ramadan 30 day challenge

introducing the ramadan 30 day challenge!

I made this challenge in the hopes of catering to as many people as I can - so, regardless of anyone's home situation, health, money, whether or not you live near a mosque or a community etc, I think it is somewhat do-able or adaptable for all! you can access anything you need for this (verses/surahs from the Qur'an for eg) online. I also know that for some people (depending on countries etc), ramadan is either 29 or 30 days, so it's fine to finish on the 29th day if necessary.

if you miss a couple days as well (or end up seeing this post halfway through ramadan), just pick up from whatever day of ramadan it is!

it starts off easy and gets harder as you go along! i'm also going to be doing this ramadan challenge and posting my own updates on here, Insha’Allah! if you do this too, please do tag me because I would love to see how people are getting on! ♡ here it is:

recite surah ikhlas 3 times

recite durood sharif 3 times

read Qur'an after asr

recite the 3 Quls (last 3 surahs of the Qur'an) in the evening/before sleeping today

listen to an islamic podcast

write down 5 things you are grateful to Allah for on paper or phone notes app

istighfar 100 times

read all of surah mulk before bed

wake up for tahajjud and pray (at least) 2 rakaats

learn 5 names/attributes of Allah سُبْحَٰنَهُۥ وَتَعَٰلَىٰ

do something nice for somebody else - can even be very small and will still be rewarded for it

wear your favourite abaya/thobe/modest clothing for every salah today. look your best for Allah سُبْحَٰنَهُۥ وَتَعَٰلَىٰ in your prayer like you would to go to a special event

give some (charity) sadaqah (create a sadaqah jar/box!)

read the last 2 verses of surah baqarah before sleeping

make a du'a for your friends and family - name them and pray for something specific for each of them

read all of surah Ya Sin after fajr

pray 2 nafl rakaats (voluntary prayer) today after the 2 sunnah rakaats of zuhr

no backbiting/gossiping about anyone at all and 2 nafl rakaats (voluntary prayer) if you do

pick a surah from the Qur'an and read the commentary for each verse

memorise the dua to recite on laylatul qadr اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ عَفُوٌّ تُحِبُّ الْعَفْوَ فَاعْفُ عَنِّي Allahumma innaka 'Afuwwun, tuhibbul 'afwa, fa'fu 'anni "O Allah, You are indeed Forgiving and love to forgive, so forgive me."

donate to a charity (for palestine!!). even the smallest amount will be beneficial + rewarded by Allah

recite ayatul kursi after each 5 fard (obligatory) salah

pray all the 12 sunnah today: 2 rakaats before Fajr; 4 rakaats before zuhr and two rakaats after; 2 rakaats after Maghrib; and 2 rakaats after Ishaa

pray (at least) 2 rakaats of taraweeh (either at the mosque or at home by yourself/with family!)

pray 2 rakaats of duha (optional) prayer - it is between 15 minutes after sunrise until zuhr time. (not after zuhr!!)

recite subhanallahi wabihamdi, subhanallahil adheem 100 times - (Glory be to Allah and all praise is due to Him, glory be to Allah, the Great)

be extra modest today (tailored to you. wear hijab outside if you don't, or wear your loosest outfit or lower your gaze completely (including lowering it on social media) today etc. whatever being extra modest is for you, do that today).

pray on time, no procrastination or delays. check what local time each prayer is for you and pray then (unless you're praying at the mosque!)

istighfar x1000 times

pray some of the nawafil ON TOP OF all the sunnah prayers that accompany the 5 obligatory prayers: - 2 rakaats of duha prayer - 2 rakaats after the 2 sunnah rakaats of zuhr - 4 rakaats before asr - 2 rakaats after the 2 sunnah rakaats of maghrib - 2 rakaats after the 2 sunnah rakaats of ishaa (extra challenge: wake up for tahajjud too)

level extreme: if you want an extra extra challenge, you can continue doing each one every day as you go along. so day 1 would be recite surah ikhlas 3 times and day 2 would be recite surah ikhlas and durood sharif 3 times, day 3 would be recite surah ikhlas and durood sharif 3 times and read Qur'an after asr... and you get the gist. if you do this, good luck on day 30 when you have 30 things to do lol

note: giving sadaqah (charity) can be adapted if donating money is a struggle - for eg, doing dhikr on behalf of somebody else can count as sadaqah. click here for more info on this.

