Khalas ! We have entered the last ten days of Ramadan. Ramadan, our honourable guest will soon depart but we still have to strive to do good acts of worship. Also, the treasure we have been seeking all year round lurks about within the last ten days.
Lailat ul Qadr! will we ''catch'' it ? how will we know?
Really, it does not matter if one knows one has ''caught'' Lailat ul Qadr or not. What is important, is to be steadfast and to carry on as we have started, or if we were a bit laxed at the beginning of Ramadan (not recommended but it can happen for various reasons), we have to catch up on all some neglected acts of worship, like reading the Quran, extra duas, night prayer ....
