Regarding the blessed month of Ramadan…

Regarding the blessed month of Ramadan, the holy Prophet (S) said, “It is the month in which you are invited to be the guests of Allah.” Very well, you’ve been invited. [Now,] there is a time when one is invited somewhere, they accept [the invitation], go to that gathering, and they are served. But there is another time when someone invites us, [but] we don’t get up, we don’t go to that gathering, and [so] we won’t be served. Thus, it is up to you and me to accept. This month is the month of Ramadan, the month of a banquet, the month of the infinite expanse of divine mercy. Who will go to sit at this table and be served?
