Virtues Of Ramadan: #4

#4: Observing Ramadan Sincerely Eradicates Your Past Sins

One of the most important virtues of Ramadan is that fasting sincerely for Allah eradicates our sins. This is what is understood from the ḥadīth of the Prophet ṣallā Allāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam, as reported by Imām al-Bukhārī and Muslim from the narration of Sayyidinā Abī Hurayrah raḍiya Allāhu ‘anhu:

“Whoever fasts Ramadan out of faith and in the hope of reward (from Allah), his previous sins will be forgiven.”

Remember, the only condition attached to this, is to do it out of faith (sincerity) and in the hope of its reward only from Allah.

As Good As Your Diet by Meymunah Olajobi

A healthy diet doesn’t focus on what you cannot eat, rather on the importance of what you eat and because of this period we are in, where Muslims are observing their obligatory fast – what is importanter is what you eat during those non-fasting hours. When I talk about healthy eating during Ramadan or any other time of the year, I don’t mean being on a restrictive diet. I am also not sharing this for the sole purpose of weight loss. Eating wholesome and healthy foods during the month of Ramadan and any other time is recommended and beneficial for many reasons such as: Higher energy levels for ‘Ibadah (worship). Opportunity to initiate healthy habits that you can incorporate all year round. Prevent bloating and discomfort associated with overeating at Iftar (breaking of fast).