may Allah make this challenge easy for whoever intends to participate and let the deeds indeed be multiplied by 100 this ramadan and forgive us for our shortcomings, Ameen ♡

March 25, 2023 - Saturday | Ramadan Challenge 🌙 3/30

Love saturdays love the pleasant surprise of not setting an alarm and still waking up at a good time, love not having work or internship, love gloomy rainy days 🕯

📸 occupational hazard, propagating plants (an attempt) + my recent cloud art is now my wallpaper ☁️

What type of worship comes the easiest to you? I think I’d say dhikr. Both in the literal sense like tasbih/tahmid/takbir + morning duas etc but also dhikr in the sense of the meaning of the word like the remembrance of Allah. Maybe cuz I like drawing or because I’m a science nerd but I’m always notice and am awed by the beauty and intricacies of the creation of Allah. Like that verse from Surah Ale-Imran is so important to me: ‘Verily in the alternation of the day and night there are signs for people of understanding’ I’d like to think I’m one of those people 🤧

23 March 2024, Saturday

Miraculously feeling a lot less blue and more of other colors today, alhamdulillah! Also, I’m forever a take photos of sunset girl.

Day 13: What aspects of the qur'anic science have you explored, and how did that go? (e.g tafsir, translation, memorization, tajweed, recitation)

I use a Quran with word by word translation as well as full ayah translations and it’s a game changer. As someone that doesn’t know Quranic arabic it’s sooo nice to actually understand what you’re reciting in real time. When I was little I memorized the shorter surahs of chapter 30 and though it’s been a personal goal recently to memorize more, I just haven’t been able to make it a priority (sadly). I definitely ain’t giving up though, sooner or later in sha Allah I wish to memorize chapter 30 entirely.

[ruangsyindi]

Dari semua manusia yang ada di muka bumi ini, pasti tidak akan ada yang suka keburukan dirinya dibicarakan oleh orang lain. Jadi bahan pembicaraan orang. Seburuk apa pun diri, pasti tetap tidak terima kalau orang lain membicarakan kita. Sekali pun apa yang orang lain bicarakan itu adalah fakta. Perasaan sedih dan marah pasti ada dalam hati.

Tapi dari semua manusia yang ada di muka bumi ini, pasti ada banyak orang yang suka membicarakan keburukan orang lain. Bukan keburukannya sendiri, loh. Mana ada yang mau mengumbar-umbar keburukan sendiri. Bahkan meski keburukan itu ada dalam diri, banyak yang tidak sadar dan peka dengan keburukannya sendiri. Tapi kalau keburukan orang lain, jadi orang paling antusias untuk membahasnya. Selamanya kita memang hanya akan sibuk menceritakan kebaikan diri sendiri, ketimbang keburukan diri sendiri.

Menulis ini, saya pun sembari mengingat-ngingat, apa iya saya juga adalah orang yang seperti itu. Senang membicarakan keburukan orang, tapi tidak mau kalau orang lain membicarakan keburukan saya. Jangan sampai diam-diam tanpa menyadari saya juga termasuk dalam kelompok orang yang demikian. Atas semua sikap yang pernah ada, semoga Allah mengampuni dan menjauhkan.

