Everything Al-Bukhari recorded about Ramadan, gathered into one place.

Why That Is Useful

The material is spread across several books of the Sahih — fasting in one, the night prayer in another, I'tikaf in a third, and Zakat al-Fitr somewhere else again. Anyone wanting to know what is authentically established about the month has to go looking in four directions.

This book collects it and adds the two Eid prayers and Sadaqat Al-Fitr for completeness, since they belong to the same season.

What Is Covered

  • Saum — the fast itself
  • Salat At-Tarawih — the optional long night prayer
  • Laylat Al-Qadr — the Night of Decree
  • I'tikaf — devotional retreat in the mosque
  • The two Eid prayers
  • Sadaqat Al-Fitr — the obligatory alms at the end of the month

Guided Translations

The translations are guided rather than bare, so a reader without training can follow what a narration establishes and where its difficulty lies.

Who It Is For

Anyone who wants their Ramadan practice grounded in the authentic narrations rather than in custom. Imams and teachers preparing material. Best read in Sha'ban, before the month begins.

While fasting may be the most conspicuous sign of Ramadhan, plenty of other widely practiced rituals also constitute Ramadhan and thus deserve equal attention. In 'Understanding Ramadan,' Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan explains the rituals of Ramadhan, from fasting to taraweeh to the Night of Power, in an encyclopedia-like treatment. Khan's 'Understanding Ramadan' figures to be an exceptionally resourceful book that any Muslim can resort to in times of doubt or ambivalence. - Al-Jumuah Vol 20, Issue 09
