yeah we talk a lot oh no problem so either use them

what

Ramadan

is upon us

because the love of Allah works Tuesday April 13 will be the first day of class

fasting the month of Ramadan is one of the most distinctive signs and features of our faith

a lot more just as you have a

cookie Valley also Yeah, can I put you down Republic will die.

Oh you have received phosphate is prescribed for you, as it was for those before you so that you will gain

a lot. So tell us this very simple, clear language in this verse fascinating is prescribed which means it is an obligation. It is a duty

fasting for one day is not easy. Fasting for 30 days is much harder.

For people who have never fasted before, like before, it should have not. It would have seen it wasn't seen that veteran be intimidated.

Their first reaction upon being told that they have to pass for not one but 30 days would likely be one a hesitation. 30 days is an awfully long time.

Can I really do it?

Even today, this is what many economists can say when they learn about law. The questions start coming 30

Not even more.

It says if Allah azza wa jal anticipates this reaction with what he says X cannot give up on the public

as it was prescribed for those before you

along, telling us that fasting is nothing new.

This was not some strange, new form of torture, that he has decided to burden us with.

Exactly the opposite. By fascinate we are continuing a tradition of devotion to a last time was the honor that stretches back continuously through all the prophets and communities of faith.

Fasting was prescribed for Isa

and his followers. Fasting was prescribed for Musa is that his powers as the inheritors of the timeless message of Tahiti, and faith. It makes perfect sense that we as Muslims should also inherit this act of worship.

By reminding us company are continuing a long tradition with the past. Allah subhanho wa Taala is reassuring us that we can do it. Just like people have been doing it for 1000s and 1000s. of years.

Well, once we've established that this act of fasting is not so strange, or unprecedented, the next doubt or source of hesitation that will creep into our minds will probably be what's the point of fast faster? What's the idea behind the Get off? Whatever the law has put us through what some people think, is needless suffering.

Almost addresses this as well. C'est la vie.

So that you will gain Tanga.

Tanga is the goal. We don't fast to lose weight. We don't fast for health benefits or because we just love soccer. We fast the game Taqwa Allah azza wa jal says it breaking.

But what is the meaning of this? Talk about the spelling of Allah azza wa jal one sauce to get out of fasting. If we go back to the posts of Arabic language with three letter roots where a lot of honey has to do with a barrier,

or a wall, something that separates two things from the word by

Allah says it's sort of a total overhaul of the world.

And their Sustainer prevented them from the punishment of the Hellfire literally, he put a barrier between them and separated them from this.

So what is the last time he was trying to say when he started going to be fast sipping tequila? What is the barrier that Allah is talking about?

And how does fasting during Ramadan deal with this barrier?

The barrier Allah subhanho wa Taala is talking about is the barrier between you and what takes you further from Allah. It's the barrier between you and what displeases Allah is the barrier between you and anything that might distance you from Allah's mercy and forgiveness.

Allah wants you close to him.

He wants to be constantly in your thoughts and your speech and constantly informing your actions not because he needs this is my job.

because we need

some toys, the barrier that keeps all other influences away and guards your relationship with the last time.

He did it to me of a barrier or a wall to describe piety is familiar to the prophets of Allah while he was seven he said he has begun what how am i right? You will be able to run the show we have

a nice

family example she will have that by December. He wherever the woman was, our official board has the army tell

you she will never

allow anybody put him

in a home or whatever. When I read

the prophets of Allah Medina says Surely the handout is clear and the Haram is clear. But between them.

There are some things that are not so clear. Most people don't know about these.

Whoever the prophets of Allah, nobody uses this word taco, taco, from Taco whoever distances and stop himself from things that are not clear, is blameless,

blameless, both in his face and in his reputation. And whoever indulges in things that are not clear, will eventually fall into cut off, just like a shepherd, the progress of a loved one as an example of a shepherd who raised his flock around the border that is of a forbidden pasture. He's constantly on the verge of trespassing, the balance.

Every King has the privilege and pasture and the last revision after one of the things that he has forbidden.

The promise of a low body to

be used as the chemistry of the barrier here to illustrate the top row is deliberately putting up a wall between you and the harm. It's a buffer. So

it keeps us around far enough away that you don't have to worry about doing it by mistake.

This is why top bar is sometimes translated as fear. Because when you fear something, you're not even going to come close to it.

You're going to make sure you keep as far away as possible.

Talking about is also sometimes referred to as consciousness or awareness.

The companion may tell them from the alarm,

that telco was like walking through a now 30 Pack.

How does someone pass through such a pass

that gear for legal wherever they are going to step every single step is carefully calculated.

