In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent the Most

Merciful

Indeed all praise belongs to Allah. We praise Him and seek

His help and forgiveness, and seek refuge in Him from our

own evil self and from our misdeeds. No one can misguide

whom Allah guides, and no one can guide him whom He

allows to remain in misguidance.

And I testify that there is no deity besides Allah, and I

testify that Mohammad (peace be upon him) is His slave

and Messenger.

O ye who believe! Fear Allah as He should be feared, and

die not except in a state of Islam.

O mankind! reverence your Guardian-Lord, who created

you from a single person, created, of like nature, His mate,

and from them twain scattered (like seeds) countless men

and women;- reverence Allah, through whom ye demand

your mutual (rights), and (reverence) the wombs (That bore

you): for Allah ever watches over you.

O ye who believe! Fear Allah, and (always) say a word

directed to the Right:

That He may make your conduct whole and sound and

forgive you your sins: He that obeys Allah and His

Messenger, has already attained the highest achievement.

( ش ح ٣إ ٣لؼ ش ح أ هللا س ؿالظ شذجد ال ٣ؼظ الت 6 )

O ye who believe! save yourselves and your families from

a Fire whose fuel is Men and Stones, over which are

(appointed) angels stern (and) severe, who flinch not (from

executing) the Commands they receive from Allah, but do

(precisely) what they are commanded.

The blessed month of Ramadan is not just a month of

fasting where the believers abstain from the usual pleasures

of life for a month. It is a month of mercy, forgiveness and

being released from hellfire. We are urged to be generous

in this month and our Creator also shows His infinite

generosity by way of His mercy and forgiveness and

releases us from Hell fire.

A hadith is often quoted on this issue whose authenticity

has been questions.

ity of the hadith reported from What is the authentic

Salman Al Farsi, may Allah be pleased with him, who said:

The Messenger of Allah, peace be upon Him gave us a

sermon at the end of the month of Shaban in which He

(pbuh) said:

lessed "Oh people! A great month has come over you; a b

month; a month in which is a night better than a thousand

months; month in which Allah has made it compulsory

upon you to fast by day, and voluntary to pray by night.

Whoever draws nearer (to Allah) by performing any of the

reward as performing an obligatory deed at any other time,

and whoever discharges an obligatory deed in (this month)

shall receive the reward of performing seventy obligations

All praise belongs to Allah.

This hadith is reported by Ibn Khudaima in his collection of

Hadith and he said, “if the report is authentic.” The word,

“if” is not mentioned in some references such as in the

book Al Targeeub Wa Al Tarheeb by Imam Mundhiri.

tioned the They were of the opinion that Ibn Khudaima men

report was authentic. And he was not sure about it.

Several other collections of hadith have reported this

may Allah be hadith, all of them from Salman Al Farsi,

pleased with him.

The chain of transmission of this hadith is weak due to two

reasons.

1. Saeed ibn Musayyab did not hear from Salman Al Farsi,

2. The chain of transmission includes Ali bin Juda‟an who

weak narrator by several has been considered to be a

scholars of hadith who did not accept this hadith as

authentic.

