Ramadan,The Month of Blessings

Peerzada Mohsin Shafi


In the holy month of Ramadan,

The blessed month that we cherish,

We fast from dawn till dusk,

To purify our soul and nourish.


The Quran was revealed in this month,

A source of guidance and light,

We read and reflect on its verses,

To strengthen our faith and insight.


We break our fast with dates and water,

And feast on delicious meals,

But we also remember the less fortunate,

And share with them our meals.


Ramadan teaches us patience,

And self-discipline as well,

We learn to control our desires,

And our hearts begin to swell.


We perform Taraweeh prayers,

And seek Allah's forgiveness and grace,

We make dua for our loved ones,

And for the whole human race.


Ramadan brings us closer,

To Allah and to each other,

We feel the bonds of brotherhood,

And we love one another.


So let us embrace this blessed month,

And strive to make the most of it,

May Allah shower His blessings on us,

And guide us on the path that is lit.
