Worshipping all year round

Businesses thrive in the holidays but they are still open all year round, as they need to earn a living.
Muslims thrive in Ramadan but they still worship all year round, as they need to earn Jannah.

Shaykh Dawood Seedat

Meaning of I’tikaf

“The original meaning of i’tikāf was to devote oneself and focus oneself on something to the exclusion of everything else. Ramaḍān is a form of iʿtikāf for the entire month.

We should treat the whole of ramadan as a spiritual retreat where we devote ourselves to, and focus on, the ibaadah of Allah to the exclusion of everything else.”
