Late at night, when the world becomes still, a believer lifts their hands in duʿā. No one hears the whispers of their heart—except Allah.

In these blessed nights of Ramadan, what matters most is ikhlāṣ—sincerity.

The Prophet ﷺ reminded us:
“Actions are judged by intentions, and every person will have what they intended.”
— Bukhari and Muslim

Often, the most beloved charity is the one given quietly, known only to Allah. It may seem small in this world, but its reward can be immense because of the sincerity behind it.

The last ten days and nights of Ramadan is a time of spiritual cleansing and purification, and hold great significance as Allah shows immense mercy to His creation.

These special days are a chance to benefit from the immense blessings of Ramadan and seek salvation before the month comes to an end.

The Prophet (PBUH) said, “Dua is the essence of worship.” [Tirmidhi].

When performed in the last ten nights of Ramadan, with sincere intention and faith in Allah’s (SWT) acceptance, the rewards of making du’a could be exceptional.

We have put together some of the most beneficial dua’s to help you reap the rewards of the last ten days of Ramadan.

Dua for Laylatul Qadr

Laylatul Qadr, the Night of Decree or Night of Power, is one of the most sacred nights in the Islamic calendar.

It is a commonly held belief that Laylatul Qadr (the Night of Power) occurs on the 27th Ramadan. However, scholars of Hadith recommend focusing on the last 10 nights of Ramadan, especially the odd nights, as it is most likely to have occurred in one of these nights. Dua for the blessed night:

الْلَّهُمَّ اِنَّكَ عَفُوٌّ تُحِبُّ الْعَفْوَ فَاعْفُ عَنِّي

‘Allahumma innaka Afuwwun (Karimun) tuhibbul `afwa fa`fu `annee’

Translation: “O Allah, indeed You are Pardoning, (Generous) You love to pardon, so pardon me.”

When severe winter weather threatened our community, action couldn’t wait.

With the timely support of NYDIS, Halal Food Connections distributed critical blankets, essential resources, and storm safety information to our unhoused neighbors ahead of the blizzard warning.

For us, hot meals are only the beginning — they open the door to trust, connection, and real support that addresses the social determinants of health impacting our community every day.

This is what happens when compassion meets coordination.
This is community resilience in motion.

When the cold hits, community matters more than ever.

At Halal Food Connections, we believe a hot meal is only the beginning — an introduction to service, a moment to build trust, and a bridge to deeper support. Through every outreach, we work to extend care beyond food by connecting our neighbors to the resources that help address the real social determinants of health they face every day.

That’s why we are deeply grateful for the support of New York Disaster Interfaith Services (NYDIS), whose partnership helped us distribute critical blankets to our unhoused neighbors just as a blizzard warning approached. Because of this timely collaboration, we were able to provide warmth, essential supplies, and life-saving safety information to help our community prepare and stay safe during the severe winter conditions.

Partnerships like this turn compassion into action — and action into protection for those who need it most.

Thank you NYDIS for standing with us in service.

🌙 Ramadan Mubarak: First Jummah 🤲🏽

As we gather for the first Jummah (Friday Prayer) of this blessed month, we are reminded that Ramadan is not only a time for fasting — it is a time for compassion, generosity, and standing in service of our neighbors.

At Halal Food Connections, this sacred Friday renews our commitment to ensuring that every family can access dignified, halal, and culturally appropriate food throughout Ramadan and beyond.

The Prophet ﷺ taught that the best charity is that given in Ramadan — and every meal shared, every pantry stocked, and every hand extended strengthens our community.

✨ Join us this Ramadan:
• Support a pantry distribution
• Volunteer your time
• Share our mission
• Help us reach families in need

May this first Jummah bring barakah to your homes, acceptance to your fasts, and mercy to our entire community.
