The questioner : The guidance of the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) and the Messenger in the month of Ramadan, O honorable Shaykh, how was it?
The Shaykh : The guidance of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in Ramadan, and the guidance of the righteous predecessors from the Companions and the Tabi'un (the generation after the Companions) with excellence, was to make the most of this blessed month by doing much good and avoiding evil. Indeed, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would be visited by Jibril every night, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) would recite the Qur'an to him. And the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), when he met Jibril, was more generous with good than the sending wind.
And he (peace and blessings be upon him) was the most generous of people, and he was at his most generous in Ramadan. And the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) would perform i'tikaf (spiritual retreat in the mosque) in Ramadan during the last ten nights, seeking the Night of Decree. I'tikaf is for a person to stay in the mosque to devote himself to the worship of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). Yes, that is correct.
The questioner : May Allah reward you. Regarding the tarawih (the Ramadan night prayer), the listener Yasser Abd al-Rahim says.
