عن سهل بن سعد الساعدي، أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال:” لا يزال الناس بخير ما عجلوا الفطر ‏"‌‏.صحيح البخاري‏ ومسلم حديث ١٩٥٧ - ١٠٩٨

Narrated Sahl bin Sa`d: Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him) said, “The people will remain on the right path as long as they hasten the breaking of the fast." Sahih al-Bukhari 1957 In-book reference : Book 30, Hadith 64 Sahih Muslim 1098a (https://sunnah.com/muslim:1098a) In-book reference : Book 13, Hadith 60

وفي تعجيل الإفطار إتباع هدي النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم والعمل بسنته، فقد كان صلوات الله وسلامه عليه يعجل الإفطار….بل إن تعجيل الإفطار من أخلاق الأنبياء كما قال أبو الدرداء رضي الله عنه: "ثلاث من أخلاق النبوة تعجيل الإفطار، وتأخير السحور، ووضع اليمين على الشمال في الصلاة." رواه الطبراني في" الكبير" كما في "مجمع الزوائد" (2/150). وفي تعجيل الإفطار مخالفة اليهود والنصارى الذين نهينا عن التشبه بهم في عباداتنا وعاداتنا، قال النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم: "لا يزال الدين ظاهراً ما عجل الناس الفطر لأن اليهود والنصارى يؤخرون" أخرجه أحمد (27218)، أبو داوود (2353)، وحسنه الألباني في "صحيح أبي داوود" (2063). وفي تعجيل الإفطار تيسير على الناس، وبعد عن صفة التنطع والغلو في الدين، وقد امتثل هذا الأدب خير القرون صحابة رسول الله ﷺ، قال البخاري رحمه الله: "وأفطر أبو سعيد الخدري حين غاب قرص الشمس." فتح الباري (4/196) وقال عمرو بن ميمون الأزدي رحمه الله: "كان أصحاب محمد ﷺ أسرع الناس إفطارا وأبطأهم سحوراً." أخرجه عبدالرزاق في" المصنف" (4/226) قال في "فتح الباري" (4/199) إسناده صحيح. الإسلام سؤال وجواب ()

مِنَ المَعلومِ أنَّ الخَيرَ كُلَّ الخَيرِ في اتِّباعِ هَدْيِ النَّبيِّ صلَّى اللهُ عليه وسلَّمَ، والشَّرَّ كلَّ الشرِّ يَأتي مِن الابتداعِ في الدِّينِ، ولَمَّا كان الصِّيامُ مِن أجلِّ العِباداتِ وأعظَمِ القُرُباتِ، كان لِزامًا على المُسلِمِ أنْ يَلتزِمَ هَدْيَ النَّبيِّ صلَّى اللهُ عليه وسلَّمَ فيه الَّذي حَثَّ على تَعجيلِ الفِطرِ. وفي هذا الحديثِ يَحكي سَهلُ بنُ سَعدٍ الأنصاريُّ رَضيَ اللهُ عنهما أنَّ رسولَ اللهِ صلَّى اللهُ عليه وسلَّمَ أخبَرَ أنَّه لا يَزالُ المسلِمون على خَيرٍ وحقٍّ وهدًى مِن اللهِ، مُتمسِّكينَ بسُنَّةِ نَبيِّهم، واقفينَ عندَ حُدودِه، غيرَ مُبدِّلينَ ولا مُغيِّرين؛ ما عَجَّلوا بالإفطارِ مِن صَومِهم عندَ غُروبِ شَمسِ يَومِهم مُباشَرةً، وإنَّما كان تَعجيلُ الفِطرِ خَيرًا؛ لأنَّه أحفَظُ للقوَّةِ، وأرفَعُ للمَشقَّةِ، وأوفَقُ للسُّنةِ، وأبعَدُ عن الغُلوِّ والبِدعةِ، وليَظهَرَ الفرْقُ بيْن الزَّمانينِ في حكْمِ الشَّرعِ. وفي الحديثِ: بَركةُ اتِّباعِ السُّنَّةِ وبَقاءُ الخيرِ في النَّاسِ بسَببِ اتِّباعِهم للسُّنةِ، وأنَّ فَسادَ الأمورِ يَتعلَّقُ بتَغيُّرِ السُّنةِ، وأنَّ مُخالفةَ السُّنَّةِ في ذلِك كالعَلَمِ على فَسادِ الأُمورِ. الدرر السنية ()

…because by doing so they are preserving the Sunnah. If they do not do this and they delay the break of the fast, then this will be a proof that goodness has been removed from them for abandoning the Sunnah of the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) upon which he has left his Ummah and to which he has ordered them to adhere.

Fasting Monday and Thursday

The Prophet (ﷺ) said;

‘‘Deeds are shown (to Allāh) on Mondays and Thursdays, and I like my deeds to be shown when I am fasting.”

The Messenger of Allāh (ﷺ) said:

Indeed your Lord said: ‘Every good deed is rewarded with ten of the same up to seven hundred times over, except for fasting. Fasting is for Me, and I shall reward for it.’

