Congratulations to the Islamic nation on the advent of the holy month of Ramadan

Allah has prescribed fasting for all the previous communities even if it was different in the way and the time of accomplishing it. Allah says:

)يا أيها الذين آمنوا كتب عليكم الصيام كما كتب على الذين من قبلكم لعلكم تتقون( [البقرة: 183]

(183) O you who have believed, decreed upon you is fasting as it was decreed upon those before you that you may become righteous -

Meaning of the verse:

﴾O believers! You have been prescribed As-Siyam [fasting] as It was prescribed for those who preceded you, so you will attain piety ﴿ [s. Al-Baqara (the Cow): c. 183]

From the second year of the Hegira, Allah عزّ وجلّ definitively prescribed the fasting of the month of Ramadan to humanity. It is an obligation for the adult Muslim. He must do it if he is a resident and not sick. In case he is ill, he is allowed to perform it later. This also applies to women who have given birth or are menstruating. Not sick and traveling, the adult Muslim has the choice of doing it during this month or postponing it to a later period. Allah has prescribed the fasting of the month of Ramadan from its beginning to its end. Its beginning is clearly fixed by the ocular vision of the lunar crescent of the month of Ramadân, or to complete the month of Sha‘bân (thirty days).

Allah has also determined the beginning of the day of fasting and its end by clearly specified limits,

Fasting during Ramadan means abstinence from all food or drink, including water and chewing gum, from dawn to sunset

Staying hungry and thirsty for an entire day is a powerful reminder of the millions of people around the world who experience this. Ramadan emphasizes the values of empathy and generosity. It is a time to think of those who are less fortunate than us and who do not have food and clean water all year round, to understand the suffering and pain of the poor and needy.



Allah tells us "(8) And they give food in spite of love for it[1813] to the needy, the orphan, and the captive,:" (Al-Insâne, quran 76/8)

It is therefore our duty to feed the fasters in the world, to take care of the sick, to provide for the needs of orphans and families affected by conflicts. Ramadan gives us a greater sense of responsibility towards others.


Ramadan, a test for some

Ramadan is a joyful time for most of us, but sadly not for everyone. Entire families under the yoke of hunger, thirst and disease are waiting for an outstretched hand that would allow them to take full advantage of this sacred month.




The Islamic religion is easy and not difficult
Muslims living in places where the sun never rises for MONTHS.

the prophet informs us that we should not follow the movement of the sun, but calculate the time as for normal regions

they can fast for Ramadan by following the sunrise and sunset times in Mecca.
The same applies to prayer times.



Some scholars say that in this case one should follow the timetables of Mecca or Medina, land of Revelation, while others suggest following the nearest "normal" region.

This applies to all obligations: the fulfillment of prayers, the payment of zakat and ramadan etc.

for the direction of the qibla, it is enough to have a compass ... not too complicated

Fasting during the month of Ramadan can be good for your health if it’s done correctly. When the body is starved of food, it starts to burn fat so that it can make energy. This can lead to weight loss. However, if you fast for too long your body will eventually start breaking down muscle protein for energy, which is unhealthy.


Dr Razeen Mahroof, an anaesthetist from Oxford, says there's a strong relationship between diet and health.

“Ramadan isn’t always thought of as being an opportunity to lose weight because the spiritual aspect is emphasised more generally than the health aspect," he says. "However, it’s a great chance to get the physical benefits as well.”

Source of energy during a fast


The changes that happen in the body during a fast depend on the length of the continuous fast. The body enters into a fasting state eight hours or so after the last meal, when the gut finishes absorbing nutrients from the food.


In the normal state, body glucose, which is stored in the liver and muscles, is the body’s main source of energy. During a fast, this store of glucose is used up first to provide energy. Later in the fast, once the glucose runs out, fat becomes the next source of energy for the body.

With a prolonged fast of many days or weeks, the body starts using protein for energy.


This is the technical description of what is commonly known as "starvation". It is clearly unhealthy and involves protein being released by the breakdown of muscle, which is why people who starve look very thin and become extremely weak.


However, you are unlikely to reach the starvation stage during Ramadan, because the fast is broken daily.

Gentle transition from glucose to fat

As the Ramadan fast only lasts from dawn till dusk, the body's energy can be replaced in the pre-dawn and dusk meals.


This provides a gentle transition from using glucose as the main source of energy, to using fat, and prevents the breakdown of muscle for protein.

Dr Mahroof says the use of fat for energy helps weight loss. It preserves the muscles and eventually reduces your cholesterol level. In addition, weight loss results in better control of diabetes and reduces blood pressure.

“A detoxification process also occurs, because any toxins stored in the body’s fat are dissolved and removed from the body,” says Dr Mahroof.


After a few days of the fast, higher levels of endorphins appear in the blood, making you more alert and giving an overall feeling of general mental wellbeing.

A balanced food and fluid intake is important between fasts. The kidneys are very efficient at maintaining the body’s water and salts, such as sodium and potassium. However, these can be lost through perspiration.


To prevent muscle breakdown, meals must contain enough energy food, such as carbohydrates and some fat.

