During this month, Muslims fast from their first prayer of the day, at dawn, to the fourth, just after sunset. They also refrain from smoking and sexual relations during the day. They pray more fervently during the month and increase alms-giving.
Their increased fervor is not just to honor the month—it is also to receive greater rewards for themselves. Muhammad is believed to have preached a sermon on Ramadan in which he said, “Whoever performs an obligatory deed in (this month) shall receive the reward of performing seventy obligations at any other time.” A Taliban spokesman recently stated, “Our fight is Jihad and an obligatory worship. And every obligatory act of worship has 70 times more reward in Ramadan.”
Denison continues: “We can expect further attacks this month as radical Islamists seek reward in heaven for committing atrocities on earth. But Ramadan is also an important time for Christians to intercede for Muslims and especially for jihadists. As Muslims focus more intensely on prayer and worship, many are seeing visions and dreams of Jesus.”
