Shaykh Yūnus Jawnpūri رحمه الله spent the entire month of Ramadan according to his normal routine.

Hashim (his khādim) says that he kept all the fasts, performed all the tarawīh, maintained his ma’mulāt (routine) of reciting the Qur’an and the majlis of Dhikr bi’l-Jahr (audible dhikr). In the last ten days, there were 110 Ulama and murīdīn (disciples in the spiritual path) who came to spend time with Shaykh.

He was in good spirits on Eid day as well. Mufti Abrar from Canada says that a friend of his, when he brought some food for Shaykh, texted Abrar saying, “I’m here with Shaykh. Do you want to talk to him? I can have you FaceTime.” Abrar said, “Will he talk on FaceTime?” The friend replied that hopefully he will. Abrar reluctantly said, “Go on then.”
