Brief Overview of the Month of Ramadhan:
By Dr. Raza Dungersi

Hence this month of fasting is called “Ramadhan”. By some accounts, the word “Ramadhan” is one of the divine names; Masoomeen have therefore advised us, out of respect, to address this month as “Shahr Ramadhan”, or the month of Ramadhan and not simply Ramadhan.

Hadith of the Month

الإمامُ الصّادقُ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): نَومُ الصائمِ عِبادَةٌ، وصَمتُهُ تَسبيحٌ، وعَمَلُهُ مُتَقَبَّلٌ، ودُعاؤهُ مُستَجابٌ.

‘A fasting person’s sleep is worship, his silence is glorification of Allah, his good deeds are accepted, and his supplication is answered.’[al-Faqih, v. 2, p. 76, no. 1783] - Imam Jafar as-Sadiq (AS)
