What is the main purpose of fasting in Ramadan?

Fasting is an important pillar of Islam. Its purpose is not only to endure hunger and thirst, but fasting gives a person the opportunity to control his desires. When a person stops hunger, thirst and other desires, it makes a person realize how much he needs Allah Almighty. Fasting is a pure act of worship because when is there any possibility of showing off or hypocrisy in it? A person abstains from eating and drinking for the pleasure of Allah Almighty and avoids sins, whether anyone is watching or not. This is a means of getting closer to Allah. ![DALL·E 2025-03-05 08.43.32 - A serene illustration representing fasting in Ramadan.

It is stated in the Hadith: "O you who believe, fasting has been prescribed for you as it was prescribed for those before you, so that you may become pious." Fasting protects the one who fasts from sins, teaches him to control his desires and to be patient for the sake of Allah.

How does fasting benefit a person spiritually and physically?

Fasting instills the fear of Allah in a person's heart. When a person refrains from eating or drinking and other desires, it makes them feel that they are doing this only for the pleasure of Allah, which strengthens faith. 1: Fasting is not just a way to avoid physical desires, but also a means of staying away from all sins, such as lying, backbiting, and anger. It is a means of spiritual purification, creates peace in the heart, makes a person feel the suffering of hunger and thirst, creates mercy in the heart, and also gives an opportunity to express gratitude for the blessings bestowed upon him by Allah Almighty. 2: Fasting also relaxes our digestive system, which removes toxins from the body. This natural cleansing is very beneficial for health. ![DALL·E 2025-03-05 08.43.51 - A meaningful illustration showing the spiritual and physical benefits of fasting in Ramadan.

3: Do not be rude to anyone or speak angrily during fasting. Fasting is the name of humility, so we should speak to people with love and affection. Things we should avoid during fasting 1: Fasting is not just about staying hungry and thirsty all day long. During fasting, we should avoid being rude and angry with others, and avoid lying and backbiting. 2: We should avoid getting angry during fasting. If someone argues with us, say, "I am fasting." This will increase your self-control and the environment will remain peaceful. 3: Do not hurt anyone's feelings. Avoid gossip. If you do not do this, the blessings of fasting will be lost. Always treat others with love and kindness. 4: It is better to worship Allah, pray, and recite the Quran than to waste time watching useless videos and playing games on your mobile phone.
