Q & A

  • What does the term 'mokel' mean in the context of Ramadan?

    -The term 'mokel' comes from the Javanese language and refers to intentionally breaking one's fast secretly. It is often used in a joking context but is forbidden in Islam as it invalidates the fast and incurs sin.

  • Why is 'mokel' considered a serious issue in Islam?

    -Mokel is serious because it involves breaking the fast without a legitimate excuse. According to Islamic teachings, breaking the fast without justification not only invalidates the fast but also causes a person to lose the spiritual rewards of fasting and brings about sin.

  • What happens if a person breaks their fast without a valid reason during Ramadan?

    -If a person breaks their fast without a valid reason, they cannot make up for it by fasting continuously for years. This is mentioned in a hadith which emphasizes the importance of maintaining the fast properly.

  • What is the first tip to avoid 'mokel' during Ramadan?

    -The first tip is to strengthen your intention for fasting. It is important to fast for the sake of Allah and not because of peer pressure or external expectations. Fasting should be driven by spiritual devotion.

  • How can increasing acts of worship help avoid 'mokel'?

    -Increasing acts of worship, such as performing additional prayers, reading the Quran, and engaging in charitable deeds, helps keep you focused on the spiritual rewards of Ramadan. This strengthens your connection with Allah and keeps you away from distractions like 'mokel'.

  • What role does social media play in encouraging 'mokel'?

    -Social media, especially with content like mukbang videos (eating shows), can act as a temptation that distracts people from their fast. Watching such content can lead to the desire to break the fast, which is why avoiding such distractions is crucial.

  • What is the significance of the intention behind fasting in Ramadan?

    -The intention behind fasting is crucial because fasting is an act of worship. When a person fasts sincerely for the sake of Allah, they gain spiritual rewards. Fasting for the wrong reasons, like to show off or because of peer pressure, undermines the purpose and benefits of fasting.
