O ye who believe! Fasting is prescribed for you as it was prescribed for those before you so that you may become pious.
The Holy Quran. al-Baqara [The Heifer]: 184.
Allah is the Light of the heavens and the Earth. The similitude of His light is as a niche, wherein is a lamp. The lamp is in a crystal globe. The globe is bright as it were a glittering star lamp lit from a blessed olive tree neither of the east nor of the west, whose oil would well-nigh glow forth even though fire touched it not. Light upon light! Allah guides to His light whosoever He wills. And Allah sets forth parables for people, and Allah knows all things completely.
Glowing forth from houses for which Allah ordained that they be exalted and that His name be commemorated in them. Glorify Him therein in the mornings and the evenings.
The Holy Quran. al-Nur [The Light]: 36, 37.
May this Holy month draw people nearer
to God and ease the journey to the Divine beloved. May it be a month that
brings peace to the world and to the Muslims in particular so that God in His
eternal Mercy may grace the Spirit of peace and the tranquillity of His love.
