Summary
This Bayan Linnas outlines ways to welcome Ramadan: correcting one's intention so it is sincere for Allah, making supplications to reach and be blessed in Ramadan, and increasing Quran recitation. Supplications found in some hadith that do not reach sahih grade may be practised under the general encouragement to make du'a. The conditions are that the supplication does not contradict the Shariah and is not attributed to the Prophet ﷺ as his saying.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Meskipun sesetengah hadith tersebut tidak mencapai taraf sahih namun ianya boleh diamalkan berdasarkan keumuman berdoa selagi mana ianya tidak bercanggah dengan syarak dan mestilah tidak menyandarkan doa tersebut pada Nabi ﷺ.
