RAMADAN Month of the believers  Month of golden opportunities not silvers  Month of forgivable sins turning into divas  Believers reciting the Quran in verses.  RAMADAN A month of full commitment  During these days no sentiment  No doubt about its testament  Alters believers lifes with glaring improvement.  RAMADAN You hear the believers saying Marhaban A month where all evil deeds are ban(ned) Shaytan, the devil is being hanged in ropes  Where Muslims strives for Jannah with ultimate hopes  All believers are enjoined to do good  Sharing among others, even their food Simply a means of sadaqah, they're not fool The rewards can't be summed, but great and full RAMADAN So special among other months Selected above, higher like a mont  Specialised to cleanse our sin(s) To make believers to be more immerse on their Deen RAMADAN I salute your personality  Indeed ...
