The scholars have insisted on six matters concerning adab and the order of fasting which is very important for everyone who is fasting. The six cases are:
- Keep your eyesight from seeing everything forbidden to see. Some even argue, you should not see his own wife with a view of lust. If with a wife it is so, how else with other women who are not mahramnya? Similarly, do not see things neglect and perform other immoral acts. Messenger of Allah. Said. "Eye view is like one of the arrows of the arrows of shaitan. Whoever is afraid of Allah, then stay away from seeing immoral. So God will grant him a sweet light of faith and his passion will be felt in the heart. "
The scholars have interpreted the word 'not in place' above as visible things, then with that view something can enter into one's inner heart so as to turn its awareness from remembrance of Allah swt
- Keeping the tongue from lying, talking in vain, cursing, talking about other people's ugliness, talking dirty, arguing, arguing, and so on, including keeping verbal of those things. In the book of Sahih Bukhari there is one narration which states that fasting is as a shield for the fasting person. Therefore the people who fast should keep away from bad conversations such as vain talk, joking, quarreling, and so forth. If there are others who argue, tell him that we are fasting. If he still does not understand it, we should realize ourselves in our hearts that we are fasting, and we are not worthy to serve him in a fight. And more specifically it is to be completely out of touch with ghibah and lie. Because some scholars directly state that both can break the fast.
Keeping hearing from hearing the things worshiped. Hearing things that are not allowed by religion is the same position as talking about things that are not allowed by religion. Messenger of Allah. Said, "Ghibah, who speaks and who listens to both are equally sinful."
Maintain other limbs of sin and things that are forbidden by religion. For example, the hand should not touch or hold objects that are not allowed to be touched, the feet should not walk to places that are not allowed by religion, and other limbs should be kept completely from sin. So also with the stomach, should be careful that when breaking (ifhtar), do not eat food produced from the unlawful or doubtful halal. The one who breaks the fast, then when breaking the fast eating unlawful food or from a haram, is like a sick person then taking medicine, but he mixes the drug with a bit of poison. Although the drug will cure him from illness, but in the presence of poison, will destroy it.
When breaking the fast (ifhtar) even if the food is halal, but do not eat with sekyang-kenyangnya. Because if the act is done, the intent of our true fast will not be achieved. The purpose of fasting is to reduce our lusts and animal passions, strengthen our conscience, and strengthen our spirit. For eleven months, we eat and drink freely, so there is no problem if in the month of Ramadan we slightly shrink our stomach by eating as little as possible.
But what happens and what our bad habits are today is when we break the fast, we fill our stomachs as much as possible to replace the food we do not eat during the day. And when we eat, we eat as much as we can in the afternoon. Even so much we eat in Ramadan so much more than outside the month of Ramadan or beyond the time of fasting. And various types of food that is usually never eaten at other times, precisely we held in the month of Ramadan. Eating like this is actually contrary to the spirit of Ramadan.
- Then, for fasting people, every time you finish fasting should always be afraid and worried about whether or not fasting is accepted. This is what should be done in all forms of worship. Every completion of a worship should always feel anxious and worried whether the worship is accepted or not. Do not just let go. Perhaps one does not realize that in the worship there are important parts that are left without him knowing it.
