Problem- Playing Cricket during Ramadan

:salam2:

Ramadhan comes once in a year and being a muslim we believe that Allah SWT wrote a specific period for us in this world and after that we’ll be returned to HIM. Moroever we don’t know when our times up. So better u go 4 fasting first as in Qur’an, Allah SWT said in difference ayats:

Surat Al Mu’minun 23:115 "Then did you think that We created you uselessly and that to Us you would not be returned?"

Surat Al Baqarah 2:183 “O you who have believed, decreed upon you is fasting as it was decreed upon those before you that you may become righteous -”

Surat Al Baqarah 2:184 “[Fasting for] a limited number of days. So whoever among you is ill or on a journey [during them] - then an equal number of days [are to be made up]. And upon those who are able [to fast, but with hardship] - a ransom [as substitute] of feeding a poor person [each day]. And whoever volunteers excess - it is better for him. But to fast is best for you, if you only knew”

So my advice that don’t excempt ur fasting on any other day. Better u fast and go for play or whatever u wanna do.

am also sportsman and in the Ramadhan month we play ‘football’ after asr till Maghrib and on weekend we start after dhuhar prayer and finish before maghrib. In the meanwhile i do recite some surah of Qur’an repeatedly or sometime i repeats Zikar’s (hamd-o-sanaa). I never felt thirsty and this act made my more strengthen in my body.
