spiritual awareness,
Ramadan is a good occasion to feeling of separation from the material word, in order to feel ourselves nearer to Allah(swt). Something like meditation or a higher state of the mind.
There are three famous ingredients for increasing spiritual awareness, they are:
Dhikr, fikr and himma. of dhikr and himma we know much, but the Prophet (AS) said of Fikr that one hour in the company of a gnostic has the same value as 70 years of Worship. I mention this because I feel that this is a largely missing ingredient in the Islam of modern people.
Qur'an mentions "Khaleelun minal akhireen" - "Few among the latter days"(Al-Waqi`ah 56:14)
May Allah (SWT) give us strength to behave and act just as He likes us to do and be pleased with us, and that should be the purpose of our lives. Rabbi zidnee ilma (O Lord, increase us in knowledge). Aameen.
