Virtues of Ramadan include the following: 1- Allah has made fasting this month the fourth pillar of Islam. 2- Allah revealed the Quran in this month. 3- Allah has blessed Ramadan with Laylat al-Qadr . 4- In this month, Allah opens the gates of Paradise and closes the gates of Hell. 5-Every night Allah has people whom He redeems from the Fire. 6- Fasting Ramadan is a means of expiation for the sins committed since the previous Ramadan.

The fact that the gates of Paradise are opened in Ramadan does not mean that the one who dies in Ramadan will enter Paradise without being brought to account.

Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “In Paradise, there is a gate called ar-Rayyan, through which those who used to fast will enter on the Day of Resurrection, and no one but they will enter it.”
