Beautiful Ramadan
Allah (Azza wa jal) descend upon the earth. The
gates of the Heaven are also opened by which
the maidens of Heaven become aware that Ramadan has arrived in the
world, and so they pray for the people of the world. Further, it is also said
that no one is punished in his grave in Ramadan. It implies that the gates of
Hell are closed in Ramadan, due to which the heat of Hell does not reach the
graves of sinners and even unbelievers. Satan, along with his offspring, is
chained. If anyone commits sins in this month he does so due to the evil of his
Nafs, not because of Satan.’(Mirat-ul-Manajih, pp.
133, vol. 3)
As soon as Ramadan ends and Satan is released,
it seems as if a storm of sins has occurred. Too many sins are committed on Eid
day that even the cinemas that are not filled the whole year round become full
on Eid day. Fairs that are not seen all year round are held on Eid. It seems
Satan is extremely annoyed as a result of being held in captivity a whole month
and wants to take revenge within the day of Eid. All amusement parks fill with
men and immodest women, theatres are always packed out on Eid, new films and
dramas are released just for Eid, and hence countless Muslims become toys in
the hands of Satan. However, there are some fortunate Muslims who are not
heedless of Allah (Azza wa jal)

Why are sins committed despite Satan being in chains?
A renowned exegetist of the Quran Shaykh Mufti Amad Yar Khan (Radi allahu
ta'ala anhu) has
stated, ‘In Ramadan, the gates of the skies are opened, through
which special bounties of
Allah (Azza wa jal) descend upon the earth. The
gates of the Heaven are also opened by which
the maidens of Heaven become aware that Ramadan has arrived in the
world, and so they pray for the people of the world. Further, it is also said
that no one is punished in his grave in Ramadan. It implies that the gates of
Hell are closed in Ramadan, due to which the heat of Hell does not reach the
graves of sinners and even unbelievers. Satan, along with his offspring, is
chained. If anyone commits sins in this month he does so due to the evil of his
Nafs, not because of Satan.’(Mirat-ul-Manajih, pp.
133, vol. 3)

heedless of Allah (Azza wa jal)
and turn down the misleading invitation of Satan.