“The way to approach your diet during fasting is similar to the way you should be eating outside Ramadan," says Dr Mahroof. "You should have a balanced diet, with the right proportion of carbs, fat and protein.”

Eid al-Fitr is held immediately after Ramadan,

Celebrations can last up to three days,

Muslims begin Eid day celebrations by partaking in the prayer service that takes place shortly after dawn, followed by a short sermon.

On their way to the prayer, which is traditionally held in an open area, Muslims recite takbeerat, praising God by saying “Allahu Akbar”, meaning “God is great”.

It is customary to eat something sweet prior to the prayer such as date-filled biscuits known as maamoul.

Eid al-Fitr is one of two major festivals celebrated by Muslims each year, the other being Eid al-Adha, which falls later in the summer and honours Abraham’s willingness to sacrifice his son to Allah.

It is seen as a spiritual celebration of Allah’s gift of strength and endurance. It is also a time for charity, known as Zakat al-Fitr, when people are expected to give and show kindness.

Fasting is forbidden on the day of Eid, in contrast to the 30 days that came before.


People congratulate one another as they head home after Eid prayers. They spend the day visiting relatives and neighbours, and accepting sweets as they move around from house to house.

Each country has traditional desserts and sweets that are prepared before Eid or on the morning of the first day. These foods range from special biscuits and bread to cakes and puddings.

Children, dressed in new clothes, are offered gifts and money to celebrate the joyous occasion.

In some countries, families visit graveyards to offer their respects to departed family members.

It is common for the capitals of Muslim-majority countries to decorate their cities with lights and hold festivities to commemorate the end of Ramadan.

Ramadan is a very special month for the Muslims, as in it Muslims around the world perform various types of worship, the most important of them being fasting. This fasting of Ramadan is one of the five pillars of Islam, mandatory upon all adolescents and adults who have the ability. Ramadan is also the month in which the first revelation came to the Prophet Muhammad, and thus is called the “Month of the Quran”.


God says in the Quran:
“Fasting has been prescribed for you as it has been prescribed for those before you in order that you become of the God-conscious.” (Quran 2:183)

During Ramadan, Muslims try to adhere to three types of worship - three of the five pillars of the Islamic faith.

The first is Sawm, ie fasting. Throughout the month, most Muslims refrain from eating or drinking between dawn and sunset.

The second is Zakat, which is charity - they are encouraged to give 2.5% of their annual income during Ramadan.

The third is salat, which is to pray. Muslims are encouraged to pray five times a day. Traditionally, many also attend additional communal prayers, called Taraweeh, which take place every evening.

Muslims are also encouraged to read the entire Quran during the month of Ramadan. This is a time of spiritual concentration and deep contemplation.

Why do Muslims fast?
The first fast is believed to have taken place in 624 CE, when the Prophet Muhammad persuaded the people of Medina to give up their food and donate it to the starving worshipers who followed him from Mecca.




The reasons for fasting are many. It is seen as a way to come closer and focus more clearly on one's relationship with God. It is a reminder of one's dependence on God for sustenance and - by experiencing hunger and thirst - a way to feel more compassionate towards those in need.

Fasting is also seen as a way to learn discipline and patience and to break bad habits, and some also see it as a way to cleanse the body of impurities.


How and when does fasting take place?
Observant Muslims fast from sunrise to sunset. This means that they must refrain from eating, drinking (including water), smoking and having sex during the day, which is particularly difficult if Ramadan takes place in the spring, when the days are longer.


You have to wake up early in the morning to stock up on food and water at the dawn meal called suhoor, and eat nothing for 16 hours. After the sun goes down, Muslims traditionally break their fast with friends and family at a ceremonial meal called iftar.

Long time ago before Rasulullah Shallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam had commended fast, the previous prophets had obtained an order to fast, accordance with Allah says:

Allah Subhanahu wata’ala says: “O ye who believe, has obliged upon you fasting as required to the people-the people who were before you, you may become the pious. (surah Al-Baqarah [2]:183

It means from this verse, fasting which required to Muslims, was also been done by the previous prophet followers. In fact, the prophets before Rasulullah Shallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam (Prophet Muhammad ) has also been implementing fast.

Muslim historian, Ibn Kathir, believed that the teaching of fasting had been around since the days of Adam and Eve. According to him, Prophet Adam ‘alayhissalam fasted for three days each month throughout the year. There is also a saying that Adam‘alayhissalam fasted on Muharram 10 as the gratitude due to meet with his wife, Eve, in Arafat. While others argued, Adam ‘alayhissalam fasted day and night when he descended from heaven by Allah.

Although in the Qur’an or hadith does not explain how a form of fasting by Adam and later generations, but there are indications that the religions brought by the apostles earlier were monotheistic religions that taught belief in to the Oneness of God (Allah).

As well as Prophet Noah (Nuuh ‘alayhissalam), fasted for three days each month throughout the year, such as fasting of Prophet Adam ‘alayhissalam, he ordered his people to worship Allah and fasted for months when their lives were floating around in a boat floating in the middle of the ocean due to severe flooding, and continued to repent to Allah.

