What does the word “Ramadan” mean?
The word Ramadan is derived from the Arabic word Ramida رَمِضَ or Ar-Ramad الرَمَضُ
It means intense scorching heat. It is also derived from the word Ramdha الرمضاء which means sun-baked sand. The Arabs used to call the land that is heated by the sun – الارضُ الرمضاءُ.
The word “Ramadan” is to indicate the heating sensation in the stomach due to thirst/hunger
Others say: it’s called Ramadan because Ramadan burns the sins of the believers with good deeds, just as the blazing sun evaporates water from the surface of the ground, Ramadan burns away one’s sins.
Heat brings change. Just like heat can help shape, form, and mold virtually every type of matter from metal and plastics, to plants and living cells, this spiritual heat helps shape, reform and renew the hearts of believers.
