Actions are Accepted or Rejected - Shaykh Saalih al-Fawzaan - Rasheed Barbee

I have several external hard-drives at home storing many audios I have either recorded or edited over the years.  

After many years, I attached one particular drive to my computer, looking to see what I had.  

The first lecture I came across was this translated from the audio of Shaykh Saalih al-Fawzaan (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) by Rasheed Barbee (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) related to the the month of Ramadan and whether our actions are accepted or rejected.

The date of the download is the 15th of April 2013.  That is over 10 years ago. 

So, I decided to edit it a little and release it here today.  I don't know where it came from.  At the time it was downloaded I didn't really both referencing the source location.

May Allah enable it to be a source of benefit for Islam and the Muslims, Aameen!
