The Last 10 Days of Ramadan Support Patients’ Aid

Ramadan, the blessed month for Muslims worldwide, is a time of fasting, spiritual reflection, prayer, and charity. It serves as an opportunity for believers to strengthen their relationship with Allah (swt), purify their hearts, and seek forgiveness. However, the last ten days of Ramadan hold a special place in the hearts of Muslims, as they provide a unique chance to intensify acts of worship and charity. It is during these final days that one of the most significant nights in the Islamic calendar, Laylatul Qadr (The Night of Power), falls. This night is a time when Allah’s mercy and blessings are abundant, and the rewards for good deeds are multiplied exponentially. 

The Importance of the Last 10 Days of Ramadan

The last ten days of Ramadan are a time for Muslims to push their devotion to the highest levels. These days offer a rare opportunity to experience Laylatul Qadr,  the night on which the Quran was first revealed to the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) in the cave of Hira. It is believed that this night is filled with blessings and mercy, and worship during it is more rewarding than a thousand months. 

Allah (swt) says in Surah Al-Qadr (97:3): “The Night of Decree (Laylatul Qadr) is better than a thousand months."

This night is so significant that the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) encouraged Muslims to seek it during the last ten nights, especially the odd-numbered nights. By doing so, they can maximize their spiritual benefit during this holy period. 

Throughout Ramadan, Muslims focus on self-restraint and giving, but in these last ten days, they focus on intensified worship, making dua, and engaging in acts of charity. Charity is an integral part of Ramadan, and giving during these final days is especially rewarding. It is also a time when many Muslims increase their sadaqah and zakat, as the rewards for these acts are multiplied manifold. 

“Those who give, out of their own possessions, by night and by day, in private and in public will have their reward with their Lord.”  Quran 2:274  

Donations During the Last 10 Days of Ramadan

Charity in Islam holds great significance, and during Ramadan, it reaches its peak. Allah (swt) commands Muslims to give generously to those in need, especially during the last ten days of Ramadan. On Laylatul Qadr, the rewards for acts of charity are beyond comprehension, as Allah promises to reward those who give with immense blessings and mercy. 

The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) emphasized the value of charity, saying: “The believer’s shade on the Day of Resurrection will be his charity."  Al-Tirmidhi

The charity that you give during this blessed month has an everlasting impact on both your own soul and the lives of others. As the Quran tells us, Allah (swt) multiplies the rewards of good deeds, particularly during the final days of Ramadan, so donate now to Patients’ aid and make it an ideal time to support those who are less fortunate.

Now, imagine the lives of patients, especially those suffering from life-threatening conditions such as cancer, who desperately need support in this time of Ramadan. You have the ability to make a direct impact on their lives by donating to Patients’ aid, helping provide them with the medical care they desperately need.

Support Underprivileged Patients Coming to JPMC

For countless individuals living in marginalized regions like Sindh and Balochistan, the hope of accessing healthcare feels like a distant dream. These areas grapple with severe challenges, from extreme poverty to underdeveloped healthcare facilities. As a result, many patients facing life-threatening illnesses, including cancer, travel to Karachi, hoping to find the treatment they desperately need at institutions like the Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Centre (JPMC). 

Patients’ Aid has been instrumental in making healthcare more accessible and compassionate at JPMC. For years, JPMC has been a beacon of hope for these individuals, offering a lifeline in times of despair. Through generous support, Patients’ Aid have transformed and revitalized numerous departments, including the OPD, Accident and Emergency, Gynecology and Obstetrics, CyberKnife Robotic Surgery Facility, Nephrology, Psychiatry and Behavioral Health, Medical ICU, Dermatology, and Radiology at JPMC. With every department they touch, Patient Aid is not just improving infrastructure, they are restoring hope, giving people a chance at life, and ensuring that those who need it most don’t have to face their battles alone.

Your charity can bring hope to a patient who might otherwise not be able to afford the treatments they so desperately require. Imagine the relief of a mother knowing her child can receive the medical care they need because of your donation. Think of the joy a boy will feel when his father’s dialysis is paid for, giving them a chance at survival. This Ramadan, your charity can be the light that guides someone through their darkest days. 

Zakat – The Pillar of Charity
