Please sister add this website to your fav. its very beneficial : www.islam-qa.com


the answer to your question:

What is the sickness which permits a fasting person to break his fast?
What is the sickness which permits a fasting person to break his fast in Ramadaan? Is it permissible to break the fast for any sickness even if it is minor?.​


Praise be to Allaah.

Most of the scholars – including the four imams – are of the view that the sick person is not allowed to break his fast in Ramadaan unless the sickness is severe.

What is meant by severe sickness is:

1- The sickness will be made worse by fasting

2- Recovery will be delayed by fasting

3- Fasting will cause intense hardship, even if it does not make the sickness worse or delay recovery

4- The scholars also included those who fear that they may become sick because of fasting.

Ibn Qudaamah (may Allaah have mercy on him) said in al-Mughni (4/403):

The kind of sickness in which it is permitted to break the fast is intense sickness which will be made worse by fasting or it is feared that recovery will be delayed. It was said to Ahmad: When can the sick person break his fast? He said, When he unable to fast. It was said, Such as a fever? He said, What sickness is worse than fever?

The healthy person who fears that he may become sick if he fasts is like the sick person who fears that his sickness may get worse, they are both permitted to break their fasts, because the sick person is permitted to break his fast because of the fear that his fasting may make his sickness worse and last for longer, and the fear that fasting may cause sickness is similar to that.

Al-Nawawi said in al-Majmoo’, 6/261:

The person who is unable to fast because of a sickness which he hopes will go away is not obliged to fast… This applies if he encounters obvious difficulty in fasting and is not subject to the condition that he reaches a point when he is unable to fast. Rather our companions said: The permission not to fast is subject to the condition that fasting causes him difficulties that it is hard for him to bear.”

Some of the scholars were of the view that it is permissible for every sick person to break his fast and that it is not essential that fasting cause them hardship.

This is an odd view which was rejected by the scholars.

Al-Nawawi said:

With regard to the person who is slightly sick and who does not suffer any obvious hardship, it is not permissible for him to break his fast, and there is no difference of opinion among us concerning that.

Al-Majmoo’, 6/261

Shaykh Ibn ‘Uthaymeen said:

The sick person who is not affected by fasting, such as one who has a slight cold or headache, or a slight toothache and the like, is not permitted to break his fast. Even though some of the scholars allow that because of the verse (interpretation of the meaning):

“…and whoever is ill …”

[al-Baqarah 2:185],

we say that the ruling mentioned in this verse is connected to a condition, which is when breaking the fast will relieve him of hardhsip, but if fasting does not affect him, then it is not permissible for him to break the fast, and he has to fast.

Al-Sharh al-Mumti’, 6/352.

No sister you are wrong , You can get cured.

“The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: ‘Allaah has sent down the disease and the cure, and has made for every disease the cure. So treat sickness, but do not use anything haraam’” (Reported by Abu Dawood, 3376),

The Bedouin said, “O Messenger of Allaah, should we not treat sickness?” He said: “Treat sickness, for Allaah has not created any disease except He has also created the cure, except for one disease.” They said, “O Messenger of Allaah, what is it?” He said: “Old age.”’” (Reported by al-Tirmidhi, 4/383, no. 1961. He said: This is a saheeh hasan hadeeth)

I'm going to the Traweeh prayer now and insha Allah i'll be back to clear it more isha Allah.

Sister! I just want you to know that every moment and every single second passes while you are suffering this illness insha Allah you will get rewarded for it in the next life.

It was narrated from Abu Sa’eed al-Khudri and Abu Hurayrah that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “No tiredness, exhaustion, worry, grief, distress or harm befalls a believer in this world, not even a thorn that pricks him, but Allaah expiates some of his sins thereby.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 5318 and Muslim, 2573.

Sister you Must trust Allah, if your choice is patience then insha Allah you will be rewarded a great reward

It was narrated that ‘Ata’ ibn Abi Rabaah said: Ibn ‘Abbaas said to me: Shall I not show you a woman who is one of the people of Paradise? He said: Yes. He said: This black woman came to the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and said: “I suffer from epilepsy and I become uncovered. Pray to Allaah for me.” He said: “If you wish, you can be patient and Paradise will be yours, or if you wish I will pray to Allaah to heal you.” She said, “I will be patient.” Then she said: “But I become uncovered. Pray to Allaah that I will not become uncovered.” So he prayed for her.

Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 5652; Muslim, 2576.




And you Must know that seeking cure is not a bad thing , Now sister if you want cure you Must Trust Allah and to Follow the procedure.

and the procedure of cure for any Illness is to 1-Trsut Allah and ask him to heal you 2- take medicine .

and in this case (fibromyalgia) medicine are just painkillers. so what we should learn is how to trust Allah ,how to ask him and how to supplicate .
 
thank you brother i will pray to Allah to heal me and to heal others who are also ill and i will keep taken my painkillers
 
thank you brother i will pray to Allah to heal me and to heal others who are also ill and i will keep taken my painkillers

I didn't say Don't take your painkiller, did I?

Do you know times of Supplication acceptation?<<<< this is the most important point want to refer to.
 
I didnt say that you didnt say that :(
i know what you meant brother when am in prayer to Allah


Oh ok, forgive my misunderstanding

I know you might have a feeling of depression due to this illness, for this reason insha Allah I'll do my best to collect Dua' (supplication) decencies and fruits. I won't talk about legends or myths. I'll talk about facts.

one of these facts is that we Muslims are certain of the Almighty , we are sure of his power to do what he want ,He do what he wills in anytime he wills .

another Fact is that Allah is All hearer

verse (186) from surat Albaqara : When My servants ask thee concerning Me, I am indeed close (to them); I listen to the prayer of every suppliant when he calleth on Me; let them also with a will listen to My call and believe in Me; that they may walk in the right way. (186)


Insha Allah I'll post some conditions of Dua' (supplication) being accepted by Allah

but excuse me , I'm not going to post them one shot.

For now this is my advice to you : work on your heart , strength your certainty of Allah's might increase your sure of his power and mercy this is the most important thing in supplication.

Assalam Alykum for now.
