Ramadan is only is only a few days away. All of us are getting ready for a month of spiritual and religious devotion, getting closer to our faith, seeking nearness to Allah (swt), and Prophet (pbuh) and his Ahlulbayt. Sometimes we need a kickstart to get into our spiritual and religious groove. Here is my list of top 12 lectures to listen to before the start of Ramadan. If you have any that you’d like to share please leave a link in the comments section.
