty and Majestic said: O
Jibrail! Go to Muhammad, though
Your Rabb knows everything; still
ask, what makes you weep? Jibrail
came to him and asked the same.

anxiety for his Ummah). Jibrail