----

Membahas tentang kebiasaan membicarakan orang lain, saya juga jadi teringat dengan perkataan salah satu teman saya sewaktu masih kuliah di Yogyakarta. Waktu itu saya bercerita kepadanya mengenai ibu kos saya yang sering sekali membicarakan penghuni kosan yang lain jika kami sedang duduk-duduk santai bersama. Segala macam informasi bisa kami dengar darinya tentang sikap dan kebiasaan anak-anak di kosan. Terus teman saya mengingatkan bahwa orang yang dengan mudah membicarakan keburukan orang lain di depan kita, pasti suatu saat nanti dia akan dengan mudahnya juga membicarakan keburukan kita di depan orang lain.

Beberapa tahun setelahnya, ketika saya berada di lingkungan kerja, saya semakin banyak bertemu dengan orang-orang yang seperti itu. Silih berganti saling membicarakan di belakang orang-orang yang bersangkutan. Begitu antusias membicarakan orang, tapi tidak tahu kalau orang lain juga begitu antusias membicarakannya.

Meski sejauh ini saya adalah orang yang paling takut kalau diri saya dan keluarga saya menjadi bahan pembicaraan orang, saya tidak akan pernah bisa merubah kebiasaan-kebiasaan orang yang memang suka membicarakan orang lain. Lagi-lagi kita memang tidak akan pernah bisa menutup mulut semua orang tentang kita. Cukup tutup telinga kita, dan biarkan mereka saling bersahutan. Toh juga di sudut tempat kerja yang berbeda, ada orang lain yang juga sering membicarakan mereka. Tapi semoga orang lain itu tidak termasuk kita di dalamnya.

Selamanya, atas sikap dan prasangka buruk kita kepada orang seharusnya kita bisa menjaganya sama seperti kita menjaga diri dari sikap dan prasangka buruk orang lain yang tidak baik kepada kita. Semoga Allah menjauhkan kita dari sikap demikian dan menjaga kita selalu dalam lingkungan orang-orang yang baik. Yang peling penting, Allah tidak akan pernah bosan menutupi aib kita baik di dunia maupun di akhirat nanti.

[chumpovodir]

weekly check-in to remind everyone i'm not dead

the combination of doing major renovation work while fasting during a particularly bad heatwave (average daily temps are 33-35°C, with humidity making it feel like 40+) has basically turned me into a beached starfish incapable of stringing a thought together, trying to conserve all energy until the tide rolls in

#the challenge of having spent the last decade or so with ramadan coinciding with the peak of monsoon season #i really want to chat with folks again but my days are very compressed to a short few hours where i feel functional #the good news is theres only a little over a week left to go

[ikiweekly]

Reading Quran Translation

So the first 30-day challenge that I'm doing for the next 30 days is reading the Quran translation.

A bit of my background: I was born in a Muslim family and in a Muslim-majority society. Growing up we, as muslims, were encouraged to read the whole Quran in its original language. We do learn some verses with the translation and interpretation, but only some, here and there. Reading the Quran in its original (Arabic) language is often considered more important and rewarding.

But this Ramadan I want to dedicate myself to read the whole translation. Perhaps it can help me build a deeper connection with the Quran. Each day I'm gonna post some points that I think might be interesting as snippets of what I read. The Quran consists of 30 Juz and I'm planning to read 1 Juz' each day. Hopefully I could give you an update everyday.

I am using a Quran with translation to Indonesian, because it is my native language, but I'll try my best to write the next posts in English.

Anyways, Ramadan Mubarak to all Muslims who are going through this holy month. I hope you're in a good health to get the most out of this Ramadan.

Ramadan Challenge

Prep day 1: One thing you're looking forward to the most this Ramadan

I am looking forward to Taraweeh at the masjid inshaAllah. Last year, I was not able to go to the masjid often for taraweeh because of where I went to school and I realize now that it took quite the toll on me feeling disconnected from my community during Ramadan. I pray that this year's taraweeh are a balm to our hearts, Ameen!

ramadan prep 8/mar/24

My tongue is divided into two into heavy accent bits of confusion into miracles and accidents saying things that hurt the heart drowning in a language that lives, jumps, translates. ― from My Tongue is Divided into Two by Quique Aviles

i did indeed use a pink prayer rug for my background (someone in the community gave it away and we took it) and those two perfume roll-ons i got from Morocco last summer where we stayed with our extended family.

