Being in seclusion was made beloved to the Prophet prior to his prophet-hood, this was known as laying the foundations as the early signs of prophet-hood. The Prophet would go to his wife Khadeejah (May Allah be pleased with her) and she would give him provisions enough to last for a long time for when he went to Cave Hira at the top of Mount Nur. He would sit there being in devout worship, and he would remember his Lord in this Cave at the top of Mount Nur which faced in the direction of the Ka’ba…
He ﷺ if he performed witr as 3 used to recite Surah al-‘Ala in the first unit of prayer (after al-Fatihah) because this soorah consists of mention of the worldly life and the Hereafter. In the second rak’ah he recites Surah Al-Kaafiroon because it consists of Tawheed of Worship, Tawheed al-Uloohiyah, and in the third he recites Surah Al-Ikhlaas.

Have concern for recitation of the Qur’aan in this noble month, together with pondering and reflecting upon it, taking admonition from its admonitions, heeding what it reprimands, understanding what is lawful and unlawful, understanding the promises and threats and that which is similar in the Noble Quran. And by way of this, the souls are purified and the hearts are illuminated.
From Al-Majmoo of Shaykh Rabee ibn Haadi Al-Madkhalee (Hafidahullah). Vol.15 pg.338
Shaykh Saalih Al-Fawzaan (Allah preserve him),
“Whoever reaches the Month of Ramadhan and Allah enables him to benefit in it, then verily Allah has blessed him with a tremendous blessing, (and there) is nothing comparable to it.”
Majaalis Ramadhan
If a person is put to trial and a calamity befalls him, what is the thing which will remove it from him? And how does a person turn to Allaah – The Mighty and Majestic – for protection, deliverance, help – whilst he is in this situation in which he is put to trial through these illnesses?
Through supplication; Allah will remove it from him through supplication. He invokes Allah to remove from him that which has afflicted him and to relieve him of it. Allah is Near [to all by his knowledge] Responsive [to the supplication of the one who supplicates to Him]. [Al-Hūd:61]
Secondly, if this calamity or affliction is due to a sin, then verily he repents to Allāh from this sin – from those sins which is the reason behind this punishment that came upon him.

Shaykh Ṣālih al-Fawzān (ḥafiẓahullāh) in explain of the following āyah said,
To any of you that chooses to go forward (by working righteous deeds), or to remain behind (by committing sins), (Al-Muddathir: 37)
This is an evidence that the servant possesses free will and choice; this is a refutation upon the Jabbāriyah, those who say that the servant has no free will or choice rather he is compelled in relation to his actions. They oppose the Mutazilah (1) (Qadariyyah – terms have become synonymous), for the Mutazilah go to extremes in affirming the will of mankind and negating the will of Allāh in contrast to the Jabbāriyah who go to extremes in affirming the will of Allāh and negating free will from mankind; therefore they are in opposite corners.
Meaning, put forth righteous action or remain behind with disbelief and disobedience. (2) Because righteous actions lead to Paradise and to Allāh, as for actions of disbelief and disobedience then verily they distance a person from Paradise and from Allāh. This is a clear proof that mankind possesses free will and they put forth (righteous actions) and remain behind (in disbelief and sin) as they will. They perform righteous actions as they will and commit sins as they will without being compelled, as the Jabbāriyah claim.
However, when Allāh knows that his servant comes forth towards good, He gives him success. And when Allāh knows his servant turns away from good, he forsakes him, leaves him to himself and to his punishment.
The He (subhānahu wa ta’āla) said,
Every person is a pledge for what he has earned, (38)
Whoever puts forth (good) or remains (in disbelief and sin), all of them will have their deeds presented to them on Yawm al-Qiyāmah.

(2) As is recorded from Ibn ʿAbbās and Qatādah as reported in Tafsīr at-Tabari
In the Shaykh’s Aqeedah class He said there’s a manhaj benefit we can extract from this hadeeth and it is that Ahlus Sunnah have a Qā’īdah:
Ahlus Sunnah unite upon the truth and do not merely gather numbers.
Tajmee’: is to gather numbers for the purpose of increasing numbers in your party and group.
Ijtimaa’ – is unity upon the truth; adhering and clinging to the truth.
This is a refutation against the likes of Ikhwan al-Muslimeen – those who have their “golden” principle or as Shaykh Uthaymeen (rahimahullah) called it, “Wooden principle”, saying “We unite upon that which we agree upon and excuse one another for what we disagree about”, gathering numbers is the goal for them.
The Prophet (sallallaahu alaihi wa salam) was on his way to a military expedition; do you need numbers for a military expedition, or not?
However, despite the need for numbers; the Prophet (sallallaahu alaihi wa salam) focused and gave concern to unity upon the truth and that which is pleasing to Allah.
We can see that Ahlul Bid’ah and people of desires clearly oppose this principle.
We ask Allah to reward the Shaykh for bringing this benefit and explaining to us.
و آخر دعوانا أن الحمد لله رب العالمين
The seerah teacher teaching at Markaz Ibnul Qayyim under the supervision of Shaykh Khalid, graduated from Faculty of Hadeeth Madeenah University 20 years ago, gave a really good advice regarding revising, reviewing notes and memorising.
He said once we attended a dawrah of shaykh Ubayd it lasted for one month and the schedule would be as follows
After Fajr – homework to be done by dhuhr
After Dhuhr – homework to be done by asr
After Asr – homework to be done by maghrib
After Maghrib – homework to be done by isha
After Isha – homework to be done for fajr
He said by end of the last lesson we went straight to bed due to tiredness.
But he said in this month we felt we took more benefit than the whole year at the jaamiah.
Why?
Because of the reviewing, revising, and the repetition.
There is huge benefit in repetition and revision for the student in solidifying his knowledge.
