Definition of the Sawm or Siyam<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Sawm or Siyam (fasting) means in language to abstain from something.<\/p>\n

Maryam (Mary) (peace be upon her) said,<\/p>\n

“Indeed, I have vowed a fast to the All-Merciful. Thus, I shall not speak today to any human being.”<\/strong> (Qur\u02bean 19:26)<\/p>\n

In the legal usage of the term, fasting means to abstain from food, drink and sexual intercourse from dawn to sunset.<\/p>\n

\"Fasting\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In the legal usage of the term, fasting means to abstain from food, drink and sexual intercourse from dawn to sunset.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

This must be accompanied by the niyyah, intention.1he great commentator Al-Qurt\u0323ubi\u0304, the author of Al-jami\u02bf li\u0304 Ah\u0323kam Al-Qur\u02bean, adds to this definition that the perfect and complete Fasting is that in which acts of disobedience are avoided and acts of worship are maintained.<\/p>\n

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported:The Prophet (\ufdfa) said, “If one does not eschew lies and false conduct, Allah has no need that he should abstain from his food and his drink.” [Al-Bukhari\u0304].<\/p>\n

Observing the niyyah here means that you observe fasting as an act of worship only for the sake of Allah and out of obedience to Allah.<\/p>\n

The legal ruling regarding fasting the month of Ramad\u0323an:<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

It is obligatory to fast the month of Ramadan according to the Qur\u02bean, the Sunnah and the Consensus.<\/p>\n

Allah says:<\/p>\n

“O you who believe! Fasting is prescribed for you as it has been prescribed for those (who have believed) before you, so that you may be (ever) God-fearing. \u2026 So whoever among you bears witness to the month shall then fast it.”<\/strong> (Qur\u02bean 2: 183-185)<\/p>\n

On the authority of \u02bfAbdullahh, the son of \u02bfUmar ibn al-Khat\u0323t\u0323ab (ra), who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (\ufdfa) says, “Islam has been built on five [pillars]: testifying that there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah and that Muh\u0323ammad is the Messenger of Allah, establishing the Salah (prayer), paying the zakat (obligatory charity), making the hajj (pilgrimage) to the House, and fasting in Ramad\u0323an<\/strong>.” [Al-Bukhari\u0304 and Muslim]<\/p>\n

There is a consensus among all Muslim scholars that fasting Ramadan is obligatory.<\/p>\n

The prerequisites for the obligation of fasting:<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

There are four prerequisites:<\/p>\n

1- Islam<\/strong><\/p>\n

If non-Muslims fast or do any act of worship, it will not be accepted. Allah says,<\/p>\n

“Yet truly it has been revealed to you, O Prophet, and to those of the prophets before you: If ever you were to associate any gods with God, then utterly futile would be all your good works. And, most surely, you yourself would have become among the losers, of an everlasting Paradise.”<\/strong> (Qur\u02bean 39:65)<\/p>\n

\u02bfA\u02beisha reported: I said: Messenger of Allah, the son of Jud\u02bfan established ties of relationship, fed the poor. Would that be of any avail to him? He said: It would be of no avail to him as he did not ever say: O my Lord, pardon my sins on the Day of Resurrection. (Sah\u0323i\u0304h\u0323 Muslim)<\/p>\n

2- Reaching puberty:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

This is the second prerequisite. In Islam, there are three signs that denote a certain person has reached puberty.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The first wet dream and menstruation<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    There is an agreement among scholars on only one of these signs which is having the first wet dream for boys and the first menstruation for girls. This is the most authentic sign.<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. being 15 years old (only lunar years are used here)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Some scholars hold the opinion that if a person is 15 lunar years old, he or she is an adult who is obliged to fast and do other acts of worship.<\/p>\n

      However, the first sign is the most famous among the scholars.<\/p>\n

      What is the legal ruling regarding the child who fasts?\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

      If the child fasts, his or her fast is valid and acceptable. In addition, he and his or her parents will be rewarded. So, it is recommended for the children to train and learn to fast before they reach the age of puberty but it is not obligatory.<\/p>\n

      Narrated Al-Rubayi\u02bf bint Mu\u02bfawadh: “The Prophet (\ufdfa) sent a messenger to the village of the AnSar in the morning of the day of \u02bfAshura\u02be (10th of Muh\u0323arram) to announce: ‘Whoever has eaten something should not eat but complete the fast, and whoever is observing the fast should complete it.’ “She further said, “Since then we used to fast on that day regularly and also make our boys fast. We used to make toys of wool for the boys and if anyone of them cried for, he was given those toys till it was the time of the breaking of the fast.” (Sah\u0323i\u0304h\u0323 \u00a0al-Bukhari\u0304)<\/p>\n

      3- Sanity<\/strong><\/p>\n

      An insane person cannot be asked to perform any act of worship because they cannot understand the Shari\u02bfa address. Narrated Ali\u0304 ibn Abu\u0304 T\u0323alib: The Prophet (\ufdfa) said: There are three (persons) whose actions are not recorded: a sleeper till he awakes, a boy till he reaches puberty, and a lunatic till he comes to reason. (Related by Al-Nasa\u02bei\u0304, Abu\u0304 Dawu\u0304d and Ibn Majah)<\/p>\n

      4- Ability<\/strong><\/p>\n

      In addition to the three prerequisites mentioned above, fasting is only obligatory if the person has the ability to observe it. Allah says:<\/p>\n

      “God does not task a soul beyond its capacity.” <\/strong>(Qur\u02bean 2:286)<\/p>\n
