Ref: Calling for preparation for Holy Month of Ramadan

Bismillah Rahman Raheem, In the name of Allah Most Merciful the Compassionate, I hereby call your attention as per reference, that the holy month of Ramadan is expected to start on Friday the 28th of February 2025 upon completion of this Month of Shaban expected to be 29 days starting counting from today as 1st Shaban 1446. The prayer of our beloved Last messenger of Allah for these three scared months is Aallah Barik lana fi Rajab Wa Shaban, wabillighuna Ramadan, meaning “Or Ya Allah shower your blessings upon us in the month of Rajab and Shaban, and enable us reach holy month of Ramadan”  

The Holy Month of Ramadan is command of Allah to fast the entire month without fail unless in cases of sickness, journey or old age, pregnancy or breast feeding in mothers. It’s the fourth pillar of Islam that mandatory to every one who is a Muslim and a true believer, those who are true believers you will see them making excuses, Allah says they are going to Jahannama for not fasting. If you miss fasting in case of Journey or temporary sickness, you must fast those days you missed after Ramadan, as for old age, Pregnancy, breat feeding and permanent sickness without cure from it soon, then you must pay “Fidiya” means feed the poor those who are fasting. So, we have 29 days getting ready for fasting, be aware of confusion at the beginning of fasting where some people who are NOT true believers but they say they are Muslim confuse you regarding sighing of the moon and they lie intentionally to the public that there is NO moon sighted, while others are fasting, them and their followers continue to eat in Ramadan, they deserve to go to Jahannama for misleading believers they do not fear Allah, these are so called Sunni Ulama Council, do not listen to them, Wait for the announcement from office of the Grand Mufti of South Africa.   

 Yours faithfully
