Day 21: Seeking Laylat al-Qadr 

Ibn ʾUmar (Allāh be pleased with them) reported Allāh’s Messenger (SAW) as saying: Seek it (Laylat al-Qadr) in the last (ten nights). If one among you shows slackness and weakness (in the earlier part of Ramaḍān), it should not be allowed to prevail upon him in the last week. (Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 1165e).

Day 18: Charity removes sins 

Muʾāḏh ibn Jabal narrated that the Prophet (ﷺ) said, “Charity extinguishes sins like water extinguishes fire” (Tirmiḏhī 2616).

Day 15: Building consistency  

It was narrated from Ibn ʾUmar that the Prophet (SAW) said: “O Allāh, bless my nation in their early mornings.” (Sunan Ibn Maja 2239).

Day 14: Communicating with Allah (SWT) through supplication

“If My servants ask you about Me, I am near. I respond to those who call Me, so let them respond to Me, and believe in Me, so that they may be guided.” (Quran 2:186).

Day 13: Gratitude increases blessings 

“Remember that He promised, “If you are thankful, I will give you more, but if you are thankless, My punishment is terrible indeed.”” (Quran. 14:7).

“Call to the way of your Lord with wisdom and good teaching…” (Quran 16:125).

Day 11: Repentance and Allah’s (SWT) mercy

“Say, ‘[God says], My servants who have harmed yourselves by your own excess, do not despair of God’s mercy. God forgives all sins…” (Quran 39:53).

Day 10: Connecting to Allah (SWT) through prayer:

Umm Ḥabiba (the wife of the Prophet) reported Allah’s (SWT) Messenger (SAW) assaying: “A house will be built in Paradise, for anyone who prays in a day and a night twelve rakat…” (Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 728).

Day 9: Building a relationship with Allah (SWT):

“Those who remember God standing, sitting, and lying down, who reflect on the creation of the heavens and earth…” (Quran. 3:191).

Day 8: Engaging with the Quran 

“This is the Scripture in which there is no doubt, containing guidance for those who are mindful of God”. (Quran. 2:2).

Day 7: Building a Ramadan plan with small but consistent deeds 

Narrated ʾĀ’isha: Allāh’s Messenger (SAW) said, “…the most beloved deed to Allāh is the most regular and constant even if it were little.” (Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 6464).

Day 6: Worshipping Allah (SWT) through family, developing bonds 

ʾAbd Allāh Ibn ʾUmar reported: The Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ), said, “Every one of you is a shepherd and is responsible for his flock… No doubt, every one of you is a shepherd and is responsible for his flock.”(Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 7138; Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 1829).

Day 5: Remembering Allah (SWT)

Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet (SAW) said, “Allah says: ‘I am just as My slave thinks I am, and I am with him if He remembers Me…’” (Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī7405)

Day 4: Importance of suḥur and eating healthy 

Narrated Anas bin Malik: The Prophet (SAW) said, “Eat suḥur as there is a blessing in it.” (Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 1923).

Day 3: Fasting for Allah (SWT)

Narrated Abū Hurayra: The Prophet (SAW) said, “Allāh said: The Fast is for Me and I will give the reward for it, as he leaves his sexual desire, food and drink for My sake…” (Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 7492; Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 5927).

Day 2: A golden opportunity to let your soul flourish

Day 1: Attaining Taqwa: Mindfulness and God-Consciousness
“You who believe, fasting is prescribed for you, as it was prescribed for those before you, so that you may be mindful of God.” (Quran. 2:183).
