If there’s a Muslim corrects you about a bid'ah (innovation) you have done, and you keep giving them excuses logically ; then the first thing you MUST to do is question your heart that you are following your logic & desire — OR — youre following the Deen.
Remember, the religion you are upon is NOT your religion. It’s Allāh’s religion. So follow His & His Messenger’s rules. DO NOT mix your cultures (when it contradicts with Islam) with religion because cultures WILL NOT help you in akhirah.
sometimes it takes years before you fully understand the reality of a situation you were in, for you to look back and see it for what it truly was

Abu Bakr al-Arabi said:
❝There is no true methodology except the methodology of the Companions - May Allah ﷻ be pleased with them all.❞
[Al-Qabas Fee Sharh al-Muwatta, (1/217) | Translated By Abbas Abu Yahya Miraath al-Anbiyya]
اللَّهُمَّ إنِّي أسْألُكَ عِيشَةً نَقِيَّةً، ومِيتَةً سَوِيَّةً، ومَرَدّاً غَيْرَ مَخْزٍ ولا فاضِحٍ.
O Allāh, I ask You for a pure life, a peaceful death, and a return (to You) that is neither disgraceful nor shameful
I never knew heartbreak until I disobeyed You and I never knew happiness until I obeyed You.

Why is it called "Ramadhan"?
The word "Ramadhan" (رمضان) comes from the word "Ramad" (رمض) which literally means "burning".
Imam Qurtubi said :
❝It was named "Ramadhan" because it burns the sins of people with good deeds.❞
[Tafsir al-Qurtubi, vol. 2, page 271]
