Be careful how you spend the last ten days of Ramadan. I say that because this is the time when advertisements for Eid increase, invitations begin coming, sales start to happen, etc. These last ten days shouldn’t be spent preparing for Eid, shopping for clothe & jewlery, etc. Rather than seek sales, seek Laylatul Qadr. This one layla, this one night is better than a thousand months. Subhan’Allaah. May Allaah make us of those whose seek it and spend it accordingly. Ameen.
“Verily! We have sent it (this Qur’aan) down in the night of Al-Qadr, And what will make you know what the night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is? The night of Al-Qadr (Decree) is better than a thousand months [i.e. worshipping Allaah in that night is better than worshipping Him a thousand months.] Therein descend the angels and the Rooh [Jibreel] by Allaah’s Permission with all Decrees, Peace! (All that night, there is Peace and Goodness from Allaah to His believing slaves) until the appearance of dawn.” [Al-Qadr (97)]
