Allahumma salli 'ala Muhammad wa 'ala Alee Muhammad wa Ajjil Farajahum There are people who wish to fast more than they are able, but some obstacles or personal reasons will hinder them from that. I want to share an experience I had in the last month of Ramadhan and the months of Dhul-Hijja and if anyone has had the same. The one I had in the month of Ramadhan have I unfortunately forgotten if it happened while I was going to sleep after breaking my fast or if it was after I had come home from work and wanted to sleep the remaining time until it was time for maghrib. I'm more sure of it being the latter one. The second one was for the night to the first of Dhul-Hijja in my region but for the most of other regions it would have been the second Dhul-Hijja. I fasted with my sunni community their first of Dhul-Hijja and for the shias in Iraq that would also have been their first Dhul-Hijja, but not 100 % in the upper region of Scandinavia. Both of the instances had the same phenomenon happening in a dream. The one in ramadhan was more pleasing. All I could see was light and I was aware that this happened while I was lying down. White light was flowing through me and I felt I was encompassed by it from the back and the sides, it felt like being surrounded by wind touching you. And the light made loud sounds, that was what stood out the most. I don't remember the sounds anymore but at that time I interpreted it as sounds from angels. I was terrified and thought I was going to die but the experience was very pleasing, it was pure bliss. Because I was scared all I could do was calling out Allah's Subhana wa Ta'ala's name and other phrases for help. I woke up from that and was taken aback by the experience. In the dream it felt very long but when I woke up it felt like what happened was only the blink of an eye. I woke up and my mother had just entered the room I was sleeping in. In Dhul-Hijja it was the night where I made my intention to fast for the first of Dhul-Hijja after my second fast. The experience was exactly the same but this one was different in that it had squeezes coming in waves. The light was there but when I felt the squeezes, they would disappear. I would one moment see and feel the light and in another moment the wave of squeezing. I woke up and noticed the dreams likeness with the one in Ramadhan. Fajr was in about 10-15 minutes, I went back to sleep and had a wonderful dream with my mother, until I again woke up still smiling from the dream and fajr had just begun. Because of my bodily weakness I couldn't fast that day. My back begins to hurt, I'm already underweight. May Allah Subhana wa Ta'ala ease everyone's hardships. This world is not worth being in grief over. Wa alaikumasalam wa rahmatullah wa barakatuh

I would like to understand what determines a month being 29 or 30 days. Is there a logic behind it ? Being a complete ignorant, I would think it is all about a sighting issue : two countries beginning a month on a same day, if one sees the moon at the end of the month then it may be 29, whereas the second country will wait, making it 30. So some kind of 'tolerance' given by the Prophet (sawas). All that so 12 months can fit in a 354/355-day year. Am I correct ?

Salam, can anyone advise me? Thank you

Salaam Alaikum, I had a question please about fasting. Since I started fasting 13 days ago every single day I get gagging (feel to vomit but nothing coming out) throughout the fast 3-4 times a day at least. On Saturday I threw up after my fast and didn’t fast on Monday. I started fasting again yesterday and the same problem is happening. Please can you advise me on what I shall do? Thank you so much.

I reverted to Islam in December 2006. I have been doing ghusl wrong all these years by ignorance, not from laziness. I would make niyyat and wash my body, but never knew I had to wet my hair. So, because of my ignorance, do I have to do over, to make up and redo all my prayers of the past and all my fasts of the months of Ramadhan for the past 6 years? Jazakallah khairan for your answer! (wasalam)

Salaams, This year , Ramadhan has fallen on a very important study and exam period of mine as these exams will determine whether I get into University. Due to this, I haven't been fasting as having water improves my concentration whilst learning. I tried fasting and struggled to concentrate, got very tired and struggled to understand concepts. It was my niyyah to fast this month, and every morning I make an intention to fast, but then break my fast saying it is hard for me to study. I do taqleed of Ayotallah Sistani, who says break the fast when it is unbearable, and I find it unbearable to study without any water or energy. I tried fasting at night but struggled a lot as Im not an evening person and have never been able to study in the evening. I live in the UK where the fasts are 19 hours long, so it becomes very difficult for me. Could you advise me on whether I should be paying kaffarah on this and what I should do? Thank you

Assalamualaikum I want to ask something since I'm still new here in shia Islam. I found soo many good dua in the website that would be good if we recite it on the night of Ramadhan. But I found myself overwhelmed if I have to recite all those dua in one night. Would you recommend what good dua for me?

As-salaamu alaykum, Today I slept past fajr time accidentally in a state of junub, approximately an hour past. It wasn't my intention to sleep at all, however I had simply fallen asleep without intention. My intention was always to do ghusl before fajr time, yet I wasn't able to do this as shown above. Do I now have to pay kaffarah, or simply one qadha fast? Also, is there any chance my fast is still valid considering I did ghusl as soon as I woke up?

