Ramadan Reminders (5): Fasting and Upholding Excellence of Character

Ramadan Reminder (Lesson 5):  Fasting & Upholding Excellence of Character 

When fasting, it is easy to get annoyed, irritated, or angry--or, at least, to fall short of what good character entails. This reminder looks at making our fasting a means of drawing closer to Allah through upholding the Prophetic excellence of character. Five key aspects of good character are explained, so that we can strive to become of the best of believers--for the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) said, "The believers most perfect in faith are those best in character." [Tirmidhi]
