1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,520
Ever wondered how the greatest 
man to ever walk the earth spent

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:07,240
the holiest month of the year? 
This is how Prophet Muhammad, 

3
00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:11,880
peace be upon him, embraced 
Ramadan When the Crescent moon 

4
00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:15,280
was sighted, the Prophet would 
welcome Ramadan with a beautiful

5
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:19,840
supplication asking Allah for 
faith, safety and blessings. 

6
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:25,000
Ramadan did not bring stress 
into his life, it brought peace.

7
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:28,960
It was never about food, 
decorations or routines. 

8
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:33,040
It was always about the heart. 
At night, the Prophet would 

9
00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:37,480
stand in prayer for long hours. 
He recited the Quran slowly, 

10
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:40,160
thoughtfully and with deep 
emotion. 

11
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,760
Sometimes his feet would swell 
from standing so long. 

12
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:48,160
Yet he continued, not out of 
burden, but out of love for 

13
00:00:48,160 --> 00:00:50,680
Allah. 
When Ayesha, may Allah be 

14
00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:54,480
pleased with her, asked why he 
worshipped so much when his sins

15
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:58,280
were already forgiven, he 
replied, should I not be a 

16
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:01,160
grateful servant? 
His fasting was simple. 

17
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,400
His souhor was only a few dates 
and water. 

18
00:01:04,879 --> 00:01:08,200
His iftar was the same. 
Sometimes there was milk, 

19
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,880
sometimes nothing more. 
He never overate. 

20
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:15,720
He taught that the worst 
container a person can fill is 

21
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:19,000
the stomach. 
For him, Ramadan was never a 

22
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:23,520
feast, it was a fast. 
During Ramadan, his generosity 

23
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:27,440
increased even more. 
Ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased 

24
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,720
with him, said the Prophet was 
like a wind, said with mercy 

25
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:35,000
evening to everyone. 
He fed the poor, broke fast with

26
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:39,520
those in need, forgave more, 
smiled more and prayed more. 

27
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:43,640
Every night in Ramadan, Angel 
Gibreel would visit him to 

28
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:48,120
revise the Quran together, and 
in the last 10 nights, the 

29
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,560
Prophet would isolate himself in
the mosque, fully devoted to 

30
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:55,960
worship, searching for Leila Tul
Khadr, a night better than 1000 

31
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,680
months. 
So how did the Prophet celebrate

32
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,280
Ramadan? 
Through worship, through 

33
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:05,040
service, through Quran, through 
gratitude. 

34
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:08,199
And maybe that is what we have 
forgotten. 

35
00:02:08,759 --> 00:02:11,680
Let us return to the true spirit
of Ramadan. 

36
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:17,280
Let us fast like He fasted, pray
like He prayed, and live like He

37
00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:20,480
lived. 
Do not forget to like, share and

38
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:24,040
subscribe so more hearts can 
reconnect this Ramadan.
