Righteous deeds after Ramadan

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh:
May Allah greet you and bless you.

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, perhaps at the end of these episodes we have recorded with you, and in closing this month, you will speak to the brothers and sisters about righteous deeds after Ramadan, and about the conclusion of the month. May Allah reward you with the best reward for us and for the Muslims?

The Shaykh:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad. Yes, the month of Ramadan is concluded with repentance, seeking forgiveness, and having great hope in Allah (Mighty and Majestic), because He multiplies the rewards for His servants, so it is concluded with good, with a good conclusion. And it is followed, as Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) has prescribed, by zakat al-fitr, by the festival prayer, and by righteous deeds. This is in contrast to those who seize the end of Ramadan to indulge in their amusement and play. Indeed, the month of Ramadan is a month of worship, and worship is followed by obedience and gratitude to Allah (Mighty and Majestic). The month of Ramadan is followed by fasting six days in Shawwal. As for the joy on the day of the festival, the controlled joy is part of worship. The joy
Say, "In the bounty of Allah and in His mercy - in that let them rejoiceقُلْ بِفَضْلِ اللَّهِ وَبِرَحْمَتِهِ فَبِذَٰلِكَ فَلْيَفْرَحُوا
[Yunus 10:58]
The Muslim rejoices not because he has rushed to his desires after fasting, but because Allah enabled him to fast this month, so he rejoices in that by the grace of Allah (Mighty and Majestic). He is generous with himself in happiness and in eating from what Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) has made lawful. Therefore, it is prescribed to eat the festival food and to display the breaking of the fast. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not go out for the 'Id al-Fitr prayer until he ate some dates upon going out, to display the breaking of the fast and to give thanks to Allah (Mighty and Majestic) for that. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh
