Brilio.net - The holy month of Ramadan is a joyful month for Muslims all over the world. On this occasion, all Muslims are required to fast. Not only that, this month is also an opportunity for Muslims and Muslim women to increase their practice. In the holy month of Ramadan, Muslims can ask Allah SWT for forgiveness. The reason is, this month Allah SWT opens the door to forgiveness and repentance as much as possible for His people. In fact, Allah grants other wishes of His people, starting from safety, health, easy sustenance and many others.
Apart from that, Allah SWT also promises double rewards for anyone who wants to increase their good deeds during the month of Ramadan. Practice itself can be obtained in various ways, starting from carrying out the five daily prayers, giving alms, reading the Koran, dhikr, istighfar and others. Talking about praying to Allah SWT in the month of Ramadan, are there certain times? Actually praying can be done at any time, but if you want to be more solemn you can do it at the following times, as reported by brilio.net from various sources, Friday (15/3).

Sahur is done in the third part of the night, at this time the prayers you pray will be easily answered by Allah SWT. Before performing sahur, you can perform the tahajud prayer first and then pray. As in the Hadith of the History of Bukhari and Muslim, numbers 1145 and 758. From Abu Hurairah radhiyallahu anhu, the Prophet sallallaahu alaihi wa sallam said: "Our Rabb tabaraka wa taala descended to the sky world when the last third of the night remains.
Then Allah said, "Whoever prays to Me, I will grant it. Whoever asks Me, then I give. Whoever asks Me for forgiveness, then I will forgive." This prayer was granted by Allah SWT in a third of the night was also explained by Ibn Hajar. In the hadith above, Ibn Hajar said: "Prayers and istighfar at dawn are easily answered." (Fath Al-Bari, 3: 32).

When you fast and pray, it will be the right time. The reason is that people who are fasting are advised to pray a lot in order to get goodness in this world and the hereafter.
In this case, Abu Hurairah radhiyallahu anhu said that the Prophet sallallaahu alaihi wa sallam once said: "Three people whose prayers are not rejected: the person who fasts until he breaks the fast, the just leader, and the prayers of the person who has been wronged." (HR. Ahmad 2: 305. Shaykh Syuaib Al Arnauth said that this hadith is authentic with various ways and reinforcements).
Imam Nawawi Rahimullah also explained this as follows: "It is Sunnah for those who fast to increase their prayers for the affairs of the afterlife and this world, and they can also pray for the wishes they desire, as well as don't forget to pray for goodness for Muslims in general." (Al- Majmu, 6: 273).

When breaking the fast, try to say a prayer. This is explained in the Hadith narrated by Tirmidhi and Ibn Majah, where Rasulullah shallallahu alaihi wa sallam said: "There are three people whose prayers are not rejected: (1) A just leader, (2) A person who fasts when he breaks his fast, (3) Prayer people who are wronged (HR. Tirmidhi no. 2526, 3598 and Ibnu Majah no. 1752.
Al-Hafizh Abu Thahir said that this hadith was hasan). Then in Tuhfah Al-Ahwadzi (7: 278) again explained this matter. "That Muslims who pray when breaking the fast will be easily granted by Allah, because that person has finished fulfilling "worship, namely in a state of submission and humbling oneself before Allah. This is what Allah likes, so that every prayer offered by his people in that state will be easily accepted by Allah."

Of course, this is not only done during the month of Ramadan, other months are also the right time to pray. As is well known, when the call to prayer is heard, Muslims are advised to answer the call to prayer by saying the same pronunciation.
As in the Hadith narrated by Abu Daud, Rasulullah Shallallahualaihi Wasallam said: "Prayer is not rejected at two times, or at least there is little chance of being rejected. Namely when the call to prayer is heard and when the war is raging, when both sides attack each other (HR. Abu Daud, 2540, Ibnu Hajar Al Asqalani in Nata-ijul Afkar, 1/369, said: Hasan Sahih).
Tips for controlling your lust during the month of Ramadan.
Maintaining your desires during the month of Ramadan requires commitment and high self-awareness. One effective way is to increase worship and prayer, which can help focus thoughts and energy on positive things.
Reading the Koran and attending religious studies can also increase spirituality and reduce the temptation of lust. Apart from that, maintaining a diet at dawn and breaking the fast with nutritious food and not excessive food can help maintain emotional and physical balance.
Avoiding situations that can trigger lust is also important. This includes reducing exposure to inappropriate media or conversations that may generate negative thoughts. Spending time with family and friends who support your spiritual goals can provide a positive environment.
Sharing and doing good to others can also divert attention from personal desires and strengthen feelings of empathy and togetherness. Thus, Ramadan becomes an opportunity to not only improve self-discipline but also to grow spiritually and socially. Summarized by brilio.net from various sources, Friday (15/3), here are tips for maintaining lust during the month of Ramadan:
The first step in controlling lust is to recognize and understand it. Lust can come from various sources such as material desires, sexual urges, or the desire to gain power. By understanding the origins and nature of your desires, you can control them more easily.
It is important to maintain a balance between needs and wants. Don't let lust control your life so you don't lose focus on more important things such as family, health and happiness.
The practice of meditation and self-reflection can help you develop better self-awareness. By being aware of the thoughts, feelings, and urges that arise, you can more easily recognize when lust begins to emerge and control it.
Determine your life priorities and set clear goals. By having a clear vision of what you want to achieve in life, you can more easily resist temptations and desires that can prevent you from achieving those goals.
Train yourself to control your desires through techniques such as meditation, exercise, or therapy. Practicing self-control regularly will strengthen your ability to resist temptation and unhealthy desires.
Lust often arises as a response to stress, anxiety, or emotional dissatisfaction. Therefore, it is important to maintain your emotional health in ways such as exercising, getting enough sleep, managing stress, and interacting with loved ones.
A negative or risky environment can increase the likelihood of being influenced by unhealthy desires. Avoid environments or situations that can trigger negative desires, and look for an environment that supports your personal and spiritual growth.
If you find it difficult to control your desires or overcome unhealthy urges, don't hesitate to seek help from professionals such as a counselor or therapist. They can provide support, guidance, and strategies to help you overcome these challenges.