In addition there is a problem with the text of this ahadith

as well. For example the division of the month into three

ess and periods of ten days each, that of mercy, forgiven

release from hell fire. There is no proof for this division

since the favors of Allah are very wide and the entire

month of Ramadan is full of mercy and forgiveness. Allah

releases many people from the hell fire every night and at

ng as is proved by other ahadith. the time of fasti

زج ال د٤ ػ٤ ذ جحكس حكس جلش٣ؼس كش٣ؼس ك٢ سؼح ؿ٤ش ،

And similarly the statement that “whoever draws nearer (to

Allah) by performing any of the (optional) good deeds in

th) shall receive the same reward as performing (this mon

an obligatory deed at any other time” is not supported by

evidence since a voluntary act is a voluntary act and an

obligatory act is an obligatory act whether performed in the

es.month of Ramadan or at other tim

.ذ ( طلن ػ٤ قذ٣ع أذ٢ ش٣شز سػ٢ هللا ػ

Similarly the reward of an obligatory act being equal to

performing seventy obligatory acts is open to discussion

since a good deed carries ten times to seven hundred times

r done during the month of Ramadan or the reward whethe

outside of it. The only exception to this is the act of fasting

whose reward is great and without any limits as mentioned

the Hadith Qudsi reported by Abu Huraira, may Allah be

Imam Bukhari pleased with him and agreed upon by both

and Imam Muslim. The hadith mentions Allah as saying

that every act of the son of Adam is for him except the

fasting because it is for me and I will give a reward for it.s

We should avoid the weak ahadith and confirm their status

before mentioning them. We should choose the authentic

ahadith mentioning the virtues of the month of Ramadan.

May Allah grant all of us to do this and accept our fasting,

night prayers and all good deeds.

And Allah knows best.

All praise belongs to Allah the Lord of the Worlds. And

praise and greetings to the Messenger sent as mercy to all

the worlds, our Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) and on his

family, companions and those who follow his guidance

and act according to his ways to the end of the time.

The Holy Prophet (pbuh) said that Allah releases some

people from the hellfire every day and every night of

Ramadan, and every believer has a request that is granted

every day and every night.

And the Holy Prophet (pbuh) said that Allah releases

some people from the hell fire at the time of the breaking

of every fast

So whoever hears this hadith should try to find out the

means through which his neck will be released from the

hell fire especially in this blessed time when Allah‟s

mercy is all comprehensive. So O seeker of good come

forward. The devils are chained and the doors of the

Paradise have been opened. So seek great mercy of Allah

to whom belongs all the praise and all the favors come

from Him.

How many people were engaged in committing sins and

obedience to Allah after suffering from the humiliation of

disobedience? And how many became the kings in the

Hereafter after being in the grip of hell fire? Praise be to

you O Allah!

So O people of the sins take advantage of these blessed

days since there is no substitute for these. These days are

priceless. Whoever is released from the hell fire has won a

great reward. As the Holy Prophet (pbuh) told Abubakar,

The Holy Prophet (pbuh) has pointed out to us the actions

compiled twenty means. Please concentrate on them and

try to make them your daily routine. There is no

comparison for their benefits and magnitude since they

lead to the release from the hell fire.

1. Sincerity: A person who states that there is no deity

except Allah for the sake of Allah‟s pleasure, Allah will

prohibit the hell fire for him

The most sign of this is that a person is energetic in

obeying Allah and he likes that only Allah watches his

actions. Zhun Noon was asked as to when a person knows

that he is among those who worship Allah sincerely? He

said: “When a person makes a lot of effort in acts of

obedience and likes that people do not pay much regard to

him.”

So if you want to achieve this success then make a serious

effort and tie your belt. Show Allah something that will

achieve His pleasure. You will achieve your goal

depending upon how hard you work. Your effort will be

according to what goal.

2. Improving the prayers by joining the congregation with

the first takbeer

If a person offers prayers for forty days joining the

congregation with the first takbeer, for the sake of Allah

only, he achieves safety from two things: from the hell

fire and from hypocrisy.

This is a requirement of faith that you should be keen to

perform. These two hundred prayers are like two hundred

steps to the paradise. Is the commodity of Allah not

valuable enough that you show eagerness for it? The way

to achieve this is to reduce the burdens of this world for

this period of time. You must ask Allah with each prayer

that He allows you to perform the next prayer while

joining the congregation with the first takbeer.

Improving the prayers during day will lead to the

improvement of prayers at night and the opposite is also

true. This will happen with avoidance of sins, eagerness to

perform acts of obedience and performance of regular acts

of remembrance of Allah at specific times. Make this an

important part of your life and strive towards its

achievement. Ask help from Allah and do not feel

helpless. If you falter one day, then resume your schedule

and do not allow yourself to be bored. This is (a way to)

paradise. This is release from hell fire and safety from its

lowest level .

3. Punctuality in offering the Fajr and the Asr prayers:

The Holy Prophet (pbuh) said that whoever performs the

prayers before the sunrise and before the sunset will not

enter the hell fire.

This implies performing these prayers at their earliest

(prescribed) times and the offering of voluntary prayers

before the obligatory prayers.