It was said by Imam al-Hasan al-Basri (رحمه الله);

“The best season to a believer is the winter, its nights are long for those who wish to pray, and its days are short for those who wish to fast.”

[al-Tirmidhi, 747; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Targheeb, 1041]

Fasting on ‘Ashura (10th Of Muharram)

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَـٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

(In the Name of Allah—the Most Compassionate, Most Merciful).

Introduction

We are in Muharram, the first month of the Hijri Calendar, 1445 A.H. It is a sacred month and the Prophet ﷺ used to fast a lot in this month. One of these days that the Prophet ﷺ used to fast is the Day of ‘Ashura (the 10th Day of Muharram).

عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ

مَا رَأَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَتَحَرَّى صِيَامَ يَوْمٍ فَضَّلَهُ عَلَى غَيْرِهِ إِلا هَذَا الْيَوْمَ يَوْمَ عَاشُورَاءَ وَهَذَا الشَّهْرَ يَعْنِي شَهْرَ رَمَضَانَ

‏رواه البخاري ٢٠٠٦ ‏

It was narrated that Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him) said:

I never saw the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) so keen to make sure he fasted any day and preferring it over another except this day,the day of ‘Ashoora’, and this month – meaning Ramadaan.

Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 2006.

Why did the Prophet ﷺ fast on ‘Ashura

عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ

قَدِمَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْمَدِينَةَ فَرَأَى الْيَهُودَ تَصُومُ يَوْمَ عَاشُورَاءَ فَقَالَ مَا هَذَا ؟ قَالُوا : هَذَا يَوْمٌ صَالِحٌ ، هَذَا يَوْمٌ نَجَّى اللَّهُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ عَدُوِّهِمْ فَصَامَهُ مُوسَى، قَالَ فَأَنَا أَحَقُّ بِمُوسَى مِنْكُمْ فَصَامَهُ وَأَمَرَ بِصِيَامِهِ

رواه البخاري ٢٠٠٤

Ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him) said:

The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) came to Madeenah and saw the Jews fasting on the day of ‘Ashoora’.

He said, “What is this?”

They said, “This is a good day, this is the day when Allaah saved the Children of Israel from their enemy and Moosa fasted on this day.”

He said, “We are closer to Moosa than you.” So he fasted on this day and told the people to fast.

Narrated by al-Bukhaari (2004)

Virtues for fasting on ‘Ashura

قال رسول صلى الله عليه وسلم

صِيَامُ يَوْمِ عَرَفَةَ أَحْتَسِبُ عَلَى اللَّهِ أَنْ يُكَفِّرَ السَّنَةَ الَّتِي قَبْلَهُ وَالسَّنَةَ الَّتِي بَعْدَهُ وَصِيَامُ يَوْمِ عَاشُورَاءَ أَحْتَسِبُ عَلَى اللَّهِ أَنْ يُكَفِّرَ السَّنَةَ الَّتِي قَبْلَهُ

رواه مسلم ١١٦٢

The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:

Fasting the day of ‘Arafah I hope Allaah will expiate thereby for the year before it and the year after it, and fasting the day of ‘Ashoora’ I hope Allaah will expiate thereby for the year that came before it.

Narrated by Muslim, 1162

How to fast ‘Ashura

It is recommended when fasting ‘Ashura to also fast Taasua’ (the 9th Day of Muharram).

عن عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قال

حِينَ صَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمَ عَاشُورَاءَ وَأَمَرَ بِ��ِيَامِهِ قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهُ يَوْمٌ تُعَظِّمُهُ الْيَهُودُ وَالنَّصَارَى فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَإِذَا كَانَ الْعَامُ الْمُقْبِلُ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ صُمْنَا الْيَوْمَ التَّاسِعَ قَالَ فَلَمْ يَأْتِ الْعَامُ الْمُقْبِلُ حَتَّى تُوُفِّيَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ

رواه مسلم ١١٣٤

‘Abd-Allaah ibn ‘Abbaas (may Allaah be pleased with him) said:

When the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) fasted on the day of ‘Ashoora and told the people to fast, they said, “O Messenger of Allaah, this is a day that is venerated by the Jews and Christians.” The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said, “Next year, if Allaah wills, we will fast on the ninth day.” But by the time the following year came, the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) had passed away.

Narrated by Muslim, 1134.

Important Note:

Fasting Taasua and ‘Ashura is recommended but not obligatory.

This year Taasua and ‘Ashura will be on Thursday 27th July and Friday 28th July, 2023.*

* Dates may vary based on local moonsighting.

Whoever gives Iftar to one who is fasting will have a reward like his, without that detracting from the fasting person's reward in the slightest.

[catzeyes-19]

[wordofprophet]

The Prophet (ﷺ) said: Whoever has dried dates, then let him break the fast with that, and whoever does not. then let him break the fast with water, for indeed water is purifying."

