you to think of Ramadan as one single day. One day, if Ramadan was a day, what would a day of Ramadan look like?

And I'm going to break this down from the perspective of how the Prophet ﷺ taught us to see time relative to how Allah sees it, not as how we see it.

And before I get to that breakdown in particular, I came across a powerful statement from an Imam Rejoji Rahimullah Allah Ta'ala

where he talks about the wish of those who have passed away. If those who have passed could speak, what would they be saying?

And this is especially pertinent when you're in that middle point of Ramadan and you could be dipping at this point, you could have gotten used to the first part,

you're not really geared up yet for the second part and you're kind of in that middle point.

What would the dead be saying right now?

Now, in general, we know that the wish of the deceased is that they could still do more good deeds.

And that's why we continue the good deeds on their behalf, those that were in the performance of those good deeds.

And the wish of those who disbelieved is that they would have believed and the wish of those who did not repent is that they would have repented.

But in general, think about how sweet a moment of tasbih, a moment of glorification,

to rock as is to those that have passed away and can no longer do it.

Especially when we have the narration of Azul Rahimullah that one tasbih, one subhan Allah and Ramadan is like a thousand subhan Allah's outside of Ramadan.

These precious moments that you have.

And he said, Rahimullah to Allah, if you were to say or if it was said to the people of the graves,

what is your wish?

They would wish for one more day of Ramadan.

Not the beginning, not the middle, not the end.

They would wish for one more day of Ramadan.

And the scholars explained that they would have seen the blessings of the rewards, the multiplication of the rewards,

for the days of Ramadan that they would have put forward, and the missed opportunities as we all will on the day of judgement.
