Ramadan is a sacred time for Muslims around 1.8 billion Muslims all over the world, keeping them fast during sunrise to sunset, they pass this time. But when the first month of fasting is compulsory? How was fasting before or before? This is our arrangement of today.
Ramadan [رمضان] (The linguistic fallacy: Ramadan) comes from the Arabic root ramida or ar-ramad, which means heavy heat or dryness. The ninth month of the Arabic calendar is Ramadan. Hazrat Muhammad (peace be upon him) was the first prophet to be the Prophet, in the month of Ramadan 610. On the night of this month, the first verses are revealed (the first five verses of Sura Alak) that night is called Shabba Qadr or Laylat al-Qadr (Lail = night in Arabic). It has been said that one night of the odd nights of the last ten days of Ramadan, this morning, it is assumed that the date is taken on 27th. However, according to another 23th night it is But for sure this night, the devout Muslims have done i'tikaaf, that is, 10 days prayer for solitary prayer. And the end of this Ramadan is Eid al-Fitr, which is one of the main two festivals of Muslims.
Although not fully proven, it is the doctrine that the Prophet's Prophet Ibrahim (peace be upon him) had passed on the first day of Ramadan, on the first day of Ramadan, the Torah came to Ramadan, 12 Ramadan and the Injil 13 Ramadan. Though Ramadan was not calculated outside the Arabs, but it is said that it has been settled in conjunction with the international calendar.
However, the order of fasting in the month of Ramadan for a full month comes down when the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and his companions migrated from Mecca to Madinah. That was the case of Hijrat 18 months later. Then there was the Arabic month of Sha'ban.
"The Month of Ramadan is the month in which the Qur'an has been sent down, which is a guidance for mankind and a clear direction for the right path, and the difference between right and wrong. Therefore, whoever of you receives this month, will fast this month. "[Quran, Baqarah 2: 185]
But it is not that no one was fasting before this. Of course. It is said in the Quran that fasting was also made compulsory for previous nations, even if it is not Ramadan.
O ye who believe! Fasting has been prescribed for you, as it was prescribed for those before you, that you may attain piety. "[Quran, Baqarah 2: 183]
Even the people of Makkah used to fast before Islam, but that is only on the 10th day of the month of Muharram, fasting of Ashura. Karbala did not happen yet, the main aspect of Ashura was the liberation of the Israelis and the Red Sea to be divided by Egypt under the leadership of Hazrat Musa (A). Others are also fasting for self-restraint and God's satisfaction.
Abu Yahnad, a Arab writer of 747, said that at least one Mandaiya community in northern Iraq's Al Jazeera region was fasting in Ramadan before embracing Islam. Ramadan fasting started from the beginning, by seeing the new moon, hence the start of Ramadan was different from the region. Now the Muslims of the country around the polar region can not fast during the normal period of nature, because it is difficult to differentiate day and night. Therefore, fasting and breaks in accordance with the schedule of the nearest normal country or the time of Makkah.
Tarabih as an additional worship, although it is not compulsory, rather Sunak Muayakkadah. Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) initially prayed with the Jamaat but did not do it later in the party, lest it became compulsory for the Muslims. However, the caliph Umar (R) began to reinstate him during his regime. However, Shi'ah abandons the Tarabis as a new idea. Tarabih prayers are being offered from eight to twenty rakats, but only 20 rak'ats have been performed in Mecca's Haram Sharif. It is to be mentioned that after eating the dawn, it is called fasting after fasting and roasting after eating after sunset.
Many Christians also fast, but in some different sense. The biblical Jesus Christ himself kept fast for 40 days. (Matthew 4; Luke 4). There is evidence in the Bible that early Christians were fasting. (Acts 13: 1-5; 14:23; 27: 9); Yet many devout Roman Catholic Christians celebrated the custom for six weeks in Easter Sunday, it is called Lent.
Note that in Arabic, the word "roza" is more common in the subcontinent. The Arabic word "fast" or Syriac "saoma" or the original Hebrew "par" means the meaning of "abstinence". Fasting is not only Christian or Muslim, but also in all areas of Jewish religion, Buddhism, Confucian, traditional, Tao or Jainism. In addition to the fasting of Ramadan, Muslims are encouraged to fast for any 6 days of Shawal month, 13-15 every Chandramas, fasting day on Arafa Day, Ashura Day etc. But fasting on the eid day is forbidden.
The only religion that is found in records where fasting was completely prohibited was the origin of the religion of Persia or Zarathustruvad.
However, fasting like Muslims, strictly fasting, only religious Jews. For six days a year, their obligatory fasting is to be kept. It is forbidden for them to fast on the day of Sabbath (weekly holiday). Of course, fasting should be kept in Yom Kippur (Hebrew Yum = Day, Kip = Apocryphal). According to the Jewish belief, the fate of one year is determined. And they kept the fast for 25 hours.
When Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) came to Medina, he saw that the Jews kept fasting for Ashura. Although they used to use the Jewish calendar to stay in Israel, they kept fasting on the tenth day of the Jewish month Tishri (Yom Kippur). In Arabia, they kept fasting on the tenth day of the month of Muharram, on the day of Ashura. Hazrat Muhammad (peace be upon him) asked, why do they fast? They replied, "God saved Israel on this day, and Prophet Moses (peace be upon him) fasted for this. Then Muhammad (peace be upon him) ordered the Muslims to fast on this day, because Prophet Moses (peace be upon him) was also present in Islam. But he asked to keep at least one day with him, the day before or the next. Although the people of Makkah did not know the story behind them, they used to fast on this day before, even before Muhammad, Muhammad (S) himself also kept. Before the fasting of Ramadan was mandatory, this fasting should be kept to everyone. After the fasting of Ramadan, this fasting becomes unfavorable.
Many may be interested, what was the Prophet Hazrat Muhammad (peace be upon him) and his disciples used to eat iftar or iftar? The Prophet (s) used to eat some wet dates before the Maghrib, if it were not dry drizzle / date and water. That was iftar Once he used to eat if he was on tour, he wasted his chutu and water. In the case of Sehri, the date palm was preferred. However, there is no reason to think that dates are small enough, Arab dates are big enough, at least in comparison to our country.
Religious Muslims throughout the world celebrate the month of Ramadan with religious sentiments, and greet them with great interest, Eid after Ramadan. Ramadan Mobarak everyone!
