Comments TQur’an
Allah declared:I has
“Fasting is prescribedfor you, as it was pre-
scribed for those whocame before you,
that you may learnpiety.”Our beloved ProphetHadith
Muhammad esaid:
“Islam is built on fivethings: the Testimony
that there is no godexcept Allah and that
Muhammad is theMessenger of Allah,
the establishment ofthe Salah, the pay-
ment of the Zakah,the Fast of Ramadan,
and the Pilgrimage tothe Sacred House.”
“Every good actiondone by man shall be
multiplied by tenfoldup to seven hundred
fold. Allah, Who isGreat and Glorious,
says, ‘This is apartfrom fasting, which is
for Me, and thereward for which I will
supply; for a manwho renounces his
food and his desirefor My sake. A faster
has two joys, onewhen he breaks his
fast, and the otherwhen he meets his
Lord. The odour of afasting man’s mouth
is sweeter to Allahthan that of musk.
Fasting, moreover, isa form of protection’.”of Muharram
