- The "Night of Decree" (Laylat al-Qadr), which is better than a thousand months, is found within this month. If observed, this night, which is better than a thousand years of voluntary worship, is also in this blessed month.
- Fasting, which is one of the five pillars of Islam and purifies believers from evil deeds, is observed in this month.
- In the month of Ramadan, the gates of heaven are opened, the gates of hell are closed, and the devils are chained. Indeed, our beloved Prophet informs us of this as follows: "When the month of Ramadan begins, the gates of heaven are opened, the gates of hell are closed, and the devils are chained."
Prophet Muhammad addressed his companions when the month of Ramadan began, emphasizing the sanctity and virtues of Ramadan as follows:
"O people! A great and blessed month has come upon you, in which there is a night better than a thousand months.''
''Allah has made fasting in this month obligatory and performing night prayers voluntary.''
''Whoever performs a mandatory act in this month will receive the reward of seventy mandatory acts in other months. It is a month of patience, and the reward for patience is Paradise. It is a month of mutual assistance, in which the sustenance of a believer is increased.''
''Whoever provides iftar (the meal to break the fast) to a fasting person in this month will have his sins forgiven and be saved from Hell.''
''Additionally, he will receive a reward equal to the fasting person's reward, without the fasting person's reward being diminished. It is a month whose beginning is mercy, middle is forgiveness, and end is freedom from Hellfire."
