Rajab

Nabi (sallallahu `alayhi wasallam) would make dua to be allowed to witness the month of Ramadaan from the time the crescent of Rajab would be sighted. "O Allah! Bless us in Rajab and Sha`baan and allow us to witness the month of Ramadaan" (Tabarani).
He (salallahu `alahi wasallam) would also make the following dua:

"O Allah! Safeguard me for the month of Ramadaan and guard the month of Ramadaan for me (that I attain the maximum blessings of this month)" (Tabarani). Imaam Suyuti (Rahimahullah), a renowned Shafi` scholar narrates in Ad Durrul Manthoor from Mu`alla bin Fadhl: The pious people of the past would begin making dua to witness the month of Ramadaan six months in advance! What can we do in preparation for Ramadaan?

Firstly, fulfil all obligations that are outstanding towards people whether it be of a monetary nature or anything else.

Secondly, try and programme ourselves in such a way that we have minimum work in Ramadaan and maximum time to dedicate to Allah Ta’ala.

Thirdly, draw up for ourselves a programme, deciding how we will utilise our time fruitfully during the Mubarak month of mercy.

Lastly, try and increase our time spent in the pleasure of Allah Ta’ala so that we are ready to receive this great month.

May Allah Ta’ala
grant us the best of this month and shower us with his mercy and forgiveness. Aameen.