And they walk slowly, cautiously

subcostal group of over 40 Pathlight this takes focus,

concentration and awareness. This is talking about

our lives our life this morning.

When we look to the left or to the right, we find temptations, we find sin, we find doubts,

we find decisions that will take us further away from the laws, pleasure and mercy.

So move through my top writers to be very deliberate and not get yourself into anything until we talk very carefully about

outside of Ramadan.

Many of us are lost in this lonely world that

we don't feel as much as we should.

And we lose sight of what's really important.

And so what are we talking about our wall starts to crumble.

Other influences creep in causing our relationship with the loss of time with Darla to get weaker and weaker

on the lawn is the time to fix the wall.

So look at ourselves finally and take inventory.

What are the things that have influence over me in my life?

One of the things I consider when I'm making a decision,

am I really prioritizing a loss because without

as much as I should,

we can now recognize the value of Tuckwell and how important it is to our life.

And our successful passage through it's what we haven't answered yet is, Why did Allah subhanaw taala choose this one specific way? Why fasting?

Are there other ways to rebuild our

candidates? We have done this without skipping meals?

The answer is no. Not really.

There's nothing more direct and efficient to build on top of that fascinating.

Part of the reason why is because fasting is a secret. It's between you and your Sustainer Allah. And so it's more sincere than any other act of proportion the prophets Allah said in a hadith

called the left in the

ACP. MPd is on fire the person is for himself, except for fasting. Fasting, a lot of sense has come for me, and then I wrote report report.

At the end of the day, if you go home, and eat or drink here in Omaha,

no one's going to help.

You can pull everyone if you really want to suddenly a hidden nature of fasting develops our tap water, because it develops our ability to make decisions that leads along when no one else is watching.

on other parts of why fasting is chosen specifically for us to develop tempo is because fasting has an effect on the human body that it is almost unavoidable.

This is different from the slide on prayer.

Your prayer can be distracted, you can stand in the row and the entire time between the technique. But that's asleep. You could be thinking about your job, you should be thinking about what's on television. Prayer doesn't change your physical states, except for the people who have mastered the prayer.

Fasting, on the other hand, breaks us with hunger and thirst.

It forces our body to feel different it makes the body it clears our schedule, and forces us to turn our attention inward towards our soul.

This is why fasting Ramadan is the chosen way to develop

and rebuild our relationship with the last

one we have

on the Saturday speaking me.

Kundalini early on there

was somebody

in the back was actually starting on the shopping portion was taking

some of our money on the last tab it was somebody who was receiving a gift

basket in the month of Ramadan, that is one of the pillars of our faith. One of the instantly recognizable signs of a smile, the Muslims. And despite that

Allah subhanho wa Taala is so merciful and compassionate that he has excused many types of people from this tremendous act of worship. First, no one under the age of puberty is required to pass.

However, the sun is used to encourage their young people to fast parts of the day or part of Ramadan in order to make them accustomed to faster. This is narrowing as we're leaving Sydney and zoafia on Saturday,

Saturday, Saturday, it wasn't a good idea to begin this around age seven, in my mind was set around age 10.

Every parents will know their own child's situation.

But the idea is to prepare them for success so that their first experience of fasting is not too overwhelming.

Second, people who are traveling or who are temporarily ill are not required to fast a lot as

a young footballer

whoever lost you is ill or traveling, pick it up another time

as a loss of wonderful service to people who are temporarily ill for traveling are allowed to break their fast and do not have to do anything except make up their fascinating days outside of home alone.

Most scholars go out of their way to point out that find a temporary illness, we are not talking about a simple headcode Nor are we talking about any symptoms that are caused by fasting itself, such as hunger or fatigue or a headache. Most scholars say that illness must make it significantly difficult.

In order to excuse someone from a day of fasting.

Scholars have different opinions about what exactly counts as travel. The most lacks opinion, there's probably not a lot here, who said that anything that can be called travel

within your culture and language counts as a day in which you do not have to fast.

On the other end is the opinion of FIFA, or hanging on the wall who said that travel is anything that exceeds the distance of a three day journey, and is accompanied by the intention to stay for less than 15 days.

In between those two opinions was the majority of scholars who say that tribal is anything farther than the 55 miles away, accompanied by tension to stay there less than four days.

If you begin a fasting day and then travel during daylight hours, the majority of scholars say that you must complete your past for that day, and it counts as a fascinating day. Meaning you do not have to make it up. You know, some of the sudden said that if someone begins to travel during the day, and all along, they are allowed to break their past for that day after they depart. And they must make up that day outside of home alone.

In the opposite scenario, the scholars disagree more so about what to do if you are traveling and therefore not fasting, and then you arrive home during the day in normal home. Even on any kind of the fact that certain that you are required to fast no remainder of that day, even though it does not count as a complete fasting day, and it will need to be made up faster on the phone. Events that is a Saturday, however, said that you are not required to fast for the rest of the day.

