1. Dhikr app mentioned in the lecture: ‘Fortress of the Muslim’ or ‘Hisnul Muslim’. 2. Regarding ‘daily travel’ for those who need to such as work, and it becomes difficult for you, you may still break your fast on the journey. But when you return home you must resume fasting for the remaining hours before Maghrib. You must still make the days up later.

After You Read BENEFITS OF ÄYAT AL-KURSI You will never miss to recite 1. Recite while leaving your house, and a group of angels will protect you. 2. Recite on entering your house, and poverty will not enter your home. 3. Recite in the morning, and you will be protected until the evening. 4. Recite in the evening and you will be protected until the morning. 5. Recite after fard salah, and the only thing that separates you from Paradise is death. 6. The thief does not approach its reciter. Make Habit reading in RAMADAN on daily basis Share with other

I'm a revert to Islam. I'm working to learn arabic and have downloaded (and listened to) the Quran on Audible by M.A.S Abdel Haleem. This will be my first Ramadan alhamdulillah, and I want to make the most of it. My question is: I'm still working on my arabic and want to participate in Juz this Ramadan inshallah. Is it suitable to listen to the Quran during the day (at the gym, at work, to and from work)? I have a two year old son, and my wife is a full-time student, so my time at home alone is limited.

[@belal.assaad]

Wa alaikumussalam dear brother, may Allah bless your efforts and work. In your case, you have the option of breaking your fast while on travel, since the distance you mentioned is a valid ‘travel’ distance in which you it is permissible, even if it is every day. However, once you arrive back to your home town, if it is before Maghrib, you just resume fasting for the remainder of the hours left and then make up this whole day after Ramadan when you can. You may do them separately, eg a few days you need to make up during the year when you’re not travelling, another few days you need to make up in other days. They do not have to be in consecutive days.
