The YC Ramadan Planner 2023

Ramadan is just around the corner, and we are as excited as you are. After all, it's a month of immense mercy, bundles of blessing and ultimate forgiveness. As Muslims, we naturally want to make the most out of it and take in every ounce of goodness packed in this blessed month. But oftentimes, despite...

Connecting to the Quran in the last Ashra

Ramadan is the month for celebrating the Quran which was sent to guide and reform mankind. In this month, we read and hear the Quran more than any other time of the year. Yet why is that despite such exposure to Allah’s words, we don’t get that deeper connection with Allah? As soon as the new moon is sighted, the Quran is put on the shelf again.

The Opportunity of a Lifetime

"Make this Ramadan the time when we finally make an everlasting change. Our intention should be that we will continue the good work way after this one month. Make some promises to ourselves that this Ramadan we will finally make that change in our lives that we’ve been thinking about for years.

Get the Ramadan High!

Ramadan: A Bonanza for Muslims?

By Syeda Nyma Alam Allah in Qur'an says: "Ramadan is the month in which the Quran was revealed as a guide for humanity with clear proofs of guidance and the standard to distinguish between right and wrong” (Surah Al-Baqarah, 2:185) Ramadan during which the Quran was revealed, serves to be the best remedy to all our...

Ramadan and I: It’s complicated

By Juwayriyah Shabir I have a confession to make. Ramadan terrifies me. I shy away from acknowledging my guilty secret amid the tangible excitement in the lead up to the holy month. There is this peculiar nervous energy that matters the days before Ramadan. A palpable tension reverberates through the air. Is it the demons...

I’tikaf Mindset for Ramadan 2020

Ramadan has always been my favourite time of the year. It is the time when communities get together in worship and in celebrating the blessings of the month of Ramadan. I really love the communal aspect of Ramadan: going to Taraweeh with your entire family and catching up with friends at the mosque after the...

Ramadan Reflections 2019: Asking Allah (SWT)

By Haniya Hasan. As of tonight, the first 10 days of Ramadan have passed already and this kind of makes me wish that time stood still in Ramadan. I love this time of the year when everyone is engrossed in prayer and reflection; when the air is thick with the remembrance of Allah. In Ramadan,...

Ramadan Journaling: A Colourful Guide!

By Sara Ahmed. Realising that this may potentially be my last free Ramadan before I get caught up in the whirlwind of a medical house-job and other ‘adulting’ responsibilities, I’ve put in more effort than ever to plan it out. I’ve always been big on pretty stationery and planning gear but if you aren’t -...

Missing Ramadan? Worry not, the BEST 10 are here!

By Nadeem Ashraf It's been more than a month since the blissful time of reflection and prayer that is Ramadan has come to a swift end. You tried your very best to get rid of niggling addictions and minor sins. You woke up even before Fajr for Tahajjud and Suhoor. You paid attention to your Salah...
