You will be overwhelmed with joy when you are honoured, safeguarded (from the punishment) and entered into eternal bliss due to you opposing the people in order to not oppose Allah. Await for that day by enduring patiently the harms of society.
Aisha reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Whoever seeks the pleasure of Allah by the displeasure of people, Allah will suffice him against the people. Whoever seeks the pleasure of people by the displeasure of Allah, Allah will leave him to the patronage of the people.”

Ibn al-Qayyim رحمه الله said:
“(By fasting) one narrows the passageways of Shayṭān within the servant (of Allāh), by narrowing the passageways of food and drink. As well, it restrains the force of the limbs from giving way to its dominating nature of that which is harmful to it in this world and the hereafter.
And, (fasting) subdues every limb and might of the soul from (following its) whims, and harnesses it by its bridle.
For, surely (the fast) is the bridle of the muttaqūn [the righteous, those having taqwá] and the shield of the warriors [a shield between them and the Hell-fire].”
[Zaad al-Maʿad | 2/28-29]

Ramadan is Here—Will this one be Different?
Every year we promise “This Ramadan, I’ll change.” “This time, I’ll do better.” But the reality?
The first few days we’re motivated, and then…?
The same excuses, the same laziness, the same distractions–work, exams, social media. And before we know it, Ramadan is over, and we’re left with nothing but regret.
Actually we are the problem. We waste time scrolling, overstuffing at iftar, sleeping through Fajr, skipping Qur’an, and then crying on the last night, hoping Laylatul Qadr will fix everything. But what if this is our last Ramadan? What if there’s no ‘next year’ to make up for this one?
What Needs to Change—Right Now:
• Cut the crap. Uninstall the distractions. Block the time-wasters. If it doesn’t bring you closer to Allah, it’s not worth it.
• Plan your ibadah like your life depends on it. Because guess what? It does. Make your Qur’an and salah non-negotiable. increase the acts of worship as much as you can.
• No more ‘I’ll do it later.’ Later is a lie. Later is the shaytan’s trap. Do it now—before you run out of chances.
• Ask yourself: If I don’t make it to Eid, will this Ramadan be enough for me to get jannah?
If we enter this Ramadan the same way we did last year, we’ll leave it the same way too—unchanged. And that’s a terrifying thought. This is your wake-up call. Don’t waste it.

Bad breath during Fasting:
Some people mistakenly think that the bad breath of the fasting person is a good thing, citing the Hadith:
وَلَخَلُوفُ فَمِ الصَّائِمِ أَطْيَبُ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ مِنْ رِيحِ الْمِسْكِ
"The smell of the mouth of a fasting person is better in the sight of God than the smell of musk (perfume)."
["Sahih Bukhari", 5927].
https://sunnah.com/bukhari:5927
This is a wrong understanding of the Hadith.
It is talking about the odour that is generated by the empty stomach, it is not encouraging a lack of hygiene by not brushing your teeth.
This misunderstanding arose at the time of Mu'adh Ibn Jabbal, and he corrected it:
روى الطبراني في " الكبير " ( 20 / 70 / 133 ) ، وفي " مسند الشاميين " ( 2250 ) بإسناد يحتمل التحسين عن عبد الرحمن بن غنم قال : "سألت معاذ بن جبل : أأتسوك وأنا صائم ؟ قال : نعم . قال : أي النهار أتسوك ؟ قال : أي النهار شئت غدوة أو عشية . قلت : إن الناس يكرهونه عشية ، ويقولون : إن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال : لخلوف الصائم أطيب عند الله من ريح المسك ؟ فقال : سبحان الله ! لقد أمرهم بالسواك ، وهو يعلم أنه لا بد أن يكون بفي الصائم خلوف وإن استاك ، وما كان بالذي يأمرهم أن ينتنوا أفواههم عمداً ، ما في ذلك من الخير شيء ، بل فيه شر ، إلا من ابتلي ببلاء لا يجد منه بداً . قلت : والغبار في سبيل الله أيضاً كذلك ؛ إنما يؤجر من اضطر إليه ، ولا يجد عنه محيصاً ؟ قال : نعم ، فأما من ألقى نفسه في البلاء عمداً ، فما له في ذلك من أجر " .