Prophet Ibrahim ‘alayhissalam is also known for his love of fast, especially when he wanted to receive revelation from Allah, which was then used as the suhuf Ibrahim. Fasting in Abrahamic faiths held by Ismail alayhissalam , son of Ibrahim’s famous devout worship, and fasting followed by Ishaq Ibrahim alayhissalam (Abraham son of Sarah).

Prophet Ya’qub ‘alayhissalam known as parents and apostles who liked fast, especially for the safety of her sons.

The most popular commands of fasting today is fasting as the Prophet Daud ‘alayhisalam (David). His fasting is quite special because Prophet Daud ‘alayhissalam was not only a soldier, but also a king and a war leading expert. The fasting is one day of fasting, not fasting on the next day. In fact, fasting of Prophet Daud ‘alayhissalam is apparently lasted until Prophet Solomon (Sulaiman‘alayhissalam), his son, and prophets afterward. Implementation of fasting was since the time of Prophet Ibrahim AS. And until now, the followers of Prophet Muhammad SAW remained fasting like Prophet Daud ‘alayhissalam.

The Prophet said to me, “You fast daily all the year and pray every night all the night?” I replied in the affirmative. The Prophet said, “If you keep on doing this, your eyes will become weak and your body will get tired. He who fasts all the year is as he who did not fast at all. The fasting of three days (a month) will be equal to the tasting of the whole year.” I replied, “I have the power for more than this.” The Prophet said, “Then fast like the fasting of Daud ‘alayhissalam who used to fast on alternate days (day after day) and would never flee from the battle field, on meeting the enemy. (Narrated by: ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr bin Al-‘As: Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 31 :: Hadith 200)



Commands fasting for people of Moses (Musa ‘alayhissalam) is a series of obligations that required fasting on people of Prophet Muhammad, as in Surah Al-Baqarah: 183.

Fasting performed by the Prophet Moses ((Musa ‘alayhissalam ) along with his people is much more severe than by Prophet Muhammad people. They were required to fast for 40 days and 40 nights.

In a narration also found that the Jews fasted on every 10th of Muharram, as gratitude for the salvation of Moses from Pharaoh pursuit. So Rasulullah Shallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam also commanded his people to fast on the 9th and 10th of Muharram, known as Ashura fasting.

Fasting during Prophet ‘Isaa alayhis salaam era restricted several activities such as speaking which was restricted at the time of the birth of Prophet Isaa ‘alayhissalam. Prophet ‘Isaa ‘alayhis salaam also spent forty days in the same way and only then did the fountainhead of wisdom flowed out of his heart and tongue.

It means: “… Verily I have vowed a fast to the Merciful, then I’m not going to talk to human being on this day. (surah Maryam [19]: 26)

Knowing past history of fasting is important to note that now days as Muslims, we fast by following Rasulullah Shallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam, the last Prophet, so we fasting like Rasulullah Shallallahu ‘alayhi wasallam fasted.

The night of Al-Qadr is the most virtuous night of the year. Allah says in the Qur’an: “We revealed it on the night of power [that is, Al-Qadr]. What will tell you what the night of power is? It is better than a thousand months.” Any action therein, for example, reciting the Qur’an, making remembrance of Allah, and so on, is better than acting for one thousand months which do not contain the night of Al-Qadr. It is preferred to seek this night:





It is preferred to seek this night during the last ten nights of Ramadan, as the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, strove his best in seeking it during that time. We have already mentioned that the Prophet would stay up during the last ten nights, would wake his wives, and then would remain apart from them to worship.




Scholars hold different opinions as to the night, which is the night of Al-Qadr.
Which night is Laylat ul Qadr?



Scholars hold different opinions as to the night, which is the night of Al-Qadr. Some are of the opinion that it is the 21st, some say the 23rd, others say the 25th and still others say it is the 29th. Some say that it varies from year to year but it is always among the last ten nights of Ramadan. Most scholars, though, vouch for the 27th. Ahmad recorded, with a Authentic chain, from Ibn Umar that the Prophet said: “He who likes to seek that night should do so on the 27th. ‘Ubayy ibn Kab said: By Allah, and there is no god but Him, it is during Ramadan-and He swore to that-and by Allah, I know what night it is. It is the night during which the Prophet ordered us to make prayers, the night of the 27th. Its sign is that the sun rises in the morning white and without any rays.” (Related by Muslim, Abu Dawud, Ahmad, and by At-Tirmidhi who called it Authentic.)



Praying and making supplications during the night of Al-Qadr:



Al-Bukhari and Muslim record from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: “Whoever prays during the night of Al-Qadr with faith and hoping for its reward will have all of his previous sins forgiven.”




As to the supplication during the night of Al-Qadr, `A’ishah said: “I asked the Messenger of Allah: ‘O Messenger of Allah, if I know what night is the night of qadr, what should I say during it?’ He said: ‘Say: O Allah, You are pardoning and You love to pardon, so pardon me.’ ” (Related by Ahmad, Ibn Majah, and by At-Tirmidhi, who called it Authentic.)
