Allah in His book has mentioned both the issues of fasting, as well as mentioned the issue of the Islamic months of the year. Yet in one particular verse He mentions something from both issues. Look at the verse;
{The month of Ramadan in which was revealed the Quran, a guidance for mankind and clear proofs for the guidance and the criterion (between right and wrong). So whoever of you sights (the crescent on the first night of) the month (of Ramadan i.e. is present at his home), he must observe Saum (fasts) that month…}
[Al Baqarah (2): 185]
In this part of the verse, we see that Allah has mentioned two very important things that set the month of Ramadan apart from the other 11 months. Who from among you can tell us what these two things are?
What I want you to do is to take a good look and see if you can figure it out. If you can, simply write the answer on the appropriate section below.
Barak Allahu Feekum.
