A Special Ramadan Hack from Dr. Omar Suleiman
As the blessed month of Ramadan graces us with its presence, we are called to embrace its deep spiritual significance. This is a time for reflection, devotion, and seeking a deeper connection with the Creator. From all of us at Connect Labours, we wish you a Ramadan filled with peace, joy, and spiritual growth.
In his recent speech, Dr. Omar Suleiman a respected scholar whose insights are deeply aligned with the fundamentals of Ramadan, spoke of the way in which we are invited to listen to the real pull of our hearts in this sacred month of the Islamic calendar, demonstrating the way in which we are nourished by it. The fact that Ramadan is not merely a body fast,But its The Fact that it is a pilgrimage, an opportunity to purify our objectives and reunite us with our Lord is a powerful incentive.
Fasting is The Pilgrimage, of our intentions, Where Kaabah is the awarness that Allah is Seeing us.
This is the time to nourish our hearts with faith, patience, and sincerity, knowing that the fast is not merely abstention from food, but a deeper call to refine our character and intentions. When we fast, we silence the distractions and listen to the quiet whisper of our hearts. It is in this stillness that we hear the divine guidance, leading us to greater peace and spiritual growth.
The hack, based on Dr. Omar Suleiman:
-
Focus on spiritual growth:The core of Ramadan is deepening your connection with Allah through prayer, Quran recitation, and self-reflection.
-
Mindful eating:Plan nutritious meals for both Iftar and Suhoor to avoid overindulging.
-
Community engagement:Utilize Ramadan to strengthen ties with family and community by sharing meals and participating in collective prayers.
-
Self-discipline:Be conscious of your actions and speech, striving to improve your character throughout the month.
The current blessed month inspires us to pray with sincerity, fast with patience,
and reflect profoundly on the adventure of religious awakening. Perhaps you will come closer to inner harmony and deep connection with Allah each day of this Ramadan.
We pray that your fasts are accepted, your prayers answered, and your heart illuminated by the eternal light of faith. During this Ramadan, let that pull guide you towards the best version of yourself—toward divine closeness and spiritual fulfillment.

Invitation to Ponder This Ramadan
This Ramadan, let us take a moment to come closer to ourselves and, in doing so, recognize the majestic power of Allah and the essence (zaat) of Allah to the best of our abilities—if He permits.
T H I N K.
Is “thinking” merely a thing?
It is a wondrous creation of Allah.
Think about your eyes—who created your vision?
Think about your brain—who created it to process and guide?
Think about your heart—who created it to beat with life?
Think about the thoughts in your mind—who made them possible?
Why does the brain live while the heart ceases when we pass away?
Is the heart truly the essence of who we are?
This Ramadan, let’s reflect on the One Who created us, Who gave us life, and Who is the source of all that we are. May we understand His majesty and essence more deeply in every moment of prayer, fasting, and contemplation.
Let us think.
