Taking advantage from the holy month of Rajab

Self-purification during the holy month of Rajab can move the person forward spiritually as much as 19 years of normal months. 

Rajab is a very powerful temporal womb which we can use to prepare ourselves for the life in the hereafter. a temporal womb is a period of time which when we enter it, it can speed up our spiritual growth significantly.

God has selected Rajab as a month for people to repent and cleanse themselves from sins, so that they would be ready to enter Ramadan.

God loves his servants so much that he has specified three days of of Rajab (13th, 14th, and 15th) for people to fast and has declared that the reward for it will be equal to 900 years of praying.

900 years of praying is more than 9 times of one's lifespan. So, if a 60-year-old person has committed sins all his life, he can cleanse himself from all that if he can take advantage of this month well. 

God is so kind and eager to reconcile with us that He's looking for any excuse to forgive our sins. 

God has opened his arms to all and has prepared this month as a time to reconcile with Him. So let's open our hearts to God and make our hearts calm and happy with the remembrance of God. 

May God bless Imam Khomeini's soul. He used to cancel half of his daily schedule during Rajab, to be able to take advantage of this month and pray.

And during Sha'ban, he used to cancel about 75% of his schedule; When Ramadan arrived, he would cancel all his other works except a few things that were absolutely necessary.

How can we be true humans when we dedicate no private time to God?

If a person doesn't seclude himself from time to time to train his soul, this person will not be able to take big steps (toward God).

So, if someone is capable enough to use this month well to take big spiritual steps, he would resemble a healthy infant who is growing well in his mother's womb and will have a healthy birth. 

If a person pays attention and observes the rules of spiritual growth in the months of Rajab, Sha'ban, and Ramadan (Specially Laylat al-Qadr) he will reap great rewards from them.
