[[-2nd Outing -]]
------------------

*Digest this if you can't perform i‘tikāf:*

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Majority of Muslims love to perform i‘tikāf (total seclusion inside the masjid) in the last 10 DAYS of Ramadan BUT certain genuine reasons could not allowed them.. There's nothing to worry about because there's alternative to harvesting all the goodies shared to you.

Muslim Faithful,!

The last ten nights of Ramadan are very special. The first of these nights occurs on the eve of the 21st day of Ramadan. In other words, it is the night that commences after the completion of the 20th day of fasting. Sometimes there are only nine nights, whenever the month of Ramadan lasts for only 29 days. Nevertheless, they are still traditionally referred to as “the last ten nights.”

The last ten nights of Ramadan are very special. These are the nights that the Prophet (Peace be upon him) would spend in constant worship. Among these nights is Lailatul Qadr – a night more blessed than a thousand months.. And the best Du'a to be said countless times everyday anytime in these days - (with or without ablution), while in menses, while walking, driving, sitting, cleaning the house, inside or outside swalah is the Du'a Nana Aisha (r.a.) thought us.

  ((اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ عُفُوٌّ كَرِيمٌ تُحِبُّ الْعَفْوَ فَاعْفُ عَنِّي))

"O Allah, You are Forgiving and Generous, and you love forgiveness, so forgive me.'” 📚[Narrated by Imam Ahmad, al-Tirmidhi and Ibn Majah. Its isnad is Sahih]

Now,

Aside the acts mentioned in the previous episode, here is another thing you can do on the last 10 night of Ramadan (if you are not performing itikaaf - In shaa Allah:

*Tip No 3:* Recitation of the glorious Quran

In the month of Ramadan, rewards of good deeds are multiplied.

Now,

How do u see the SPEED of machine when u go to purchase petrol from the filling stations❓Metre reader rushing seriously right❓This is exactly how our rewards rushes when we recite Quran. *Each letter* of Quran is 10 rewards. Meaning if u say   ~  ~  *بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم*         you have 180 rewards cheaply to urself.

My people!

For those who can not read all the chapters of the Qur'an bcos they have not finished learning it, they should read all the chapters or verses they have learnt repeadly everyday or anytime they want to engage in Qur'an recitation.

After all,

The Prophet (pbuh) said: “Verily the one who recites the Quran beautifully, smoothly, and precisely, he will be in the company of the noble and obedient angels.. And as for the one who recites with *difficulty, stammering or stumbling through its verses,* then he will have *TWICE* that reward.”
📚 (Sahih Al-Bukhari).

So,

From the above hadith, we can understand that a person will get the double reward that is trying hard and doing extra effort to learn and recite Quran for pleasing Allah Almighty.

Bearing in mind that, the more verses you read perday, the more rewards 📚Evidence:

Nana Aishah (r.a) reported:

"Whoever recites a letter from Allah's Book, then he receives the reward from it, and the reward of ten the like of it. I do not say that Alif Lam Mim is a letter, but Alif is a letter, Lam is a letter and Mim is a letter 📚(Sunan At-Tirmizi

*Tip No 4:* Give charity and help the needy.
