Make sure to be a winner this Ramadan

And from the many virtues and acts of obedience within this month, is that this is the month in which all the creation get its provision and all affairs are decreed for the whole year as the Almighty say about Laylatul Qadr (The Night of Decree) :

“We sent it (this Quran) down on a blessed night [(i.e. night of Qadr, Surah No: 97) in the month of Ramadan,, the 9th month of the Islamic calendar]. Verily, We are ever warning [mankind that Our Torment will reach those who disbelieve in Our Oneness of Lordship and in Our Oneness of worship]. Therein (that night) is decreed every matter of ordainments. (Surah Ad Dukhan, 44:3-4)

So for that reason, the righteous people are very careful to be upon righteousness, obedience and supplications during this month and even more in Laylatul Qadar (The Night of Decree). For verily, whoever succeeds and purifies in this month Allah will  protect him throughout the whole year, and whoever loses this month will find him among the losers in his whole year except the one who repents to Allah.
