Why We Fast ?Allah's Messenger (sallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam) said: "There is not a servant who
fasts a day in the way of Allah, except that Allah removes his face from the
fire by the distance of seventy years because of that"
"Fasting is a shield with
which a servant protects himself from the fire" Abu Umaamah, radiyallaahu 'anu, said:
"I said: 'O Messenger of Allah
tell me of an action by which I may enter paradise.' He said : 'Take to fasting,
there is nothing like it'." Abu Hurairah, radiyallaahu 'anuh, said: Allah's Messenger (sallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam) said:
"Allah said that all of the
actions of the sons of Adam are for him except for fasting, for it is for Me and
I will recompense it. Fasting is a shield, and when it is the day when one of
you fasts, then let him not speak indecently or argue, and if anyone abuses or
seeks to fight him then let him say, 'I am fasting'. By Him in whose Hand is
the soul of Muhammad, the smell coming from the mouth of a fasting person is
better with Allah than the smell of musk. For the fasting person there are two
times joy; when he breaks his fast he is happy and when he meets his Lord he is
happy due to his fasting" Allah's Messenger (sallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam) said:
"Fasting and the Qur'an
intercede for the servant on the Day of Resurrection. Fasting will say: 'O My
Lord I prevented him from food and desires so accept my intercession for him,
and the Qur'an will say: I prevented him from sleep at night, so accept my
intercession for him, so their intercessions will be accepted" |
