Re: Roza = detoxification of the body...
That is my philosophy all the time. Why are we so much worried about finding the worldy benefit behind every Ibaadat. Roza is detoxification, Namaaz is good exercise. Isn't the justification that it is commanded by Allah (SWT) enough.
BTW, Shahadat (martyr'ism) is very bad for health, yet still one of the Allah's favorite deed (if done right, for right reasons)
it is for ppl like you will never let islam come out as the most modern relegion of the world.. ofcourse
it is the most modern and most practical relegion there is ..
how many non believers can u convince by saying 'oh because allah has ordered us to fast..'
Now this non-believer will never know that Allah has put all the ibadaats for the benefit of us.. not for himself. We make wuzoo so we keep clean etc etc..
Its the best way of life ...
