29th Shacbaan 1428 hegira

By the grace of Allah and His blessings, today our brother Petter, who was born in Sweden and is of Finnish ethnicity, embraced Islam reciting the Testimony before a group of people during a lecture about the blessed month of Ramadan.

Our brother Petter is 27 years of age and is a good athlete. Praise be to Allah who guided him at this blessed time of the year.

We take advantage of this occasion to congratulate you all and the Ummah with the start of the blessed month of Ramadan, and we invoke Allah to make us able to fast during the month and offer additional night prayers, and that we be of those admitted to Paradise and accompany our beloved prophet Muhammad, may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. O Allah! Help us to fulfill the month and obey you therein. Grant us the free time which enables us to do nothing but worship You, invoke You, and recite Your book. Grant us therein all the blessings.
