00:00:00 --> 00:00:07 
			Know that there is a direct connection between the intake of food
00:00:10 --> 00:00:12 
			and the state of our man.
00:00:14 --> 00:00:20 
			We might think that that's something physical Eman is spiritual, different, not no connection. No.
00:00:22 --> 00:00:26 
			Allah didn't prescribe this month of fasting
00:00:28 --> 00:00:29 
			for our stomachs
00:00:32 --> 00:00:37 
			is prescribed it for our Eman for our soul for hearts.
00:00:43 --> 00:00:50 
			And if we're not able to do this, then a key element of Ramadan remains missing for us.
00:00:52 --> 00:00:55 
			That key element is hunger.
00:00:58 --> 00:00:59 
			hunger.
00:01:01 --> 00:01:02 
			We're not experiencing it.
00:01:04 --> 00:01:09 
			The Avatar is four course five course meal
00:01:10 --> 00:01:11 
			banquet.
00:01:14 --> 00:01:17 
			And afterwards, we still keep eating after taraweeh
00:01:19 --> 00:01:22 
			and then two or three course meal for savour.
00:01:24 --> 00:01:25 
			No hunger.
00:01:28 --> 00:01:29 
			But this is what
00:01:30 --> 00:01:36 
			Allah wanted us to experience hunger in Ramadan
00:01:38 --> 00:01:43 
			hunger so that we could experience what
00:01:44 --> 00:01:46 
			half of the world is experiencing.
00:01:48 --> 00:01:50 
			We can share in their experience
00:01:52 --> 00:01:54 
			that we can better appreciate
00:01:56 --> 00:01:58 
			the trials that they're going through
00:01:59 --> 00:02:05 
			and that would then cause us to be more charitable.
