I do not want to review the benefits of "fasting", as they are many and known by many, but in general they are summarized in: peace of mind, immunity against psychological stress, purification of the body from harmful toxins, and by obedience to the Lord, spirituality and piety, and fasting may be an ideal opportunity to start a new healthy lifestyle. Because it has great physical health benefits.
In this haste, I will focus on another aspect, which is the quarrels that occur from some fasting people during the day in Ramadan, as we see them falling into verbal altercations and touchings that end in a clash of hands.
permission; Fasting is innocent of these negative behaviors, and some of them may explain that he could not bear the situation because his mood is volatile because he did not drink coffee or refrain from smoking, and these unjustified arguments reveal that the person did not realize the importance of benefiting from the lessons of fasting, the most important of which are patience, self-discipline and self-control, and its benefits. If the instincts become under the control of the will and the strength of faith, the fasting person will feel reassured and psychologically comfortable.
God Almighty has made worship a means of comfort and calming of feelings, and fasting is an opportunity to get rid of negative feelings and reconcile with oneself, to elevate souls, serenity and reassurance, training in patience and endurance, and developing the ability to control oneself, and that which makes instincts weak in front of the control of the will and the strength of faith, so the fasting person feels With peace and comfort.
