THE REVIVAL OF TAQWA IN THE HOLY MONTH OF RAMADAN
April 27, 2021
Introduction
Fasting in the month of Ramadan is one of the Five Pillars of Islam. Indeed, Ramadan is among the holiest periods in Islamic Calendar. It is a time of revitalization of faith and commitment to spiritual cleansing. Also, Muslims are expected to showcase their sense of deep reflection and humanitarianism in the Holy Month of Ramadan. It is, therefore, appropriate for the leadership of the Ghana National Mosque to create a platform for a discourse on the revival of TAQWA in the sanctified month of Ramadan. The fundamental objective of this presentation is to establish the centrality of TAQWA to fasting and the need to revive TAQWA in the month of fasting. What is, then, TAQWA? An answer to this question takes us to the definition of TAQWA.
