Do you know the famous quote by Oprah Winfrey, who once said about the New Year, \u2018here\u2019s to another chance to make it right<\/em><\/strong>? I feel that way about Ramadan. Every time we arrive in another Ramadan, it never feels just like another Ramadan. It feels like we are so utterly blessed to be given another chance to make it right with ourselves, our surroundings, and Allah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While we live in this world, we have an obligation to take care of our soul by doing the mandated acts of worship that Allah has prescribed to us. Intellectually, we are thoroughly familiar with that notion. Nonetheless, none of us are perfect. None of us are angels and we all have our weaknesses. None of us are totally rational beings and sometimes we are ruled by our emotions. We all have that moment when we are just not at the peak of our spirituality. Fortunately, if we realize our mistakes and sincerely ask for forgiveness, Allah will give us so many chances. And one of those \u2018other chances\u2019 is during Ramadan, where there are so many awesome things to do to improve yourself and your imaan. I list five of them below. If you have been going down the wrong path, it\u2019s time to turn back. If you have been doing well, it\u2019s time to up your game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