The Holy Prophet (pbuh) said: The two prayers (before

the obligatory prayers) of Fajr are better than this world

and whatever is in it.

The Holy Prophet (pbuh) said: “May Allah have mercy on

a person who prayers four raka before the Asr prayers.”

You must make supplications and ask Allah for

forgiveness between the call to the prayer and the

beginning of the congregational prayer. It is hoped that

this will lead to concentration and humility during the

prayer. Consistency on this is a great means for achieving

steadfastness. These two prayers are of great importance.

Seek help in performing the Fajr prayers by sleeping

early, performing ablution before sleep, performing the

acts of remembrance before sleep and supplicating to

Allah that He grants you this great honor.

Seek help in performing the Asr prayers by eating on time

and arrange your affairs before it. Try as much as possible

to keep harmony with the faith during this time of the day.

4. Punctuality in performing four (voluntary) prayers

before and after the obligatory Dhur prayers.

The Holy Prophet (pbuh) said: “Allah will make the hell

fire forbidden on a person who guards the four (voluntary)

prayers before and after the obligatory prayers.”

This honor is especially for those who offer these

voluntary prayers. Some scholars consider these prayers

as highly emphasized due to their great reward.

If you find it difficult to offer these prayers then remind

yourself that their reward is “hell fire is forbidden.”

5. Crying from the fear of Allah:

The Holy Prophet (pbuh) said: “A person who cries from

the fear of Allah will not enter the hell fire until the milk

returns to the udder and the dust in the path of Allah (dust

raised from the marching of horses in battle) and the

smoke of hell fire will not both occupy the same nostril.”

So good news to you if one drop of tear from your eye

shed out of fear of Allah is accepted. The hearts are

cleaned of sins from the water flowing from the eyes. We

should cry a lot especially in the month of Ramadan when

listening to the recitation of the Holy Quran during the

Taraweeah prayers and Tahajjud. If a person comes to

Allah but only once in a year, even this will be a lot, said

Sufyan At Thawri

A person whose eyes become full of tears while

remembering Allah will be among the seven people whom

Allah will protect under His shade on a day when there

will be no shade except His shade.

Allah Holy Prophet (pbuh) said” “Nothing is dearer to

Allah than two drops and two footsteps. A drop of tear

shed out of fear of Allah, and a drop of blood shed in

Allah‟s path. As far as the footsteps are concerned, a

footstep in Allah‟s path and a footstep taken in performing

one of the obligatory acts.”

Khalid bin Maadan said that a drop of tear can extinguish

seas of fire. If it flows on the cheek, it will not see the hell

fire. When a person cries out of fear or Allah his other

body parts also participate in it. His name and his father‟s

name are written in the High Place that his heart is filled

with the remembrance of Allah.

6. Walking in Allah‟s path:

The Holy Prophet (pbuh) said that the two feet that are

covered with dust from walking in Allah‟s path are made

forbidden on the hell fire.

Seek the reward of footsteps in Allah‟s path such as

walking towards the mosque particularly for the Friday

prayers.

The Holy Prophet (pbuh):

If anyone makes (his wife) wash and he washes himself “

on Friday, goes out early (for Friday prayer), attends the

sermon from the beginning, walking, not riding, takes his

not seat near the imam, listens attentively, and does

indulge in idle talk, he will get the reward of a year's

”fasting and praying at night for every step he takes.

It is mentioned that this is the greatest hadith in the

context of reward of deeds.

Seek the reward of your footsteps in inviting people to

Allah, helping those in need, attending to the needs of

your brothers, visiting the sick, attending the funerals and

similar acts. It is hoped from Allah that He will release us

from the hell fire.

7. Leniency of character:

The Holy Prophet (pbuh) said: “Allah will make a person

forbidden to the hell fire who is soft, lenient and easy to

approach.”

The Holy Prophet (pbuh) was extremely soft. If his

companions talked about this world, he (pbuh) talked

about it as well. If they talked about the Hereafter, he

(pbuh) talked about it as well and similarly with other

issues such as food. Just as Allah described him:

“For the believers, full of pity, merciful.”

