right back atchya! Hows everyone coping. Im finding it easy. I feel good and actually think that I can aviod bad temptations, but its still early

Yeah, We break our fast with dates and water too back in KSA, then pray maghrib, then start the main meal

I swear im getting fat who said fasting will help you lose weight.

 

[Asma]

[la_dynamite86]

Yeah...that's true! If you don't eat too much during Iftar. Because I know some girls, where the opposite comes out.

to those of you who don't actually know,there's more to ramadan than just fasting.

during the fasting period,followers are not supposed to use vulgarities,touch members of the opposite sex indecently or even be angry at someone/somthing.it's like the cleansing of a soul.

what happens if you accidentally break your fast? (Not by eating of course, since that's a bit silly... but getting angry or swearing)

 

[nosubstitute959]

To the best of my knowledge: If you break it by accidentally eating or drinking, then you can ask for forgiveness and continue on for the rest of the day as if you're still fasting. If you get angry or swear, then you need to make that day up after Ramadan.

isn't it easier to accidentally swear or get angry, than it is to accidentally eat?

Yes..... It helps a lot of people get over swearing and the like, which is something good....

I guess there's no harm if a person accidentaly eats... we're not trying to pure ourselves from our thirst or hunger. However, Ramadan is a form of purification from what's considered "not good" like swearing..etc. by promoting more self control which we want to last even after Ramadhan.

who accidentally eats? how actually?

a person is allowed to take a medicine if he is ill ..

Yes.. it does happen.
For example, at school I'll be walking to class talking with someone and i'll see those drinking water fountain thingies and i'd drink spme water forgetting that i'm fasting. It's not uncommon at all... i'm sure you experienced something like that...

These situations are quite funney actually... if you do drink accidentaly, you have people starring at you in shock and you'll be like "what are you looking at?"
then of course it dawns on you :embarass: and everyone starts laughing...

....

and yes Amr, if you're sick and you need medication, then it's recommended that you break your fast and just make up that day sometime after ramadan..
