hey peeps, hope you're all well in health and Iman in sha Allah
so I was wondering would anyone like to fast? (for missed fasts or even sunnah and nafl in sha Allah )
this is obviously for islamic fasting and not intermittent fasting etc
thought we could help and motivate each other and Ramadhan I s not far away so it's an opportunity to build ourselves up to make the fasting easier but also to prepare the mind, body and soul so ibadah whilst fasting also becomes easier biidnillah
p.s sorry if I posted in the wrong section, wasn't sure where to.post it

It would be pretty cool if some others did it together with us as well, we could share what we ate haha
Yea not like the fasts are hard, it's just getting out of bed in the cold weather sis that is difficult but keep praying to Allah SWT to make it easy in sha Allah

Insha Allah yes I'll fast. Need to control my nafs as i have constantly been grazing during lockdown!!
Many health & spiritual benefits of fasting Alhamdulillah so even if you don't have to keep your missed fasts i would definitely recommend to all fit and healthy individuals insha Allah.
Pain and hardships allow you to grow spiritually Alhamdulilah so smile when a so called calamity befalls upon you.
Alhamdulilah Allah swt is the greatest.

Can I join the exclusive IB fasting crew too?
I am fasting today, had porridge+oats+cheerios with honey, a slice of toast, cup o tea with biscuits and a portion of almonds. You know what they say, breakfast should be big.
Sehri in the short daylight wintery days is like a very early breakfast with ifthar as a very late lunch... Why not reap some rewards... In shA Allah, may Allah swt reward all.

I usually get too spooked to go downstairs by myself and grab some food in the early morning when its dark and quiet. So I just drank water from my bottle I had in my room
Sometimes I'll remember to bring some fruit/snacks upstairs the night before so I can simply eat in my room
I should probably do that this time..

bowl of oat, wheat or porridge cooked in hot milk
This does sound perfect for the cold season though

Asalamualykum
How was everyone's fast? 2 more left insha Allah well 3 more if you want to include sunnah Thursday too insha Allah.
During Ramadaan i always have Sehri Alhamdulillah only to reap the rewards but when i fast outside of ramadhaan i don't wake up to eat. Your body gets used to what you give it tbh. Alhamdulilah.
Pain and hardships allow you to grow spiritually Alhamdulilah so smile when a so called calamity befalls upon you.

why you scared for? just switch on the light and keep reciting ayatul kursi, the Qur'an is sooo powerful nothing can harm you trust Allah swt Almighty in sha Allah sis
tbh last year i set myself a challenge that i would onlyhave black coffee for suhoor and only have one big meal for iftar,
i actually did it for the whole of ramadhan, did ti for weight lose and it really helped subhanAllah

to be honest sister, since i can remember ive always got up for suhoor,
it doesnt feel like a fast if i dont wake up for suhoor,
like even in my last post i said i had just black coffee all for suhoor all ramadhan last year but i would still get up and sit in the lounge to have it etc
i dont know but it defo feels like more barakah when you wake up for suhoor