▪️Dua for Breaking the Fast▪️

Our Shaykh, Abu Abdillah Muhammad ba Jamaal -may Allaah preserve him- was asked:

📥 *Question:*

Is there a specific dua for when one is breaking his fast?

📤 Answer:

There has come some hadiths that mention that, like the hadith:

"ﺫَﻫَﺐَ ﺍﻟﻈَّﻤَﺄُ ﻭَﺍﺑْﺘَﻠَّﺖِ ﺍﻟْﻌُﺮُﻭﻕُ ﻭَﺛَﺒَﺖَ ﺍﻷَﺟْﺮُ ﺇِﻥْ ﺷَﺎءَ ﺍﻟﻠَّﻪُ ‏"‏

Which translates to:

"Thirst has gone, the arteries are moist, and the reward is sure, if Allah wills."

But this hadith is not authentic. So it is not correct to say this dua when one is breaking his fast. If one intends to eat after fasting he simply says, Bismillah. And after he has finished eating he says, Alhamdulilah.

And if Allah has allowed the servant to complete his fast this leads him to his happiness at the time of him breaking his fast. As the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The servant has two happinesses from fasting, one at the time of breaking his fast and one when he meets his Lord.

And Allah knows best.

﷽

REMINDER FOR SUNNAH FASTING!

Tomorrow is Monday. Please, endeavour to fast and remind others. Fasting twice a week (i.e Monday and Thursday) helps keep our faith strong and our desires under control. It also keeps us more conscious of Allāh (Sub-haanahu wata'aala). This is the formula for success given to us by our beloved prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam).

✔️'Ā'ishah (R.A.) said, "The Messenger of Allāh (Blessings and Peace be upon him) used to take care to fast on Mondays and Thursdays." (at-Tirmidhi)

➖The Messenger of Allāh (Blessings and Peace be upon him) said, "Deeds of people are presented (to Allāh) on Mondays and Thursdays. So I like that my actions be presented while I am fasting." (Tirmidhi)

➖"The prophet (Blessings and Peace be upon him) was keen to fast every Monday and Thursday." (Tirmidhi)

➖The prophet (Blessings and Peace be upon him) said, "He who loves my Sunnah has loved me, and he who loves me will be with me in Paradise." (at-Tirmidhi)

✔️Fasting is only 1% of not eating and drinking, the rest of the 99% is bringing your heart and soul close to Allāh (Sub-haanahu wata'aala).

➖Allāh (Sub-haanahu wata'aala) says: "Every good deed of the son of Ādam is for him except FASTING, for it is for me and I will reward it." (Bukhari and Muslim)

HEALTH BENEFITS OF FASTING

➖It gives the digestive system a rest.

➖It can help you beat addiction.

➖It is a great way to start a healthy diet.

➖It nomalizes insulin sensitivity.

➖It can reduce your hunger levels.

➖It promotes the detoxification process.

➖It whitens the eyes and clears the complexion.

اعلم أن المؤمن يجتمع له في شهر رمضان جهادان لنفسه: جهاد بالنهار على الصيام، وجهاد بالليل على القيام، فمن جمع بين هذين الجهادين ووفى بحقوقهما وصبر عليهما وفّى أجره بغير حساب.

[ ابن رجب | لطائف المعارف ]

Know that in the month of Ramadhan, the believer has two types of Jihad of the Nafs (self): Jihad (striving) during the day upon fasting and Jihad (striving) during the night upon Qiyam (night prayers). Whoever combines together these two Jihaad, fulfills their *rights* and is patient upon them, will receive its reward without account. (Lataa'iful Ma'arif, by Ibn Rajab)

PROPHET TODOS List before sleeping

Hadith Lesson: Perform ablution before sleeping like that for the prayer. Lie on your right side when going to bed. Recite the supplication: “Allahumma aslamtu wajhi ilaika…” (O Allah! I surrender to you…) Entrust all your affairs to Allah and depend on Him for blessings, with hope and fear. Acknowledge there is no fleeing from Allah and no place of safety except with Him. Profess belief in…

[theaishamuslima]

as a women its common that we miss fasts due to our periods and winter time is a great time to make them up as magrib is so early

or even if you just to fast because you feel like it or if you are struggling with something in life whether it be depression or over eating, fasting is a good option

wake up a little earlier for fajr or if you pray tahajjud wake up 30 ish minutes before fajr and do wudu, have some water and something to eat

i find it hard to eat at that time so dates and grapes work for me, do your intention:

Allalumma asumu laka fagh fir-li ma qad-damtu wa-ma akh-khartu

O Allah! I shall fast for Your sake, so forgive my future and past sins.

i know there are certain days where you shohld fast but i prefer weekends as i work mon-fri

inshallah when ramadan comes around allah will give us all the strength to fast whilst working etc

[noblemarriage]

Whoever does not give up false statements, and evil deeds, and speaking bad words to others, Allah is not in need of his (fasting) leaving his food and drink.
