Prophet's Khutba for Ramadan
Ibn Khuzaima reported on the authority of Salman al-Farisi that the Prophet Sallallahu Alayhi Wassalam delivered a Khutbah on the last day of Sh'aban saying:
"O people: You are about to enter the shadow of a great blessed month. A night therein is better than a thousand months. Allah All-Mighty made fasting during this month an obligation and encouraged people to perform extra prayers during its nights.
Seeking nearness to Allah All-Mighty through a good deed would be considered like performing an obligatory act of worship. In turn, performance of an obligatory act of worship during this month would be rewarded seventy times more than during any other month.
It is the month of patience, and the reward for patience is Jannah.
It is the month of comforting others, and the month during which believers would enjoy plentifulness."
The Prophet Sallallahu Alayhi Wassalam went on to say:
"Make sure you frequently do four things, two of which would please your Lord and the other two are indispensable for your salvation in the Hereafter.
As for the two things that would please your Lord, they are:
Testifying to the oneness of Allah All-Mighty and seeking repentance.
And the other two things are:
Asking Allah All-Mighty the favour of entering Jannah and seeking refuge in Him from the Hell Fire."

"Whoever does not give up false statements (i.e. telling lies), and evil deeds, and speaking bad words to others, Allah is not in need of his leaving his food and drink (fasting)."
