[2:185] The month of Ramazan is that in which the Quran was revealed, a guidance to men and clear proofs of the guidance and the distinction; therefore whoever of you is present in the month, he shall fast therein, and whoever is sick or upon a journey, then (he shall fast) a (like) number of other days; Allah desires ease for you, and He does not desire for you difficulty, and (He desires) that you should complete the number and that you should exalt the greatness of Allah for His having guided you and that you may give thanks.
German: Der Monat Ramad?n ist der, in welchem der Koran herabgesandt ward: eine Weisung für die Menschheit, deutliche Beweise der Führung und (göttliche) Zeichen. Wer also da ist von euch in diesem Monat, der möge ihn durchfasten; ebenso viele andere Tage aber, wer krank oder auf Reisen ist. Allah wünscht euch erleichtert und wünscht euch nicht beschwert, und daß ihr die Zahl (der Tage) erfüllen und Allah preisen möchtet dafür, daß Er euch richtig geführt hat, und daß ihr dankbar sein möchtet.
The month of Ramadan has arrived again, the month of fasting and prayer. It is the month that provides an opportunity for forgiveness from Allah and emancipation from our sins. It is the month for performing good deeds and giving in charity. It is the month when the gates of the heavens are opened and the rewards for our deeds are magnified many times over. It is the month wherein prayers are answered and the status of the worshipper is elevated. It is the month wherein sins are forgiven.
We should welcome this month and embrace it with happiness and joy. We should have the truest resolve to observe the fasts and the prayers and to compete in doing righteous deeds. During this month, we should ardently repent for all of our sins and encourage each other to engage in virtuous deeds and call to what is right and forbid what is wrong. In this way, we will succeed in attaining the blessings and the great rewards of Ramadan......Read more Articles about Ramadan
