The (Thought Catcher) Program and Ramadan Profits
The ACADEMION International Training Institute presented the (Thought CaptureOn Wednesday, the 9th of Ramadan 1442 AH, at exactly 10 PM, the guest of the program was Mr. Jotyar Bamerni, a German preacher and trainer in the skills of preparing preachers, who has many publications in German, Arabic, and Kurdish, including the biography of the Prophet, of which more than a million copies have been printed. He is the supervisor of the civilizational introduction project of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and the director of the Companions Academy for training preachers, through a live broadcast on YouTube from the International Academicians Institute for Training.
Mr. Bamerni began his talk about the great opportunities that a person can gain in the month of Ramadan, during which one can train oneself on the noble Islamic morals. For whoever has good character has indeed attained much good. Therefore, his supplication (peace be upon him) was not in vain when he said: "Guide me to the best of morals, for none can guide to the best of them except You, and turn away from me its evils, for none can turn away from me its evils except You." He emphasized that one must train oneself to practice good character like exercising; the exercise of morals requires practice, patience, and the month of Ramadan is the best school for it, and one must continue this in the other months.
Mr. Bamerni pointed out that if a person intends during Ramadan to emerge with a profit in training oneself on noble morals, he will be happy, God willing. For what attracts non-Muslims to Islam the most is noble morals, and what brings people to Paradise is good character.
Bamerni added: During Ramadan and after Ramadan, we should take care of noble morals, strengthen them, and preserve the fruits of the Islamic moral school and spread them at all levels. There are many moralities: such as generosity, kindness, altruism, maintaining family ties, and modesty. Whenever a person intensifies their attention to these morals, we can maintain them after Ramadan and avoid neglecting obligations, working diligently to refine oneself and accustom it to good morals.
Bamerni concluded his reflection by referring to the command of good, where he said (peace be upon him): "By the One in Whose Hand is my soul, you must enjoin what is right and forbid what is wrong, or else Allah will soon send upon you a punishment, and you will call upon Him, but He will not respond to you." The great profit lies in calling people to righteousness, for people need the call and the command of good and the prohibition of wrong in their lives, for there is great virtue in calling to Allah, the Exalted..
