What's new

What is one habit from this Ramadan that you want to maintain till next Ramadan and for the rest of your life? [Accountability Thread]

Yes mainly Quran and Islamic lectures and duroos. That is what I’ve replaced music with for the most part too. Alhamdullilah.

Sometimes when I’m doing heavy set at the gym temptation comes to push through, usually am able to resist putting on some music, but if it’s still there then I will just put on nasheed like the above.

Being able to sit through discomfort without resorting to numbing the senses in a haram way basically.

Nice.

I may listen to this nasheed if I am working out (it has no music I believe):

Bump.

Anything new? @Suleiman :inti

As for me, my intensity has gone down. But, I prayed all fard prayers. Alhamdulillah. Need to do more I guess.

Same. Within last 2 weeks. Still showing up to masjid once a day though on average. Alhamdullilah.

Ramadan is getting closer. Only around 4 months away.

Yessir.

Have to tighten the screws, ngl have fallen off a bit last few weeks. Instead of getting stuck in that rut have to maintain the obligatory practices because then they affect the rest of the day.
 
Seems like we might need to (metaphorically) pray janaza of Farhan bhai. I have missed his biting critiques.

Yeah. Same here.

I have been a bit loose lately. But, I have been praying the 5 Fard prayers regularly. Alhamdulillah.

Need to add a bit of daily Quran recitation and daily dhikr I guess.

He vanished after everyone realized what his original account from many years ago on PP was. He’s had some run ins with the The Dark Knight let’s just say :asghar

But tbf his trauma was a good weekly reminder to stay on course

What was his original account ?

Farhan was a bold fresh piece of humanity. I liked his scathing commentary on pakistani and islamic issues. Lot of truth in what he said even though he would sometimes exaggerate. :leo

I have had a bit of a challenging year this year (family issues and my own mental exhaustion from life in general). It has impacted my religiosity and khushoo in salah.

Anyway, despite all the issues, I haven't missed any Fard salah and didn't miss any Ramadan fast. Alhamdulillah. May Allah accept and forgive if there was any shortcoming.

I can run away from many of these issues. But, Islam doesn't give me permission to run away from certain issues. This world is a testing ground I guess.
 
I personally want to try to keep up with my goals of reading Qur'an every day with translation, had some slip ups every now and then but want to try to stay as consistent as possible and then ramping it up during Ramadan, and then also try to practice daily dhikr more often, and going to most Taraweehs (trying for all in the last 10 days) InshaAllah.
 
So, it has been one year almost (since the last Ramadan).

How did we do? :inti

I have prayed all the fard prayers. Alhamdulillah. Tried to fulfill other fard obligations to the best of my ability.

Maybe could've done better with sunnah/nafl activities. But, I was a bit distracted throughout the year. It impacted my khushoo a bit.

Hoefully we will all have a great Ramadan and beyond. In sha Allah.

Excitement is brewing.

Ramadan is close.

Can you believe it's almost been a year already?

May Allah swt allow us to experience it and benefit from it.

Ameen bro.

Seeing Ramadan come and go is the real “new year” type feeling for me. Looking back at goals spiritual and worldly that we were able to stick to or fell short.

But man time flies… everyone’s been saying that for years, but it feels even faster now lol. Remember making this thread as if it was 2-5 months ago at most.

@finalfantasy7 bhai already keeping fasts outside of Ramadan, may Allah SWT accept it and bless it for him.

That’s the goal for me in and out of Ramadan too, and am sure for many others. Monday and Thursday fast.

Indeed. @finalfantasy7 is racking up those voluntary fasts. Very rewarding. May Allah (SWT) accept and give him reward.

We should also aim to do these voluntary things as much as we can. Voluntary fasts during winter is easy because days are shorter.

I wish I could do more. May Allah (SWT) make things easy for us. Ameen.