As soon as you die, your identity becomes a "body".
People use phrases like, "bring the body". "Lower the body to the grave yard", etc..
People don't even call you by your name. Whom you tried to impress your whole life..
Live a life to impress the creator not the creation.

Eating Suhr after Fajr and Breaking fast before Maghrib
Shaykh Muhammad ibn Saaleh Al Uthaymeen may Allah have mercy upon him was asked:
"what is the ruling on the one who eats while in doubt if the sun has risen for fajr or not then after that it becomes clear to him that the sun did actually rise, and and also the one who eats thinking the sun has set then after that it becomes clear to him that the sun did not actually set?"
The noble Shaykh replied by saying:
"if one is in doubt and thinks - has the sun risen or not - then he eats and then after that it becomes clear to him that the sun already rose then it is not upon him to make up his fast; even if he is completely unsure whether it has risen or not. This is because Allah the most high says " and eat and drink until the white thread (light) of dawn appears to you distinct from the black thread (darkness of the night)"............
And eating in this time is permitted and there is not no sin on the one who eats in this time nor does he have to make up his fast.
As for if one eats thinking the sun has set and then it becomes clear to him after that the sun did not actually set then it is not upon him to make up his fast upon the most correct opinion, because of the hadeeth of Asmaa bint abu Bakr: the companions opened their fast in the time of the prophet on a cloudy day and they were not ordered to make up their fast.
As for the one who eats in doubt whether the sun has set and then after that it becomes clear to him that the sun did not set then it is obligatory that he makes up his fast, because he ate in this state, meaning in a state of doubt and it is haraam for one to eat whilst being in this state of doubt. Rather it is not permissible for him to open his fast except if he is certain that the sun has set or at least he is leaning more towards that. In this particular state, meaning if he opens his fast and he is in doubt then it becomes clear to him that the sun did not set it is waajib for him to repeat his fast because his was not permitted to open his fast in that state.

The same applies to a woman who, after offering Fajr Prayer, remains seated at her Musalla mentioning the Name of Allah or reciting Ayahs of the Qur’an until the sun rises high, then offers two Rak‘ahs.

That is, corruption has appeared on land and sea, meaning that their livelihood has declined, with blight damaging the crops, sicknesses and epidemics sweeping over the people, and so on. That is because of what their hands have brought of corrupt deeds that spread corruption far and wide.
The things mentioned have occurred so that ALLĀH might cause them

"(so that they may turn in repentance)" from their evil deeds, which have resulted in so much corruption and harm, and they may set their affairs straight.
Glory be to the One Who brings about blessings through HIS trials and tests, and Who bestows grace through HIS punishment. Otherwise, if HE caused them to taste the consequences of all that they have earned. HE would not leave any living creature on the face of the earth.

Showing compassion to those with shattered hearts.
Shaykh Ibn uthaymeen Rahimahullah said:
"We should be gentle with those who are broken-hearted, i.e., those who have suffered some pain and are distressed. This breakage is not of bones, but of the heart is broken. Just as someone's business collapses, or a loved one or friend passes away, and their heart shatters! In any case, empathy is essential for such individuals, which is why Shariah has introduced the concept of condolence (ta'zeeyat)."

عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ رضي الله عنه قَالَ يَذْهَبُ الصَّالِحُونَ وَيَبْقَى أَهْلُ الرَّيْبِ قَالُوا يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ وَمَنْ أَهْلُ الرَّيْبِ قَالَ قَوْمٌ لا يَأْمُرُونَ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ وَلا يَنْهَوْنَ عَنِ الْمُنْكَرِ
وفي رواية أخرى قال لَا يَعْرِفُ مَعْرُوفًا وَلَا يُنْكِرُ مُنْكَرًا

Trust the Qadr [Decree] of Allah ❤️
Imam Ibn al-Qayyim said:
"Be pleased with everything that Allah does with you. For indeed He does not prevent you except to give you. He does not test you except to protect and save you. He does not give you ill health except to cure you.”
Madarij As-Salikin [2/208]
What we grieve over today may be the very thing that strengthens our faith tomorrow.
Trust the Qadr of Allah, for He sees what we do not, knows what we cannot, and guides us even through what we fear.
Sometimes, the door that closes is His mercy shielding us, and the pain we feel is Him pulling us closer.
