And he ﷺ said: “Whoever spend the nights of Ramadān in prayer out of faith and in the hope of reward, his previous sins will be forgiven.”
•Agreed upon•
I do not know of any specific way of welcoming Ramadān, but the Muslim should welcome it with joy and happiness and thanking Allāh for enabling him to reach Ramadān, for He has caused him to be among the living who compete in doing righteous deeds. Reaching Ramadān is a great blessing from Allāh.
Hence the Prophet ﷺ used to give his companions the glad tidings of the arrival of Ramadān and explain its virtues, and the great reward that Allāh has prepared for those who fast and who spend the night in prayer. It is prescribed for the Muslim to welcome this blessed month with sincere repentance and preparations to fast and pray qiyaam, with a sound intention and sincere resolve.

🔻What is recommended in Ramadān❓
________________________________________
It is desirable to recite the Qur’ān a lot in Ramadān, (and to spend time in) remembrance, (dhikr Allāh) and charity. It is a month of diligence in
worship and obedience, and it came in Al-Sahīhain, on the authority of Ibn Abbās, who said:
The Prophet (ﷺ) was the most generous of all the people, and he used to become more generous in Ramadān when Gabriel met him. Gabriel used to meet him every night during Ramadān to revise the Qur'ān with him. Allāh's Messenger (ﷺ) then used to be more generous than the fast wind.

*Note from Furrqat:
This hadîth was rejected by Ibn ‘Adî, al-Bayhaqî, al-Jawzaqânî, Ibn al-Qaysarânî, Ibn al-Jawzî, an-Nawawî, ibn al-Mulaqqin, ibn al-Qattân, ibn Kathîr, Ibn Hajr, as-Suyûti, ash-Shawkânî, Sulaymân al-‘Alwân, Abû ‘Alî al-Hasanî, ‘Abdullâh as-Sa’d, ‘Abdul ‘Azîz at-Tarîfî and others.

All of the ahādīth of congratulating for Ramaḍān are all weak: Nothing is
authentic concerning it
❌ 5. “There has come to you Ramaḍān, a blessed month, the fasting of which Allāh has obligated upon you. In it, the gates of Paradise are opened, the gates of Hell are closed, and the devils are chained up.
In it there is a night which is better than a thousand months; whoever is deprived of its goodness is indeed deprived.”
[ ☑️ The confirmed report: “When the month of Ramadan begins, the gates of mercy are opened, the gates of Jahannam are closed and the devils are chained up.”]
❌ 6. On the last day of Shaˋbān, the Messenger of Allāh صلى الله عليه وسلم addressed us and said: “O people! A great month is coming to you. A blessed month. In it, there is a night that is better than a thousand months. Allāh Has obligated its fasting and made it voluntary to pray its nights. Whoever draws nearer to Allāh by performing any of the voluntary good deeds in this month shall receive the same reward as there is for performing an obligatory deed at any other time. And whoever performs an obligatory deed in it shall receive the reward of performing seventy obligations at any other time. And it is the month of patience, and the reward for patience is Paradise. And it is the month of equality. And it is a month in which a believer’s provisions are increased. Whoever gives food to a fasting person to break his fast, it will be like he freed a slave and he will have his sins forgiven.” It was said: “O Messenger of Allāh, not all of us possess the means whereupon we can give a fasting person [provisions] to break his fast.” He said: “Allāh gives the same reward to the one who gives a fasting person [provisions] to break the fast, a sip of milk, a date, or a drink of water. And whoever feeds a person who was fasting until he is full, it will be a cause for his sins to be forgiven, and Allāh will give him a drink from my Ḥawḍ [cistern], after which he will not be thirsty until he enters Paradise. And he will have the same reward as him [i.e. the fasting person] without his reward being diminished at all. And it is a month; the beginning of which is mercy, the middle of which is forgiveness and the end of which is emancipation from the Fire. And whoever lessens the burden of his bondsmen in it [i.e. this month], Allāh will free him from the Fire.”
❌ 7. “Count the (the appearance of)the crescent of Sha’ban for Ramaḍān.”
[☑️ The confirmed report: “Do not precede the month of Ramaḍān by a day nor by two days.”]