So be lenient in all your affairs with people. Meet with

them cheerfully. Greeting your brother with a smiling face

is part of charity. Be forbearing not angry. Be soft and

don‟t turn off people. Your speech should be pleasing and

your heart should be soft. If your brother is upset, deal

with him gently and not with roughness. Do not forget,

that this behavior leads to freedom from the hell fire.

8. Good upbringing of daughters and sisters:

The Holy Prophet (pbuh) said that if a person from my

community takes good care of three daughters or three

sisters, then they will be a source of protection from hell

fire for him.”

In another hadith the Holy Prophet (pbuh) said: “If a

person has three daughters and then he shows patience,

feeds them, gives them water to drink and provides proper

clothing for them from his effort, then they will be a

source of protection from hell fire for him on the Day of

Judgement.”

So work towards earning and spend on your children and

sisters and seek reward for the time and money spent on

their upbringing. But be sincere in doing this and do not

do this to show off in front of people. Pay attention to

their education, try to make them memorize the Holy

Quran and teach them the Islamic dress code. Emphasize

good qualities. If you do this well, then Allah will grant

you the promised reward.

Free others and be free:

The divine wisdom and policy is that the reward of an

action is similar to it. So if a person wants to be freed

(from hell fire) tomorrow, then he should put forwards

actions that will lead to his own freedom.

If a Muslim man The Holy Prophet (pbuh) said: “

the Exalted, will make emancipates a Muslim man, Allah,

every bone of his protection for every bone of his

emancipator from Hell; and if a Muslim woman

emancipates a Muslim woman, Allah will make every

bone of hers protection for every bone of her emancipator

rection.”from Hell on the Day of Resur

If freeing of slaves is not feasible in our times, even then

the favor of Allah remains uninterrupted. So a person

should continue to do deeds that carry the reward of

freeing of slaves. These offerings, if accepted, will free

ire him from the hell f

9. Sitting while engaged in the remembrance of Allah

after the Fajr prayers till the sunrise, and after the Asr

prayers till the sunset. This consists of saying Subhan

Allah, alhamdolillah, Allaho akbar and La ilaha ill Allah.

The Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) said: “That I sit

with people remembering Allah from the time of the

Morning prayer up until sunrise is dearer to me than

emancipating four of Isma‟il‟s progeny and for me to sit

with a group of people after the „Asr prayer, remembering

Allah – the Mighty and Majestic – until the Sun sets is

more beloved to me than freeing four slaves from the

children of Isma‟il.

Similar hadith is narrated by Imam Ahmad as well.

talking to anyone,

“laa ilaaha illallaahu wahdahu laa shareeka lahu, lahul

worshipped except Allaah alone having no partner,

sovereignty is His and all praise is for Him and He brings

life and He causes death and He has full power over

everything,]”

ten good deeds will be recorded for him, ten sins will be

eliminated from him, he will be upgraded ten degrees (in

reward), he will be rewarded for freeing a slave for each

word, he will be safeguarded from all kinds of harm all

that day, he will be guarded against shaytan and no sin can

overtake him on that day (and nullify his good deeds)

except associating others in worship with Allah.”

one hundred times before the sun rises and before it sets,

then this will be better than one hundred camels; and

whoever says Alhamdulillaah one hundred times before

the sun rises and before it sets, then this will be better than

one hundred horses upon which you carry (i.e. equipment

and people) in the Cause of Allaah The Almighty; and

whoever says Allaahu Akbar one hundred times before the

same or more than that."

Allah will release two thirds of his body from the hell fire

and if he states it three times, Allah will save him

completely from the hell fire.

time:

Umm Hani bint Abu Talib (radhiAllahu „anha) said:

“The Messenger of Allaah walked past me so I said:

„Indeed I have become old and weak‟ – or something

similar to this – then he ordered me with an action which I

should do while I am sitting. He (sallAllaahu „alayhi wa

sallam) said:

„Say Subhana Allaah one hundred times, indeed it is

equivalent to freeing one hundred slaves from the

offspring of Isma‟eel.

And say Alhamdulillaah one hundred times, it is the

equivalent to one hundred horses saddled with reins ready

to carry a person in the path of Allaah.

