Imam Khomeini and divine spirituality in the month of Ramadan.

Imam Khomeini once said in his historic messages that the holy ramadan is the month in which you should strengthen yourself morally. During the blessed month of Ramadan, host compels you to fast in order to block those venues that lie open to worldly considerations and lusts. In this way, the believers and faithful people get prepared for the "Laylatuul Qadr", which is known as the night of power or decree. According to Imam Khomeini, the deference between God's feast and peoples' feasts is that when you go to a feast, you will have some means of entertainment and food stuffs to eat which can be befitting in accordance with your status.  People within Imam Khomeini’s inner circle say that it was evident that he had always experienced a spiritual transformation after this holy period. Imam also used to cancel all extra activities to devote himself for divine and spiritual activities during this holy period and allocated a great part of his time for recitation of the noble book of Quran and supplications narrated by the holy prophet and his infallible successors. Muslim and religious scholars believe that if Imam’s recommendations for the blessed month of Ramadan can prevent the human societies form falling into pits of moral and social decline.