Salam. My friend and I are debating whether Kaffarah fasting counts in Ramadan. Basically, if a person breaks an oath, and is not able to: free a slave / feed sixty poor / etc. just as Ramadan is arriving, then do his 3 consecutive fasts count? Regardless of Ramadan fasts being wajib/compulsory?

Salam. What's the best thing to do in your opinion regarding breaking iftar before or after prayers? I thought of doing it after prayers, because otherwise I would lose my concentration (think about the food), and I would also like to read duas etc. which would take like, 15 min extra, and I would delay the sitting with my family. But then we have the talk about "praying on time". Hm.. I don't know what I exactly should do. Maybe pray maghrib first, short duas, and then eat, and then pray again. But, what do you do?

Salaams, I am a follower of Ayatullah Sistani (as). My situation is as follows, I want to attend a protest in the holy month of Ramadan, the venue is 30 miles away and I pray Qasr there. If I leave after Zuhr, and return before Maghrib will my fast be accepted? If it is not accepted, is it Haraam for me to go there? Thanks in advance JazakAllah Khair

(Bismillah) (Salam) I would like to share a Dua daily for the whole month of Ramadhan. If anyone else would like to contribute, please do so. Thank you! The Dua'as I share will need a transliteration, if anyone can, kindly share it So others may benefit. JazakAllah khayr Day 1: بسم الله الرحمن ارحيم اللهم اجعل صيامي فيه صيام اصاءمين وقيامي فيه قيام اقاءمين ونبهني فيه عن نومة الغافلين وهب لي جرمي فيه يا اله العالمين واعف عني يا عافيا عن المجر مين اللهم صلى على محمد وال محمد Translation: In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, The Merciful. O Allah, on this day, make my fast the fasts of those who fast (sincerely). & my standing up in prayer of those who stand up in prayer (obediently). Awaken me in it from the sleep of the heedless. & forgive my sins, O God of the worlds. O Allah, bless Mohammed & the family of Mohammed.

The Creator has graced us with another month of Ramadan, the greatest month of all. This should remind us of where we were in the last Ramadan and how much progress we have made since then. The sign of an intelligent and wise person is that they analyze their progression every year, every month, and every day of their life. Times like these provide us and facilitate us with an opportunity to re-analyze ourselves.

Sunni Brothers, I've a question, please don't get angry or start cursing. This is just a question, I really want to learn. Why Sunnis love the known enemies of the Prophet (pbuh) ? Some examples of Sunnis loving the enemies of Prophet are: 1. Sunnis love Aisha who used to hurt, taunt, hate, waged war on Prophet's Ahlulbayt. 2. Sunnis love Umer who said he will kill the prophet right before he converted. 3. Sunnis love Khalid bin Walid who was the leader of the Kuffar in Battle of Ohud. 4. Sunnis love Muawiah who waged wars on prophet until the conquest of Makkah. 5. Sunnis love Abu Sufyan who was the leader of Kuffar of Makkah until the conquest of Makkah. Yes Prophet (pbuh) forgave them after the conquest of Makkah, but the question is, "Did they Forgive the Prophet for bringing Islam to the people"?

I was reading things online and I am confused about travelling rules and fasting during the month of Ramadhan. Last Monday, I left my house at 10:30am (after fajr) to reach my parents' house around 1:15pm (after zhur), which is about 145 km (90 miles) away from my house. I left my parents' house Tuesday afternoon at 5pm to reach my house at about 7pm. I fasted on both Monday and Tuesday. When I'm at my parents' house, I always offer full prayers. Were my fasts valid or do I have to make them up? What is the limit (km/mi) for it to be considered a travel? Am I supposed to offer shortened prayers when i go to my parents'? Jazakallah Khairan for your answers! (wasalam)

Salam Bros/Sisters, InshaAllah your Ramadhan is blessed. I've been reading various spiritual posts on SC and thought you might have a clue to a few things I wanted to ask about. 1. I try reading Ziarat-e-Ashura daily. Now I want to read Ziarat-e-Ashura for certain days for some special dua to Allah swt. Do you know the procedure? Do I have to say 100 Laan and 100 salams? Does it has to be 40 days? Can it be for say 3 days or 10 days? If one of you have a particular procedure written somewhere, please do share. 2. Those of you who have witnessed one, what ONE specific act which caused you to receive the noor of Allah swt? Was it your Istighfar or Shukr or Salat or any particula Dua that you read every day, or your lowering your gaze, or your some particualr civil service? Thanks for reading and responding.
