Happy Ramadan, Ramadan Mubarak

Assalamualaikum, and Ramadan Mubarak!
Just came back from Taraweeh @ the Masjid
@ the masjid, between the fourth and fifth rak'at, the Imam gave a short yet effective lecture on Ramadan. I'll summarize the points he made:
1. The Shayateen are restrained during Ramadan, but this refers to the Jinn, not the people. Meaning, there are still humans(including ourselves) there to encourage us to do wrong.
2.  During Ramadan, the musala is packed for Ishaa' prayer, but during the year it isn't. iA all masjids will be full for all prayers year-round. Ameen!
3. It's important to learn about the Prophet(S)'s live and tribulations so that we can, in essence, become closer to him. By studying the Prophet(peace be upon him)'s Seerah, we can learn from his exemplary character...his extraordinary perseverance, patience, and kindness, among other virtues. Alhamdulilah I have completed a course in Seerah but I look forward to learning even more about the Prophet(peace be upon him) this Ramadan, insha' Allah.

Pray Taraweeh, pray for all your brothers and sisters around the world, and sleep well and wake early for Suhur. Assalamualaikum! May Allah(SWT) Bless and Accept all of Our Good Deeds this Ramadan.
