124. Surah Al-Baqarah, Aayat No 183

يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا كُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمُ الصِّيَامُ كَمَا كُتِبَ عَلَى الَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَتَّقُونَ

O you who believe! fasting is prescribed for you, as it was prescribed for those before you, so that you may become Al-Muttaqun(pious)

Abu Hurayrah radiyallaahu ‘anhu said: The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) said:
“Every deed of the son of Adam will be multiplied between ten and seven hundred times. Allah, may He be glorified and exalted, said: Except fasting. It is for Me and I shall reward for it. He gives up his desires and his food for My sake.” Muslim (1151) 

SubhanAllah! 

Indeeed isn't it Beautiful that Allah Subhanahu wa taala Himself will reward us for Fasting. Just imagine the reward of The Lord Of The Worlds In Shaa Allah. It will be the most greatest and the most unique.

The Order to Fast
In an address to the believers of this Ummah, Allah Subhanahu wa taala ordered them to fast, that is, to abstain from food, drink and sexual activity with the intention of doing so sincerely for Allah the Exalted alone.This is because fasting purifies the souls and cleanses them from the all evil

Allah Subhanahu wa taala said in this Aayat "Fasting is a means of attaining Taqwa and becoming Al-Muttaqun(pious)"

Taqwa is based on 3 things
Fear Allah
Love Allah
Hope in Allah

When we fear Allah the way HE SHOULD BE FEARED
When we love Allah the way HE SHOULD BE LOVED
When we have complete hope in Allah the way HE ASKS US TO HAVE HOPE IN HIM

The people of Taqwa are the most successful people in this life and in the hereafter where they will be the dwellers of Paradise In Shaa Allah.

️May Allah Subhanahu wa taala help us become the righteous people of Taqwa in this blessed month and bless all our lives with Aafiyat and Barakat in abundance. 

Aameeen Ya Rabbul Aalameen
