Ramadan is the (month) in which was sent down the Qur'an as a guide to mankind also clear (Signs) for
guidance and judgment (between right and wrong). So everyone of you who is present (at his home) during
that month should spent it in fasting, but if anyone is ill, or on a journey, the prescribed period (should be
made up) by days later. Allah intends every facility for you He does not want to put you to difficulties. (He
wants you) to complete the prescribed period, and to glorify Him in that He has guided you; and perchance
ye shall be grateful.
Saum in Ramadan is one of the pillars of Islam. Saum means to fast, which is to not eat
or drink. Let’s find out more on the next page inshallah!

Copy the sentence explaining when we fast onto the scroll above in your best handwriting!
Sahur is a special meal eaten before the sun
rises late at night…like a very early breakfast!
The Prophet Muhammad has told us there is
a blessing in eating Suhur.
After the sun starts to rise at dawn, we cannot
eat or drink until the evening, so eating Suhur
will help our body to have energy inshallah!
What should you do if you forget you are fasting and Narrated Abu Hurairah: The Prophet
you eat or drink something? said: “If somebody eats or drinks
___________________________________________ forgetfully, then he should complete his
Saum (fast), for what he has eaten or
drank has been given to him by Allah.”
___________________________________________
Sahih al Bukhari The Book of As-Saum
Hadith # 1933
___________________________________________
Some things will ruin your fast,
so it is important to know what
they are so that you know not to
Back-biting, do them!

Abu Hurairah reported: The Messenger of Allah
_________________________________________
said: “When any one of you is observing
_________________________________________
Saum (fasting) on a day, he should neither
indulge in obscene language nor should he raise _________________________________________
the voice; and if anyone reviles him or tries to
quarrel with him, he should say: “I am observing What did the Prophet tell us to do if someone
fast” tries to be rude or argue with us?
Sahih al Bukhari & Muslim, Riyad-us-Saliheen hadith # 1240
_________________________________________
_
At the end of the day when the fast is over and
we can start to eat again, the Prophet
Muhammad advised us to break our fast
with dates or water.
If however we don’t have dates or water
available, then any food or drink can be used
instead.
At the time of breaking our fast, when we are about to eat, there
is a dua’a we can say, just as the Prophet Muhammad did.
The Prophet used to say when breaking his fast: “The thirst
is gone, and the veins are quenched, and the reward is assured-
if Allah wills”.
Sunan Abu Dawud, The book of Fasting, hadeeth # 2357
Can you read the Arabic dua’a above and its meaning inshallah?
During the night we can offer extra salaah and this is called Qiyam-ul-
Layl or Tahajjud, and in the month of Ramadan some people call it
Tarawih.
Qiyam means “Standing” and Qiyam-ul-Layl means “Standing at night”.
It is called Standing because long portions of Qur’an are recited during
the salaah.
