*WHAT WE SHOULD KNOW ABOUT FASTING*
1. When the month of Ramadan starts, the gates of paradise are opened, the gates of hell are closed and the devils are chained.
(Al-Bukhari 1898, Muslim 1079)
2. Every Muslim must make intention before fajr to fast (for an obligatory fast). Intention is not uttered. It is determination in the mind and should not be done with audible wordings.
(Al Bukhari 1, Abu Dawood 2454)
3. Fasting is NOT just abstaining from eating and drinking, it is also refraining from vain speech and foul language. If one is verbally abused, he should say 'I am fasting'
(Muslim 1151)
4. Taking the pre-dawn meal (Sahuur) is a BLESSING. Every Muslim is expected to take the meal EVEN if with a mouthful of water.
(Al Bukhari 1923, Ahmad 44)
5. It is the Sunnah to DELAY the Sahuur and HASTEN to break the fast as soon as the sun sets.
(Al Bukhari 1921, Muslim 1099)
6. If one hears the call to prayer WHILE still eating the Sahuur, he should not stop eating, rather he should finish his food.
(Abu Dawud 2350)
7. Whosoever does not give up speaking falsely and acting on lies and evil actions, Allah (Sub-haanahu wata'aala) does not care for his abstaining from eating and drinking.
(Al Bukhari 1903)
8. The Prophet of Allah used to break his fast BEFORE magrib prayer with 3 fresh dates, if there were no fresh dates, he would eat 3 dry dates, if there were no dry dates, he would take 3 draughts of water.
(Abu Dawud 2349)
9. Whoever provides a fasting person something with which to break his fast, he will earn the same reward as the person without the person's reward being reduced.
(At-tirmidhi 807)
10. It is PERMISSIBLE for a fasting person to bath or pour water over his head to relief him of the hotness of the sun or of thirst.
(Tirmidhi)
11. If somebody eats or drinks FORGETFULLY while fasting, he should complete his fast, for what he has eaten or drunk been given to him by Allah.
(Al Bukhari 1933, Muslim 1155).
May Allāh (Sub-haanahu wata'aala) allow us to reach Ramadān in good health and give us the ability to observe fasting throughout the blessed month. Ameen
