Harm of missing a single fast in Ramadhaan
Submitted by Mohammed Gilani on
Hadrat Abu Hurairah (Radiyallahu anhu) explains that whoever eats on one day of
Ramdaan without a valid excuse or a genuine excuse that is
acceptable in Shariah shall not be able to recompensate for that day
even by fasting for the rest of his life.
If a person missed his Fardh
fast in Ramdaan, he will not be able to compensate for the missed
fast even if he has to fast throughout his entire life. To break one’s
fasts without a valid reason is even worse. A person will have to
keep sixty fasts in return.
If a person keeps the
Qadha fasts, the obligation will be fulfilled but he will never be able to reap the Barakaat and the tremendous rewards of Ramdhaan.
These are the words of Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam). That personality who has been
blessed with the knowledge of the former and latter times.
Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) is that personality that had desired our good.
In the
Hadith Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam) mentions that people want to fall in the fire whilst
I am catching them by their waist and pulling them out. People want
to fall into the fire of Jahannam and I am trying my utmost to
protect them. These are the words of Rasulullah (Sallallahu alayhi wasallam).
We should therefore instil
within our hearts the value of the month of Ramdhaan.
