Make the month of Ramadan be the beginning of a new life, full of obedience and virtue; make it be the start of your maintenance of prayers in the Masjid; make a pledge now to never again abandon even a single Salah (prayer); forget the notion that you cannot wake up and pray Fajr Salah (morning prayer) with the congregation; purify your hearts with the recitation of the Quran; shed tears over the evil you have committed in the past, perhaps Allah may forgive you and transform your sins into reward; remember that the Mercy of Allah is greater than the sins of anybody; end sinning and pay no attention to the criticism that you would draw by doing so; never underestimate any sin - stop shaving your beards, shun cigarettes and intoxicants and adhere to the Hijab.

　　If you are one who used to consume intoxicants, then shun them immediately, because they are prohibited. If you had dealings that involved Riba (interest or usury) then cease doing so. If you were accustomed to taking bribes, then content yourselves with that which is lawfully attained, because it is better for you and your children; purify your wealth from all ill-gotten money and be assured that by doing so, Allah will replace that which you dispose of from the ill-gotten money with something blessed and better. If you used to prevent others from doing virtuous deeds, then repent to Allah, and do not continue being a human devil. Train yourselves during this month to compete in virtue because this is a characteristic of the Prophets, may Allah exalt their mention, about whom Allah Says (what means): {...Indeed they used to hasten to good deeds and supplicate Us in hope and fear, and they were to Us humbly submissive} [Quran 21: 90]

　　Pay no attention to those who wish that you remain disobedient and far from the guidance of Allah; usually, fornicators wish to see everyone around them doing the same, and those who deal in Riba wish that all others partake in the same types of financial transactions as theirs, because, by this they want to justify themselves for their evil deeds. so beware, lest they prevent you from repentance and deprive you from goodness, because Allah likes that you repent while those who follow their desires like that you become inclined towards them and their actions. Some people wish that everyone around them will become supporters and assist them in their evil; listen to what Allah Says (which means): {Allah wants to accept your repentance, but those who follow their passions want you to digress [into] a great deviation. And Allah wants to lighten for your [your difficulties]; and mankind was created weak} [Quran 4: 27-28]

　　O young men! O you who is deceived by his youth! Be merciful to yourself; protect your honour and preserve your religion. Stop wasting your life in disobedience to your Lord; do you not ever think about the Day on which Allah will question you about this youth and how you spent it? Why do you insist on excluding yourself from those whom Allah will shade under His throne on the Day when there will be no other shade but His? Why are you lagging behind in following and imitating your Prophet, sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam, and his companions who would rush towards virtue? This is an advice to you, and I hope you will follow it; repent now and adhere to the commandments of Allah and fulfil His rights upon you; be of those who never miss a prayer in the Masjid, because that is where success lies, and it is the way leading to Paradise and its rivers and maidens; open a new page in your life full of obedience and dutifulness towards your parents.

　　Dear sisters! Obey Allah and His messenger ; be obedient wives as long as your husbands do not order you to do an act of disobedience to Allah; help your husbands become obedient men and know that the first step in your true repentance is materialised in your adherence to the Hijab. Also, beware of walking in the streets adorned and never shake hands with other men excluded Mahram (a family member with whom marriage is prohibitted).

　　Many are those who were advised but never listened; they saw people passing them by, on their way towards success, but never joined the caravan; time began running out for them, but they insisted on remaining heedless, until their time came to an end; they then regretted what they did during their lives, but alas … it was already too late. Allah Says (what means): {...he says, "My Lord, if only You would delay me a brief term so I would give charity and be among the righteous." But never will Allah delay a soul when its time has come. And Allah is Acquainted with what you do} [Quran 63:10 - 11]

　　Imam Ibn Al-Qayyim said: “Whenever you see a man with a heart that has shunned the love of Allah and has ceased to prepare for His meeting, and has replaced that with loving others, and is content instead with the pleasures of this life, then know that such a heart is ruined; whenever you see that the eyes have become dry, then know that this resulted from the hardness of the hearts, and the furthest people from Allah are the hardhearted ones; whenever you see one who rejoices in being with other people more than being in isolation in supplication to Allah, then know that this is a useless heart and one that leads (its owner) to punishment.”