And say Allaahu akbar one hundred times, since it is the

equivalent to one hundred camels slaughtered for the sake

of Allaah.

And say La illaah ila Allaah one hundred times‟

Ibn Khalf (the narrator from Aasim) said: I think he said:

it fills what is between the heavens and the earth and on

that day no one will have an action raised except the one

who came with the like of it.‟”

reward as given for one hundred times will get the same

be able to do a better deed except the one nobody will

Narrated 'Amr bin Maimun: Whoever recites it (i.e., the

invocation in the above Hadith (412) ten times will be as

15. Making the Tawaf (going around the Kaaba seven

times) and offering two Raka‟ after it:

The Holy Prophet (pbuh) said: “Whoever went around the

Kaaba seven times and then prayed two Raka‟, it is as if

he had freed a slave.”

The Holy Prophet (pbuh) said: “Whoever went around the

House seven times, it will be counted for him as if he

freed a slaved. He does not put one foot down or lift the

other one except that Allah removes his mistakes and

writes down good deeds for him.”

The Holy Prophet (pbuh) said: “Whoever goes around the

house seven times without engaging in useless talk will

get the reward of freeing a slave.”

O Allah make us perform Hajj and Umra and do not

prevent us from visiting Your Sacred House. Make a

determination to perform Hajj and Umra. If you are not

able to achieve this through action, you can still achieve

this through intention.

The Holy Prophet (pbuh) said:

"Some people have remained behind us in Medina and we

never crossed a mountain path or a valley, but they were

with us (i.e. sharing the reward with us), as they have been

a (legal) excuse." held back by

So people achieved the reward of Jihad without actually

going on it. The intention of a person is better than his

action. So do not lose hope or say that this is not possible.

Allah‟s bounty is all encompassing.

16. Giving a loan:

You should give your brother something through which he

can earn his living or guide someone who is lost.

The Holy Prophet (pbuh) said: “whoever gave a leaf of

silver (money as loan), guided someone to the path or

gave someone milk to drink, will have the reward of

freeing a slave.”

If someone asks for a loan give it to him and do not show

miserliness, and hope that this will become a means of

being saved from the hell fire. Help a needy person earn

his living, give a sewing machine to a poor woman, help a

beggar or guide a person who is lost or blind to find his

way.

“Whoever protects The Holy Prophet (pbuh) said:

will protect Allah absence, his in honor of his brother the

him from the hell fire.”

Avoid sitting where people are backbiting others,

t your brother attacking their honor and saying things abou

what he would dislike. Even if you are just listening to

this you will still be committing a sin unless you voice

your disapproval of it. If you are afraid to speak, then

disapprove it in your heart. If you are able to stand up and

the discussion, it is mandatory to do so. interrupt

Imam Al Ghazzali said that it was not sufficient to tell

18. Throwing an arrow in Allah‟s path:

The Holy Prophet (pbuh) said: “Any Muslim who throws

an arrow in Allah‟s path, whether it reaches its target or

now, will have the reward of freeing a slave.”

This is for those who are obligated to fight. On the basis

of this report, the scholars emphasize the value of learning

archery and horse riding.

What if you are not in a position to fight physically?

Allah says: “strike against them herewith with a great

endeavor.” This implies striving with the Quran.

So throw an arrow in Allah‟s path by inviting people to

the religion. If one person is guided through your effort

then this would better than all the good things in this

world. A person who invites others to do good deeds is

like the one who performs them. Defend the book of Allah

by helping to propagate it. Defend the sunnah of the holy

Prophet (pbuh) by sponsoring the students of knowledge.

Help in propagating the books of Sunnah.

19. Making the following supplication repeatedly and in

plenty:

The Holy Prophet (pbuh) said: “A person does not ask

Allah for entry into the Paradise three times except that

the Paradise states that O Allah admit him into the

Paradise. And a person does not ask for Allah‟s protection

from the Hell fire except that it states O Allah protect him

from me.”

Sufyan At Thawri would wake from his sleep frightened

and say, “Fire ! Fire!” He would say that the remembrance

of Hell fire had prevented him from sleeping and desires.

