His Eminence Sheikh Ahmad al-Noor al-Helw, a member of the Muslim Council of Elders and the Grand Mufti of the Republic of Chad, emphasizes the importance of increasing acts of devotion and doing good deeds during the holy month of Ramadan. Ramadan is the month of goodness and blessings, ordained for this Ummah to foster closeness to Allah and develop piety, as Allah says, \u201cO believers! Fasting is prescribed for you\u2014as it was for those before you\u2014so perhaps you will become pious (mindful of Allah)\u201d [The Quran, 2:183]. This piety in Ramadan is gained through fasting and its related acts of kindness towards the fasting, the poor, and the needy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the tenth episode of the ‘Humanitarian Values with the Elders’ program, which is broadcast on the platforms of the Muslim Council of Elders, His Eminence explained that Allah Almighty has given wealth to the rich to test them with the poor, bestowing His grace upon them and then commanding them to spend, as Allah says, \u201cAnd donate from what We have provided for you before death comes to one of you, and you cry, \u2018My Lord! If only You delayed me for a short while, I would give in charity and be one of the righteous.\u2019 But Allah never delays a soul when its appointed time comes. And Allah is All-Aware of what you do\u201d [The Quran, 63:10-11]. His Eminence further noted that there are many such verses that especially command the believer during seasons of goodness to outdo others in charity, reflecting the generosity of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), which was at its peak during Ramadan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
His Eminence Sheikh Al-Helw added that it is essential for Muslims to increase their acts of obedience and good deeds during this blessed month to gain Allah’s satisfaction and love, ensuring success in this life and the hereafter. Fortunate is the one who utilizes this month to amass goodness and show benevolence to others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
During Ramadan, the Muslim Council of Elders broadcasts five Ramadan programs: ‘Al-Imam Al-Tayeb’, ‘One Ummah’, ‘Humanitarian Values with the Elders’, ‘Month of Harmonious Coexistence’, and ‘Our Ethics, as part of the Council’s media strategy to use all platforms to promote and enhance the values of dialogue, peace, tolerance, and human coexistence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
