Takeaways
- π Puasa (fasting) is a mandatory practice for every Muslim, as stated in the Qur'an (Surah Al-Baqarah 2:183), aimed at increasing faith and piety.
- π The main goal of fasting is to develop taqwa (God-consciousness) and to cultivate self-discipline through abstaining from food, drink, and other indulgences from dawn till sunset.
- π Fasting, or 'al-imsak', involves refraining from specific activities like eating, drinking, and marital relations during the daylight hours in Ramadan.
- π The four essential elements of fasting include: intention (niyyah), abstaining from certain actions (al-imsak), being a mature, responsible Muslim (mukallaf), and adhering to the prescribed time frame from dawn (Fajr) to sunset (Maghrib).
- π Niyyah (intention) is crucial for fasting; it must be made in the heart before starting the fast. Some scholars, like the Maliki school, allow a single intention for the entire month of Ramadan.
- π Eating sahur (pre-dawn meal) is highly recommended as it brings blessings and helps provide energy throughout the day of fasting, as per the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
- π The importance of fasting extends beyond mere abstinence; it is a spiritual discipline aimed at attaining closeness to Allah, purifying the soul, and increasing oneβs level of piety.
- π Ramadan fasting is a type of worship (ibadah) that holds a special reward from Allah, with the promise of forgiveness and the opportunity for entry into paradise via the gate of Ar-RayyΔn.
- π There are different types of fasting: obligatory (like Ramadan and Kafara fasting), voluntary (such as fasting on Mondays and Thursdays), and forbidden fasting (such as fasting on the days of Eid and during the days of Tashriq).
- π Fasting is not only a physical exercise but also a way to earn Allah's reward, with fasting specifically mentioned in a Hadith Qudsi as being for Allah alone, with a special reward that cannot be measured.
- π The ultimate purpose of fasting is to develop a stronger relationship with Allah, purify the heart, and become one of the Muttaqin (pious and righteous individuals).
