1. Be Prepared for Ramadan The key to a productive Ramadan is to prepare for it well in advance. Allah subhanahu wa ta`ala (exalted is He) encouraged us to fast and do extra good deeds during the months of Rajab and Sha`baan as a means of preparing ourselves for Ramadan. Rajab and Sha`baan can be considered the months of sowing, while Ramadan the month of reaping. If you really want to have good harvest this Ramadan, plant your seeds in Rajab and Sha`baan. Take advantage of those months to train your body to wake up one hour before fajr (dawn prayer); to read more Qur’an during the day; to fast on the preferred days, such as Mondays and Thursdays; and to practice doing extra good deeds. By doing this, you will ease your way into Ramadan and performing those extra `ibadaat (acts of worship) during Ramadan will become very easy for you insha’Allah. If you haven’t prepared for this Ramadan, make the intention to do it next Ramadan.
