To prepare for the month of Ramadan, you need to start off by thinking about what it is, how blessed the month is.

Amazing verse in the Quran;
O you who have believed, be persistently standing firm in justice, witnesses for Allāh, even if it be against yourselves or parents and relatives. Whether one is rich or poor, Allāh is more worthy of both.1 So follow not [personal] inclination, lest you not be just. And if you distort [your testimony] or refuse [to give it], then indeed Allāh is ever, of what you do, Aware. Quran- 4:135
Surah An-Nisa, which is obviously dedicated to the women. One thing that is clear in the Surah, Allah has repeated the issue of justice several times in the Surah.
May Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta’ala grant us an understanding that when we came, we brought nothing. When we are going to leave, we will leave with nothing besides our deeds.
Allah says, O you who believe, stand stead fast for justice, for the sake of Allah, whether it be against your own parents or your relatives, your children, whoever it may be, the rich or the poor.

Some of us finds it tough to get married. It’s true. It is a challenge. I’ve always said it was easier to marry when we knew less people.

This one is about family and family matters and sacrifices that you need to make sometimes in order to keep your family together.
‘They said, “If he steals – a brother of his has stolen before.” But Joseph kept it within himself and did not reveal it to them. He said, “You are worse in position, and Allah is most knowing of what you describe.”’
Quran:12:77
Sometimes you need to tolerate people’s misbehavior for a bigger cause. You need to recognize that you are part of a bigger picture. You as a Muslim, are part of a bigger picture.
What you do affects other people and reflects on your family reflects on your community, reflects on the ummah itself. The consequence of knowing that is sometimes you got to take a hit yourself.

We will show them Our signs in the horizons and within themselves until it becomes clear to them that it is the truth. But is it not sufficient concerning your Lord that He is, over all things, a Witness? Verse (41:53)
When calamity strikes in your life and it has to strike at some point, the first thing a believer should do is connect to Allah.
Allah describes the believers and Allah says, those whom when calamity strikes, when difficulty and hardship befalls them, the first thing they say and they utter is ‘we belong to Allah and unto Him we shall all return.’
If you are content at calamity that struck you, inshallah, you’re a good person. But if you are struggling and you are really battling and it’s changed you in the negative way and it’s made you even worse, you have to look at yourself.
Ask yourself the first question have you ever harmed someone?