The third group of people who are excused are the elderly and the chronically ill, who are unable to pass they are not required to do so. And fastly it puts their life in danger is actually wrong for them.

Instead, they are required to feed a poor person one meal for each day of Ramadan.

For women who are pregnant or nursing are not required to pass if they fear for their own health, or they fear for the health of themselves and their child. If fasting is likely to cause harm to the child and the mother that the woman is not allowed to fast. This is in addition to if a woman is experienced in her time of the month, she is also not allowed to fast by

what is required of such a woman pregnant for her nursing, instead of fasting is a common source of disagreement among scholars in the schools of thought. They disagree whether such a scenario should follow the rules of a temporary illness, such that only fasting the day you would need to be paid up outside of home alone, or instead should follow the rules of a chronic illness such that only a fifth year would need to be paid. Or the third option whether this is an entirely different situation that calls for different tools altogether. For your reference, ultimately 100 Free and the Maliki schools took the position that are pregnant or nursing

A woman in this situation only has to make up the fastest outside of Milan. Following the rules of a temporary illness.

The staffing company schools took the position that a woman in this situation must not only make up her fasts outside of Ramadan, but must also pay 50 for each day.

And finally, with a tiny pass

from their loved one, how they open the umbilical cord blood in this situation only has to be fitted and does not require to make up

at all. Each of these three opinions is acceptable to follow and each of them have their own ideas.

When we consider all these allowances that Allah subhanaw taala has made it we notice that there is a balance here of balance being struck between being too lacks, and being too strict. On what happens if a pregnant woman legitimately cares for herself and her unborn child, she must not be pressured to fast, nor should she be guilted into thinking that she's not relying upon our lives

by taking the allowance but Allah subhanho wa Taala gave

people information and actually encourage her to not pass and tell her to take

a loss upon Potala this costume and put ourselves or others in danger of loss. So this one will be the people get attacked.

Don't throw yourself into structure.

On the other hand, we have to take the challenge of Roman law that series

examines sports, headaches from not having their normal amounts of coffee are not valid reasons to break the facts.

The refugee center contacted me a couple of weeks ago, they said we have an employer who has a a Muslim person who works for them and they're requesting time off the phone. I said okay, very good, how much so the entire month of Ramadan.

Ramadan is for the difficulty. The difficulty that we experienced when we go without food and water is exactly what we're looking for.

That difficulty has a purpose. That difficulty is educational. That difficulty gives us a sense of solidarity with those in need. For any of us, eating outside of home alone is a question of if we want to not an issue of if we can.

without thinking twice about this, we go to the fridge which is uncovered and we take whatever it is we want. Many people don't live that kind of life. Many people have to be patient every day with their hunger until they can find something to eat.

They don't get to choose or refuse, they take whatever they can get. The difficulty of fasting on the lawn gives all of us just a small window into what is for many people a daily experience, and so increases our compassion and sense of duty towards these people.

The difficulty of fasting forces us to realize that a loss

alone sustains

not calories, not hours of sleep. These are only the means that a law creates

outside the realm of life if we don't fast, right? We start to depend too much on these beings. We start to actually believe that there's the calories of food and the hours of sleep that sustainless and not allies and modalities.

We get nervous when we think about going so long without eating or staying up part of the night to pray. We're afraid. We're afraid we won't be unable to function the next day.

But calories of food and the hours of sleep their effects is not absolute. It is dependent on the will of Allah subhanaw taala Has it ever happened to you that some nights you get more sleep than usual? And yet when you wake up you're still tired?

Has it also happened in some ways you get less sleep than you wanted but you're surprised when you wake up the following

Okay, refresh, and then attended

Allah subhanho wa Taala he decides what are the calories of foods that you eat will satisfy your hunger. Allah decides whether the hours that you sleep will give you press,

Ramadan forces us to realize almost complete control and power over the universe. We eat less than normal, we see less than normal. And despite that a lot carries us through our daily activities because we believe in him and dependent upon him. And if Allah subhanaw taala can do that for us with our food and our sleep. And one of the main lessons of Ramadan is that if we depend upon Allah like that throughout the year not just with our food and sleep on with everything else, Allah subhanho wa Taala will be with us and carry us through whatever it is we face for masala person who already

paid for it no longer with

us on the road

yeah we

certainly have seen a lot of

what

we're working on

in the machine

want to

work

at the happy

hour

why people

watch remote

work they will learn and we are

also going to work out

Yeah, we got a lot in the water as

well yeah.

Tell you something

that no one

thought was true or

false.