He would make ablution and would say afterwards: “O

Allah you know what I want without me saying this, and I

do not want except the release of my neck from the Hell

fire.”

It is mandatory that you supplicate to Allah to release your

neck and present yourself before Allah in totality and

complete presence of heart with humbles and humility.

You should face the Kaaba while in a state of purity,

praise Allah the way He deserves to be praised, raise your

hands, asking for forgiveness and making plenty of

repentance using Allah‟s beautiful names.

Do this at six special times for acceptance of prayers that

are the last third of night, at the time of the Adaan, (the

call to prayers), between the Adaan and the start of

obligatory prayers, at the end of the obligatory prayers,

between the Imam coming to the pulpit on Friday till the

end of the Friday prayers, and the last part of Friday after

the Asr prayers (between Asr and the sunset).

Make the above mentioned supplication repeatedly at

these special times and it is preferable to spend in charity

appropriate for this supplication. It is hoped that the

supplication will not rejected. This is mentioned by Ibn

Qayyum in his book Al Jawab-ul-Kafi.

20: Improving the act of fasting:

with Fasting is a shield": The Holy Prophet (pbuh) said

which a servant protects himself from the Fire.”

llah has made fasting a substitute for compensation in A

place of releasing slaves in the matters of remuneration

for unintentional murder, and compensation for Dhihar,

i.e., a person telling his wife that she is like his mother‟s

back to him.

Allah says:

“the blood-money must be paid unto his folk and (also) a

believing slave must be set free. And whoso hath not the

wherewithal must fast two consecutive months. A penance

from Allah. Allah is Knower, Wise.” (An Nisa 92)

“Those who put away their wives (by saying they are as

their mothers) and afterward would go back on that which

they have said, (the penalty) in that case (is) the freeing of

a slave before they touch one another. Unto this ye are

exhorted; and Allah is Informed of what ye do.

And he who findeth not (the wherewithal), let him fast for

two successive months before they touch one another.

(1سؼح ، كشؼح جلشطس جػ٤س لص ذحؿس جؿحز جحس .)

Since fasting is a substitute for freeing slaves, and freeing

slaves is a means of freedom from Hellfire, that it is hoped

that a lot of fasting will be a means of obtaining it.

The act of fasting should be improved upon by abstaining

from the forbidden acts, and avoiding overindulgence in

allowable things. This would be like the fasting of body

parts. The fasting of heart requires avoiding everything

that interferes with one‟s preoccupation with Allah. Do

not spend too much time in engagement with worldly

affairs during the month of Ramadan since it provides

with an invaluable opportunity to earn Paradise and

salvation from Hell fire.

21: Providing food for the poor.

Allah prescribed feeding of poor as one of the means of

compensation for dhihar.

“and for him who is unable to do so (the penance is) the

feeding of sixty needy ones.” Al Mujadila 4

Allah made the feeding and provision of clothing for the

poor as means of compensation for breaking oaths.

which is “Allah will not take you to task for that

unintentional in your oaths, but He will take you to task

for the oaths which ye swear in earnest. The expiation

thereof is the feeding of ten of the needy with the average

of that wherewith ye feed your own folk, or the clothing

iberation of a slave, and for him who of them, or the l

findeth not (the wherewithal to do so) then a three days'

fast. This is the expiation of your oaths when ye have

sworn; and keep your oaths. Thus Allah expoundeth unto

ks.” Al you His revelations in order that ye may give than

the creatures that so and so is among those who have been

freed from Hell fire.”

Feeding the poor and the needy is a great act of excellence

That kind of person will be counted among the most

virtuous of Allah‟s servants.

The Holy Prophet (pbuh) said: “The best among you are

those who provide food.”

It is sufficient (as a reward) that Allah will give him a

reward reserved for the Day of Judgement.

In a divine hadith Allah says: “O son of Adam I asked you

for food but you did not feed Me.”

The servant will say: “O Lord how could I feed you while

You are the Lord of the Worlds?”

Allah will say: “Did you not know that such and such

servant of mine asked you for food but you did not feed

him? Did you now know that if you had fed him, you

would have found that (the ward of it) with me?”