pls forgive my terrible arabic handwriting pls

doing so much (mentally) better today.

finally found use for a notebook ive been too afraid to use!! i've had it for around four years and each time i tried to use it id mess up the first page then leave it alone. but this time i have a plan, ill be using it to record all the dua's and beneficial words i want to learn, sort of like a common place book.

looking for dark academia/bookblr/studyblr accounts run by muslims to follow pls interact if you'd like us to follow each other xx

I like to prepare meals for myself when I'm alone. With a little effort, I can make ordinary food taste less ordinary. I guess “romanticizing” is exactly that 🫠 This was my sahoor plate. Just now I started fasting. May Allah accept our fast. Happy Ramadan to all Muslims. ✨

[ruangsyindi]

Salah satu hal yang harus terus kita asah dalam diri adalah kemampuan untuk tidak mudah menjudge seseorang atas apapun yang mereka lakukan sebelum kita benar-benar tahu apa alasannya. Bisa saja ada hal-hal yang menjadi penyebab mereka bisa melakukan itu, yang kalau kita berada di posisi mereka berkemungkinan untuk melakukannya juga.

Kita musti berusaha untuk terus mengasah pisau kepekaan dan pemahaman terhadap orang lain, terutama paham pada kondisi mental masing-masing orang yang berbeda-beda.

Saat ada seorang ibu yang tiba-tiba jadi pemarah, mudah emosional, suka ngomel-ngomel pada anaknya. Bisa jadi hal itu dikarenakan adanya masalah yang dialami olehnya, mental yang sedang tidak baik-baik saja, berbagai tekanan dan perasaan yang memenuhi sesak di dada. Dengan meluapkannya melalui kemarahan, mungkin adalah cara yang saat itu bisa membuat lega. Berbagai emosi yang meletup-letup, ditambah kata-kata dengan nada tinggi. Begitu menjengkelkan dan miris jika didengar.

Tapi tidak seharusnya kita yang menyaksikan hal tersebut terburu-buru mengambil kesimpulan bahwa ibu itu jahat, keterlaluan, atau berbagai anggapan berbentuk penghakiman lainnya. Dia memang salah dan itu fakta. Memaklumi kesalahan itu juga tidak tepat. Tapi tetap saja tidak boleh menghakiminya tanpa berusaha untuk memahami keadaannya.

Berusaha untuk memahami keadaan juga bukan berarti mencari-cari tahu penyebab dan alasan atas perbuatan seseorang. Apalagi sampai kepo dengan apa yang terjadi kepada orang tersebut. Karena tidak semua orang dengan terbuka mengumbar-ngumbar masalah yang dialami, meski pada orang terdekat. Jadi porsi kita cukup dengan menjaga diri untuk tidak mudah menilai dan menghakimi seseorang atas semua perbuatan yang dilakukan. Jika hal tersebut salah, maka bagian kita adalah cukup menasehati, mengingatkan dan memberi saran jika diperlukan dengan sebaik-baiknya cara. Tidak lebih dari itu dengan segala prasangka kita.

Karena lagi-lagi jika berada di posisi orang tersebut, kita belum tentu mampu mengontrol emosi di tengah gejolak rasa yang meletup-letup. Meski bagi sebagian orang ada yang sudah terbiasa mengontrol dan memenejemen emosinya ke arah yang benar. Tapi tidak semua orang mampu untuk itu.

Jangan sampai semua perkataan kita yang seolah menilai dia begini atau begitu dengan cara yang salah malah menjadi tambahan beban pikiran dan penyebab emosinya yang semakin tidak karuan.

Semoga Allah mudahkan hati kita untuk tidak terburu-buru menilai dan menghakimi orang lain. Semoga Allah selalu melembutkan hati kita untuk berlaku baik pada semua orang.
