Madani campaign of Nafl fasts

Dear Islamic brothers! Make intention that we will also try to observe these 6 fasts at our continence in this month of Shawwal-ul-Mukarram, اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه عَزَّوَجَلَّ. The Islamic brothers, who observe Nafl fasts, have been categorized as per organization:

 

§  Excellent: The one who observes ‘Saum-e-Dawoodi’ [the fast observed by Prophet Sayyiduna Dawood عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلَام], it means observing a fast every alternate day. Moreover, observing at least 15 fasts in a month at his convenience or observing fasts throughout the year except on the five prohibited days, that person will also attain an ‘Excellent’ position.

(It is Makruh Tahreemi to observe a fast on Eid-ul-Fitr, and 10, 11, 12, 13 of Zul-Hijja-til-Haraam.) (Durr-e-Mukhtar, Rad-dul-Muhtar, vol. 3, pp. 391)

§  Good: One observing fast every blessed Monday and Thursday will attain a ‘good’ position. (Observing fasts on Monday and Thursday is a Sunnah. However, one observing seven fasts in a Madani month at his convenience will also be organizationally deemed to have attained a ‘good’ position.)

§  Average: One observing fasts every blessed Monday or, due to some compulsion, on the weekly holiday will be attaining an ‘average’ position. (That way, he will be observing four or five fasts in a month.)

Why do we not take interest in recitation?

Dear Islamic brothers! We should also spend our life by offering Faraaid along with offering Nawafil and reciting the Holy Quran abundantly, but unfortunately, nowadays majority of Muslims are seen far from the recitation of the Holy Quran. There was a time when the voice of the recitation of the Holy Quran
