Regarding the Nature of the Excellence of the Arabs and the Saying of the Shuʿūbiyyah
Shaykh Ibn Bāz (رحمه الله) said:
"Hence, al-Ṣiddīq, ʿUmar, ʿUthmān, ʿAlī and the rest of the ten (promised Paradise), and others from the Anṣār and Muḥājirīn, they have great excellence, and similarly, those who followed them upon goodness in carrying knowledge, and making jihād in Allāh’s path, until they spread Allāh’s religion and taught it to the people, regardless of whether they are Arabs or non-Arabs.
They have a great right upon the later Muslims in supplicating for them, asking for Allāḥ’s pleasure for them, thanking them for what they did, and loving them for that."

Not only do we as Muslims need a #Ramadan but because of all the chaos and turmoil we see around us, its clear that this society needs a Ramadan (with #Islam) so that they can attain taqwa (piety) and be saved from the various vices they've become slaves of besides Allah!
It is as Rabi' ibn 'Amir (رضي الله عنه) said, "Allah has sent us to deliver whomsoever He chooses, from the worship of men, to the 'ubudiyyah (worship and servitude) of Allah, and from the narrowness of this world, to the vastness of this world and the Hereafter, and from the oppression of the (false) religions, to the justice of Islam."
Refer to al-Bidayah wa al-Nihayah (7/40) of Ibn Kathir.

When To Revise the Qur'an and Recite in #Ramadan
Imam Ibn Rajab (d.795H) - رحمه الله - said:
There occurs in the hadith of Ibn Abbas (رضي الله عنهما) that, "The review (of the Qur'an) between the Prophet (ﷺ) and Jibra'il occured at night."
This is evidence of the desirability of increasing in recitation during the nights of Ramadan, since at night, the distractions are cut off, concerns are gathered together and the heart and the tongue agree upon comtemplation, as Allah the Exalted said,
"Indeed, the rising by night (for Tahajjud Prayer) is very hard and most potent and good for governing (the soul), and most suitable for (understanding) the Word (of Allah)." [Surah al-Muzzammil 73:6]
Refer to Lata'if al-Ma'arif (p. 393) of Ibn Rajab
