Ramadhan-The Holy Month is divided into 3 Stages [Ashra’s]

 

What is Ramadan, the Holy Month of Muslims?

Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar. Muslims believe that Allah revealed the Quran to his Messenger Muhammad during this month. Ramadan is a time of self-reflection and self-control. Muslims fast from dawn to dusk for 30 days each year, except for pregnant women, nursing mothers, and young children.

Muslims believe that fasting during Ramadan is one of the five pillars of Islam. The other four are: professing faith in Allah and Muhammad as his Messenger, offering Namaz five times a day, giving alms to the deserving people, and performing a pilgrimage once in their lifetime if they can do so.

Muslims fasting during Ramadan often breaks their fast with a meal on evenings called iftar. Typical foods include dates.

 


Three Ashra's of Ramadan?

The three Ashras of Ramadan are the periods during which Muslims are encouraged to fast. These are the days before the start of fasting, the days of fasting, and the days after fasting. Fasting is one of the five pillars of Islam and is one of the most important acts a Muslim can do.

 


What is the First Ashra in Ramadan?

"The first 'Ashra of Mercy and Blessings' that marks the beginning of Ramadan bears ten days." The initial ten days of Ramadan are the days of grace and compassion. Every Muslim should seek the mercy of Almighty Allah during these days. Reading the Quran is also essential, and one should pray and make other supplications as often as possible in front of Allah. All three Ashras offer different methods of earning rewards before Ramadan ends.

 

What Does the Second Ashra in Ramadan Mean, and What Are Some Examples of this Ashra?

The second Ashra of Ramadan is known as forgiveness of sins and starts ten days after the first day of Ramadan and includes the 18th day. It is a time for forgiveness. The Dua individuals read during this period are: 

"I ask forgiveness of my sins from Allah, who is my Lord, and I turn towards Him." 

There are doors of forgiveness open this Ashra for anyone who has sinned, no matter how much they have done. You can ask for pardon from the Almighty; He is Omnipotent.

 

What is the Third and Final Ashra in Ramadan, and How Can You Tell When It Begins?

According to the moon, the third Ashra starts on 21st Ramadan and ends on 29th or 30th Ramadan. Third Ashra is known as Safety from the Hell (Nijat). Every Muslim must pray to be safe from Hellfire. The Last Ashra is very important and superior. This year, Ashura falls on the Night of Power, and many Muslims also observe seclusion and maximize their prayers.

 

Explained in Quran:

"We sent it (Quran) down on a blessed Night. Verily, We are ever warning. Therein (in that night) is decreed every matter of ordainment. Amran (i.e. a command or this Quran or His Decree of every matter) from Us. Verily, We are ever sending (the Messenger) (As) a Mercy from your Lord." 

 


Now that you know about all three Ashras of Ramadan, what should you do with this knowledge to improve your life for the better?
 

Ramadan is a time of spiritual reflection and self-discipline. It is an opportunity to cultivate patience, generosity, and spirituality. To improve your life, make the most of this opportunity by refraining from sinful activities, such as lying, gossiping, or backbiting. You should also try not to eat or drink anything between sunrise and sunset.

For Muslims, Ramadan is a time when they are required to fast from dawn until dusk every day for a month. It means that they will only be able to eat at night after the sun has set. For people who are not Muslim but want to participate in Ramadan, it can be good for them as it encourages self-control and discipline, which can sometimes lead to weight loss.
