Ramzan ki Ahmiyat - Significance of Ramadan - Dr. Israr Ahmad

The name Ramadan originates from the intense heat that once prevailed in Arabia, causing hardship and even death. People perceived this time as one where purification occurred naturally. The month of Ramadan was thus associated with cleansing and seen as a period where accumulated impurities within the human body were naturally eliminated. The practice of fasting was ordained by God to facilitate this process. Another interpretation connects the name Ramadan to one of God’s names, signifying ‘the month of God.’ This is supported by a tradition of the Prophet Muhammad, who identified Sha’ban as his month and Ramadan as God’s month.
