Eating Habits in Ramadan

Eating Habits in Ramadan






By Kamal El-Mekki. The Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and
grant him peace) addressed his companions on the last day of Sha`ban,
saying, "Oh people! A great month has come over you; a blessed month; a
month in which is a night better than a thousand months; month in which
Allah has made it compulsory upon you to fast by day, and voluntary to
pray by night. Whoever draws nearer (to Allah) by performing any of the
(optional) good deeds in (this month) shall receive the same reward as
performing an obligatory deed at any other time, and whoever discharges
an obligatory deed in (this month) shall receive the reward of
performing seventy obligations at any other time. It is the month of
patience, and the reward of patience is Heaven. It is the month of
charity, and a month in which a believer's sustenance is increased.
Whoever gives food to a fasting person to break his fast, shall have his
sins forgiven, and he will be saved from the Fire of Hell, and he shall
have the same reward as the fasting person, without his reward being
diminished at all." [Narrated by Ibn Khuzaymah]
