crack smoke goes into your mouth - sin comes out of your hands - because the thing that went into your mouth effected your mind and caused you to "sin"


one who cannot control what goes into the mouth has no self control

fast until a slice of cake looks like a block of shit to you

That sounds like the wrong reason to fast.

I'm guilty of that... Except in Ramadan when I seem to control myself the best and never miss a day. One month until Ramadan.

i had a block of cake that same day i posted that - it didn't look or taste like shit - i just feel like shit now - should have gotten some fruit instead

LMAO I usually question why I eat so much and generally regret it after I do it

Lol at the people in this thread wasting the opportunity to eat. Are you people aware that some people are actually straving right now around the world? Some people are lucky to get a three meals a day (prisoners get three hot meals a day). Some have to settle for one meal a day, especially the kids. Schools provide two meals a day then they go home and have NOTHING to eat. People are going to sleep hungry. Whatever! Food is food. It shouldn't be wasted on bullshit religions.

fasting is a must to become empty,,, all sages do this in tere own way! tere are 2 wayz, so ive been told , 1 mentaly and 2 physicaly.

How can you waste food, if your not taking any? Your not killing anything and your not cooking anything....how is that waste?

Summa atimmus-syaama 'ilal-layl...

Observe Fast till night...

Muslims follow the Qur'an according to the way the Prophet Muhammad followed it, as he was a manifestation of it's teachings. If making rules was a 'free-for-all' then the Deen would be a mess. All Muslims are agreed that the breaking of fast is at Maghrib time.

I brush my teeth a few times a day when I'm fasting. Some Muslims choose not to, but thats down to difference of opinion. You can even taste food on your tongue if you are a chef, not swallowing it.

'Always munching on something' isnt good for us bro, gotta give the stomach time to digest whatever is in there!

Also if someone was to start practising Islam, they are not expected to be perfect and lose all their bad habits straight away.

Self improvement is a steady process. Some walk, some run some crawl. The Qur'an was steadily revealed throughout 23 years after all.

PEACE

[Mumm Ra]

lol - eat as much as you can, get fat, because some people are starving

his last sentence is ironic too...its actually not being wasted by people who fast

You're supposed to get food like normal when fasting then give it to the poor.

You have to empty the mind.
