Currently, there were prohibitions on the Smoking of cigarettes and chewing gum (and as is known, in the prophet's time did not exist). And drinking alcohol in Islam is prohibited not only in the Holy month of Ramadan, but, in General, throughout the year. Moreover, invalid and selling them. Unlike Christianity, fasting in Islam allows for the adoption of any meal: meat, and fried. At the same time he is limited by time. It is permissible to eat only in the dark.

In contrast to the Christian, fasting in Islam – not sad, and celebratory. For devout Muslims it is the greatest holiday. To him they were prepared in advance: buy food and gifts, since God forgives sins and answers prayers not only fasting, but also helping those in need, and just dealing with charity. After all, even the poorest have to take food with the onset of night time, to participate in the festival. So at the end of sacred time taken to collect the money (zakat) to the poor. In addition to God's work, you should try not to deceive anyone. Otherwise, it is considered that the Almighty will not take no fasting, no prayers.

Time of post

Islam, as the reader already knows, calls on all Muslims to fast in the Holy month of Ramadan. What will be his offensive – depends on the lunar calendar. Because every year it falls on the new date. During Eid it is customary to rise before the morning prayers, to eat Breakfast. This procedure meal before sunrise is called suhoor. The Holy prophet ordered the faithful not to neglect them, because it will give a lot of strength to perform prayer (Salat). So Wake up an hour earlier shouldn't be no work of the believers. And to end the suhoor is recommended prior to morning prayers-Fajr, so as not to be late for the time of fasting.

Throughout the day, until dusk, fasting is obliged to carry out in full the limit without food or water. To interrupt him, he is obliged to an evening prayer. Open iftar is necessary with a SIP of fresh water and dates. It is recommended to break the fast in time, not postponing. After taking water and dates do not need to immediately eat. First, you must make evening prayer, and then allowed to proceed to the dinner-iftar. Do not eat to satiety and overeat. You need to take just enough to satisfy hunger. Because otherwise the post would lose its meaning. And he, as you know, the need for the education of corporal lust.

Actions, devastating the body

What breaks the fast in Islam? These actions are of two kinds: that which maketh man, and what fills them. The first group includes those in which one process from the body out some of the liquid. As you know, this may be intentional vomiting (in case it was not intentional, the post is not considered as broken), or phlebotomy. Also, as mentioned above, it is forbidden to engage in intimate relationships. And as you know, during this process both men and women experience sexual release of genetic material. Since the action is intentional, and applies to violations.

Actually, and without the release of genetic material in intimate contact breaks the fast. Even if it happens between husband and wife. If the release occurred without intimate contact, but deliberately (abused myself), it is also a violation, because in Islam this action is considered a sin. However, if a man deliberately decided to do it, but it didn't the secretion of sexual fluid, the post is not considered as broken. Also is not a violation of the unintentional release in men and women.

In Islam, the violation is most serious. If a person has repented, he can make amends in two ways: either to free the slave(in the civilized world it is difficult and virtually inaccessible), or to fast for the next two months. Even if without good cause he will disrupt or interrupt the limitation that survives on the occasion of repentance for committing adultery, he must re-start the two-month abstinence.

To Hug and kiss during fasting – allowed. But these actions must not lead to sexual arousal, to avoid that it breaks the fast. If the spouses are able to control yourself, you can safely kiss each other. If there is no confidence in themselves or in their second halves, it is necessary to abandon arms. Sometimes it happens that the release of genetic material has occurred during sleep. And as you know, the person is not in control of his actions at this time. Therefore, fasting is not broken. In this case, to compensate it there is no need. And sodomy and bestiality in Islam are a grave sin always, not just in the month of Ramadan.

Bloodletting while fasting

To Donate blood – also a violation. It is believed that in this way man weakens. And to feel unwell during fasting – unacceptable. This means that a person should not donate blood. Even in cases of extreme necessity, it is a violation. However, fasting can compensate it on another day. If the bleeding started up unintentionally, the constraint is not violated. Also does not apply to him and the blood on the analysis. Indeed, in this case seems a little fluid, so people don't feel weakness. It is also not permitted, and fasting during the menstrual cycle (also kind bleeding). As you know, women in this period feel the weakness and soreness. And, as stated above, at this time is unacceptable fasting.

Nausea while fasting

If the fasting person stomach problems, he does not need to contain vomiting, for fear that it may break the fast. When a Muslim deliberately caused it, then this action will not be followed by punishment. If a fasting person inadvertently freed the stomach from its content, on the fasting is not affected. So, do not have to hold back retching. But to call them intentionally is prohibited.

Therefore, the pill and other medication needed in a dark time of the day. Also the post is not considered to be impaired if the blood to re-infuse after it was cleaned and saturated with essential nutrients. In addition, eye drops and ear or enemas also do not apply to forbidden when fasting. Even a valid removal of teeth, despite the likely release of blood from wounds. If the fasting person uses oxygen pillows (including asthmatics), the post is also not disturbed. Because the air – this is not food and drink, and the gas entering the lungs.

Any Muslim who deliberately took food or drink, has committed a great sin. Therefore, he is obliged to repent to compensate the violation of another day. And the double sin is an acceptance of the fact that Islam forbids any day, not just in the post – alcohol and pork. If people just forgot about the restriction (and this is often observed in the first days of Eid), the post is not considered as broken. To compensate it is optional. People should thank God for what He sent him food (and in fact the world is full of hungry people). If a Muslim saw that someone else reaches for food, he is obliged to stop him and remind him about fasting. Swallowing saliva or food residue stuck between the teeth, and is not a violation.
