Ramadhan

As we are in the month of Ramadhan, we should think about whom are we fasting for. Are we doing this because your mom or dad has asked you to do it or are you doing this for Allah (swt)? The important factor is when at Suhoor, that we should not fill up with all these foods such as Biriani and Jelabi, because what would the point be in fasting. There would be no challenge; there wouldn’t be no test.

Ramadan should also be all about asking forgiveness and starting a new chapter in your life. Remember repentance is far greater than asking forgiveness and a Muslim who sincerely asks repentance from Allah (swt) will have all his sins forgiven and will be admitted to heaven.

I would also like to say Ramadhan Mubarak to all my Muslim brothers and sisters.

Do you have any facts to back up what you stated?

Our test is to fast from Surise to sunset and to pray to the almighty.

I've not come across anything which says you shouldn't eat.. agreed that overeating isn't recommended, but there is nothing to suggest it is bad.

Ramadhan is about sacrifice and about worshipping our creator, it's a lot more than just fasting.

I never said that you should not eat at all, i said you should eat but not fill up your stomaches and watch the day go pass without any struggle.
