Fasting is the best source of physical energy
Muslims
around the world fast during the month of Ramadan. Medical experts say that
fasting also has a positive effect on physical health. As science and medicine
progress, researchers are beginning to agree that fasting is a medical miracle.
Now let's see in the light of modern medical research how fasting has its
beneficial effects on the human body.
Effects of fasting on the digestive system
Fasting
has an amazing effect on the liver and the process of storing energetic food in
the liver is greatly relieved.
Fasting
strengthens the sensitive parts of the digestive system, the throat and the
esophagus. As a result, the secretions from the stomach are better balanced.
Fasting and fatty substances in the blood
·
Among the positive effects of fasting on the body are
significant changes in the sebaceous substances of the blood.
·
Changes in HDL levels, especially for the heart, are
important because it protects the heart and arteries.
·
Fasting also has a beneficial effect on LDL and
triglycerides, two other fats.
Effects of fasting on blood circulation
Increased
blood pressure during fasting is at a low level. During fasting, when the
nutrients in the blood are at a low level, the bone marrow becomes mobile,
which improves the process of blood production.
Effects on blood cells
The main
effect of fasting is manifested in the form of balance between the bodily cells
and the internal fluids. During the fast, various fluids are reduced in
quantity, which greatly calms the process of the cells. Epithelial, which are
responsible for the constant excretion of body fluids, also get a great deal of
relief through fasting alone, which in turn increases their health.
Eliminate obesity
In our
country, the principle of eating has become more common than eating for life
(eat as much as you can to survive). Eating for life (life is for eating and
drinking). Happy eating is a good habit, but it does not mean anything. Not
overeating, overeating, untimely meals, especially at weddings and ceremonies
that may not be repeated, frequent use of poultry and spicy foods, fast food
burgers, pizza, double Excessive consumption of bread, bread and biryani, not
exercising, avoiding walking, eating late at night and falling asleep,
especially in women, lack of any exercise opportunities after eating poultry,
body Dangerous diseases such as obesity are on the rise due to the birth of
fatty ingredients.
Obesity
causes many other disorders, such as high blood pressure, diabetes,
infertility, and congestive heart failure. Fasting can lead to significant
weight loss. Getting rid of obesity or significant weight loss is easily
possible during Ramadan.
Cholesterol control
Cholesterol
(fat components) is helpful and necessary in keeping the blood circulating, but
if their amounts exceed the balance, a person can suffer from many dangerous
diseases.
Excessive
cholesterol (fatty substances) that causes many diseases can be dissolved
during Ramadan by controlling hunger and thirst.
Blood pressure
In our
country, excessive consumption of poultry, spicy heavy foods, strong coffee,
tea or coffee temporarily accelerates blood circulation. Moderation in eating
and drinking from fasting, proper interval and unhealthy foods. Use reduces the
negative effect on the stomach, which is a way to moderate blood pressure.
Fasting and Precautions
It should
be kept in mind that the above benefits can be possible only if we use simple
food in Sahar and Iftar. Especially during Iftar, heavy and fried chicken items
like samosas, fritters, kachoori etc. should not be used too much. Excessive
use of these substances destroys the spiritual purpose of fasting. The physical
benefits of abstaining from food are lost and the stomach becomes worse.
In Iftar,
instead of gathering food items on the table, Iftar should be done with one or
two fruits, dates or honey mixed with milk. Some more should be eaten after Maghreb
prayers. Instead of consuming large quantities of water, milk or any other beverage
once in Iftar, use it intermittently. By following these measures, we will be
able to enjoy the spiritual benefits of fasting as well. Will also be able to
get physical benefits.
First you read fasting in the theory of science. Now we see the
importance of fasting in Islamic theory.
Fasting and Islam
Allah
says (interpretation of the meaning): “O you who believe! Fasting is prescribed
for you, as it was prescribed for those before you, that you may become
righteous and avoid sins.
Importance
Whoever
fasts for one day for the sake of Allah, Allah will remove him from Hell as
much as a crow that starts flying from its infancy until it grows old and dies.
The
Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Fasting is not just
the name of abstaining from food and drink, but fasting is the name of
abstaining from all useless and useless deeds and desires based on sexual
desires. Therefore, if someone insults you during fasting or speaks of
ignorance, tell him that I am fasting.
The
Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: If a person leaves one
day of Ramadan without any leave, fasting for the whole year will not suffice.
The sleep
of a fasting person is worshiped and his silence is glorified and his prayers
are accepted and accepted.
Hazrat
Jabir narrates from the Holy Prophet that he said that on the Day of
Resurrection God will raise some people in the form of peaks. People will
trample them with their feet. It will be asked who
These
people in the form of ants are?
They will
be told that these are the people who were arrogant.
It is
narrated on the authority of Zayd bin Khalid that the Prophet (peace and
blessings of Allah be upon him) said: Whoever breaks the fast of a fasting
person will get the same reward as the fasting person and the reward of the
fasting person will not decrease.
