First of all, before we talk about this verse, let's talk about "What is the month of Ramadan? What is its importance?" Ramadan is the last month of the Three Months and it is also known as the sultan of eleven months.

 The reason for this is that the Kadir Night, which is better than a thousand months, takes place in this month and also Quran was sent down on this night. Therefore, the value of this month is very different for Muslims and Allah. At the same time, one of the five pillars of Islam, "fasting", is also performed in this month. This prayer during Ramadan makes us grateful for the countless blessings Allah has given us. In short, this month is both a month of gratitude and a month of salvation for Muslims. Now that we know what the month of Ramadan means, we can start to interpret the above verse. Actually, this verse can be reconciled with what I have just mentioned. I think in this verse it mentions that Allah has created us many opportunities during the month of Ramadan and it mentions that even if we do a small favor this month, we will take the thousandfold of the favor we do. But in Ramadan, we cannot get rid of hellfire by just starving our bodies. If we really want to deserve the heaven, we shouldn't stop to do our worships by saying that I am already fasting. In this month, we need to learn to educate both our soul and our mouth. If we swear or gossip while fasting, the fast becomes meaningless. At the same time, we need to empathize this month because even a month of hunger is very difficult for us but our distant siblings experience this situation all the time so we should help people that are poor by thinking about them. Now that we have talked about the verse, I want to tell you about my Ramadan routine. First, my mother gets up at 3.00 a.m and prepares something to eat for sahoor. Then she comes to wake up us at around 3.30 o'clock. Of course, I do not want to wake up because I am so fond of my sleep and I can wake up after my mom calls me at least four or five times. Usually, the drummer comes to our neighborhood when I wake up. When I wake up, I always run directly to the window and look at the drummer with my brother. After everyone wakes up, I do my sahoor and if there are online lessons the next day, I go to bed without wasting time but on weekends I usually don't sleep until sahoor and go to bed after doing my sahoor. Our lessons continue until 14.20 in the afternoon, so I don't do another thing until that time. I rest for half an hour after online classes are over then I start to study in a way that doesn't make me tired. Sometimes I don't hear the Ezan when I study, so my mother comes and says that it is time then I pray, so my time passes like that until iftar. I read the Quran after iftar. Although I try to read every day,  I don't read it the days that I am very tired. To sum up in Ramadan my days pass like this. I hope I was able to teach you something with this article.
