Assalamo 'Alaykom,

Ramadan is approaching, for this occasion I wish that Ramadan 2018 brings us blessings.

I would like to make quick reminders about Ramadan.

Allah commands the believers to observe the fast for numerous reasons pertaining to this world and the hereafter.

- It helps realise taqwaa (righteousness, piety, consciousness of Allah, guarding against evil).
- It provides ample training in refraining from sin and wrongdoing.
- It helps us remember the needy and the distressed and encourages us to sympathise with them.

Things to avoid in Ramadan that Break the Fast:

- Food and drink
- Sexual activity
- Deliberate vomiting
- Beginning of menstruation or post-natal bleeding

Who is exempt from fasting Ramadan?

- Sick people whose medical condition is bound to be further worsened by fasting.
- People who cannot possibly observe a fast due to old age or sick people for whom there is no hope of recovery.
- Travelers.
- Menstruating women.
- Pregnant and nursing.
 
You feel your fast is more complete when you avoid backbiting, cursing, cheating, lying, stealing, not lowering your gaze, listening or watching mindless entertainment, etc.
