Ramadan Fast(Daily Guide)By Prof. Sabitu Olagoke

Monday, May 3rd
The last 10 days of the Ramadan fast are regarded as the pathway to Janat or paradise. The period, for all Muslims, demands a sober reflection from all adherents on if they have been able to target the goal of the fear of God as expected of the almighty Allah for one to be wholesome with fruitful labor worthy of harvesting.
Let us, therefore, enter this last voyage in the Ramadan fats with the statement of the objective of the retreat or Itikaf(Holy Quran 18: 10)
''Behold the youths betook themselves to the Cafe: They said,'' Our Lord! Bestow on us mercy  from thyself and dispose of our affair for us in the right way !'' Ramadan Mubarak.

Be reminded that Allah hath made clear His signs to men in this month of Ramadan that we may learn self-restraint. For example, the Holy Quran 2: 187 talked about the limit set by Allah during Itikaf or retreat period that we must not approach or associate with our wives while we are in the retreat in the mosque. The use of vulgar language is equally prohibited. For example, in the Holy Quran 29: 45, we are admonished to recite what is sent of the book by inspiration to the Holy Prophet Muhammad, that is the Holy Quran and  ''establish regular Prayer: For example, For prayer must restrain from shameful and evil deeds; and remembrance of Allah is the greatest thing in life without a doubt. And Allah knows the deeds that you do(ever monitoring). Follow this strictly during the Itikaf period. Ramadan Mubarak.

Be reminded of the fact that the essence of your participation in the Ramadan fast is to reform you into a state of piety for you to be able to live exemplary lifestyles. Be reminded also,  God wants you to complete the prescribed period and to glorify Him, in that He has guided you: and perchance ye shall be grateful. (Holy Quran 2: 185). A complete assignment diligently and thoroughly done by every adherent shall be fully rewarded. Avoid games of deceit or unwarranted shortcut practices. Ramadan Mubarak.

Be reminded that fasting is for a  fixed number of days; but if any of you is ill or on a fatigue-driven journey, the prescribed number should be made up from this later. For those who can afford atonement for this is a Ransome, the feeding of one that is indigent, but that he will give more of his own free will,- it is better for him. However, the best option that is better for you is to observe the prescribed 29 or 30 days as an annual event. The Almighty Allah will make us hale and hearty to be able to observe the Ramadan fast as an act of Ibaadah. Ramadan Mubarak.

The glorious with joy that you are a Muslim and an active participant in the class sessions of the Ramadan fast period, be equally reminded that Allah intends every facility for you; He does not want to put you in difficulties. Surgical operations are not for the purpose of afflicting patients, but to relive and heal them.
In this wise, make use of the Ramadan period to arrest and tame the wildness of the evening times and judiciously use the Holy Quran as your guide for socio-spiritual maturation in body preservation from sins and soul purification from devilish thought processes. Avoid occultism, wizardry, witchcraft, and sorcery, but uphold the concept of holiness for Allah the Almighty God.
