If there is no transformation or change in our bad character & conduct, then the whole objective is defeated. Fasting alone is not the objective, but acquiring of Taqwa is the goal. The objective of this month is to bring alive the consciousness of Allah Ta\u2019ala & the Aakhirah, such that at the end of the month, we realise that everything is recorded and we ponder before every action, will this action be in my favour or against me on the Day of Qiyamah? We will be made to read our own Book of Deeds, it\u2019s our choice what we fill our book with. Fill it with those things that will bring us success and happiness. Time is moving, value every minute & make maximum use of our time. The one who uses his time properly in Ramadan, his entire year will be well used. We should be engaged in either Tilawah, Istighfaar, Kalima Tayyiba, Durood or any other Zikr, Salah, learning & teaching and other good deeds should be our activities in this month.
