1. Abundant mercy and blessings pour down in showers, on this very special Night of Power. Can you name it? 
2. Some join me cheerfully, some yawn and grumble, but I can maybe help your tummy not to rumble. What am I? 
3. I am an opening but also an end, Im best when shared with a friend. My first sip or taste is sublime, though only at Maghrib time!
4. Like a dessert after a meal, this night time prayer is surreal. It takes place only in Ramadan; you miss its sweetness when its gone. 
5. Clean and compact, fold me up or stuff me into your backpack. Use me often, many times a day, and you will always find your way. What am I?

Let's continue our journey of spreading kindness and light in this blessed month of Ramadan. Here are some more good deeds to inspire you:

• Send a handwritten card or message to a friend or family member, expressing your appreciation and love for them.
• Donate to a local charity or organization that helps those in need. 
• Visit an elderly neighbor or relative and spend some time chatting with them, listening to their stories, and offering your company.
• Offer to help someone with their chore.
• Make an effort to resolve any conflicts or misunderstandings with someone, apologize if necessary, and forgive others for any harm they may have caused you.

Remember, even the smallest act of kindness can have a big impact on someone's life. Let's strive to continue spreading love, compassion, and positivity wherever we go.
