In ramadan If i masturbated when fasting, will it mean that i did not fast for that day?
To answer your initial question, if you intentionally ejaculate(in other words, it was not a wet dream) while fasting then your fast is broken. You are not suppose to masturbate anyway, even if it is not Ramadan, so asking if you can masturbate after fasting is pointless. EDIT: You need to find a good woman and get married so that she can keep you away from evil my brother. May Allah(swt) lead you to the straight path and keep you away from evil. InshAllah. EDIT 2: And Shukran for asking the question. If you want to know something that is capable of being answered, and you ask the question sincerely of a person who knows the answer, then you deserve that answer. But still, try to keep away from Haraam, both during Ramadan and during the rest of the year, inshAllah.
What are some tips/advice for those fasting in Ramadan?
My biggest advice:Drink a lot in the morning - I don't miss the food as much as I miss the water. So the biggest thing I have found is to drink a lot and eat food that has a lot of juice in it (oranges, apples, etc) in the morning.Try to stay busy or sleeping - while you are busy or sleeping, you are not thinking about eating or drinking.Don't try dieting - I see a lot of questions about dieting or just starting working out during Ramadan, I highly recommend against doing this. If you are really into dieting, you are already taking in less calories (assuming you don't gorge pre-fajr or iftar), so dieting is a non-issue, just make sure you are getting enough nutrients. And starting working out is a definite no, if you are working out correctly you will sweat, and sweating will make fasting harder, if not impossible (dehydration). So please, if you do not know what you are doing do not try this!Don't gorge at iftar - you will be in pain, and you will look uncivilized.Read Qur'an - We constantly focus on the physical aspects of Ramadan, but that is only half of it. The not eating is supposed to help you grow closer to your deen and be able to empathize better. So this is the ideal time to take Allah(SWT) instruction better.Do Better! - It doesn't have to be anything big like achieving world peace; maybe you are not praying all each salat, maybe you haven't made dua' in a while. Ramadan is the time to do better so at least try, Allah (SWT) promises that every effort and intention (for good) will be rewarded, so you have nothing to loose and everything to gain.
Are there any Muslims who don't fast on Ramadan?
Unfortunately there are many who don't fast. Also there are many misconceptions. Most non muslims think that Islam is so strict that a person has to fast no matter what.There are many conditions under which a muslim is allowed to not keep fast. Few of them include :- 1. If person has disease which can get severe because of fast.2. If person is too old to fast.3. If person is in travel and would find it difficult to fast.4. If a lady is pregnant or has a child which needs breast feeding.5. Also it is not mandatory for a small child. After a certain age only its mandatory.As you can see from above conditions most of the genuine hard conditions are taken off. So Islam does not mean to torture you. It takes care of unreasonable situations.Now, coming to the second part of your question. Muslims eat at least two meals. One early morning(Sehr) before sunrise and one straight after sunset(Iftaar). Sehr is in fact is encouraged and it is explicitly asked by Prophet that people should do Sehr and not avoid it. In most other religions concept of eating early morning is not there. Therefore, it becomes harder to fast. As far as eating a lot is concerned, the human stomach has some capacity and certainly no one can stuff more then that. Actually, it is not that hard to fast. Once you have fasted for the first few days, the rest becomes easy. In fact even kids as young as in 9th standards keep full fast without any problem. Ramadaan does not mean a muslim should leave all work and just lie like an animal. And certainly it is no torture. The pleasure you get when you put the first morsel of food in your stomach at Iftaar and first sip of water is unparalleled. It will make you realise how important water is, and how important any food which you do not even think of eating normally is. You will start feeling for those who have no food to eat. Saying this is different, but ones you experience it you would understand better. Also it will make you more thankful to God, that he made you lucky enough to enjoy these things without any contribution of yours.
I have a hard time fasting during Ramadan, do you have any tips to help me?
Gratitude and Dua, Dear SadiaIt is commendable that you admitted to having a “Hard Time” when fastingIf you are an adult, (past your puberty) then fasting is obligatory for youWe are not allowed to “not fast” unless seriously ill or traveling in hard areasDeliberately ignoring Ramzan fasting cannot be made up. For an able bodies person, the penalty if fasting for TWO straight months without break in return for ONE day of missed fastingSo, we do agree that fast you “have to!”How to make it easy. Well, I would not advise golf or swimming on regular basisEat a nutritious sahri with milk and good protein and fruits. Dates are known to keep one filled for hours so, take 3–4 dates at sahriRest after shari. Pray Faj’r and then recite Quran. Go to sleep if you are off from school. If school is in session then go to schoolKeep “Low Key” in school. No running around, yelling, laughing too much, fighting etc. Take your lessons and return home as soon as school is outPray Zuh’r and go to sleep. Wake up for As’r around 5 pm and this is the time to exercise, if you must. Exercise for no more than 30 minutes. Shower, Freshen up and help in kitchen. Ask for your favorite food in Iftar. Allah Loves kids who enjoy what HE Has ordered us to enjoyDo not drink too much sugary drinks in Iftar. Eat dates, yoghurt, fruit and fresh juice. Pray Taraweeh at your local mosque if they have arrangement for girls. If not, then pray it at home with your mother or cousins or other family members. It is a fun ibadah, you will seeI hope this helps, Happy RamzanPeace!
Do I have to fast 60 consecutive days?
Today I was required to take a urine test for my job. I am still fasting for Ramadan and made the intention to fast. I did not produce enough urine and had to drink water in order to give a large enough sample. Do I now have to fast for 60 consecutive days? I did not want to drink, but it would be a failed test if I did not and I need this job.
Do you starve during Ramadan?
You get to eat before sunrise and after sunset, so think of it as hibernation. It's more than just not eating, we don't drink anything either or have sexual intercourse during the time that we fast. But no, it's not like starving at all. You'll complain about how hungry you are, but trust me, it's nothing like what starvation is like in Africa, Asia, and the Middle East. Migraines, nah.
What will happen if I don't eat for 30 days? I wanted to try this challenge that has been trending. Basically you only drink water for 20–30 days. I am kind of overweight and want to lose weight kinda fast.
You will lose weight… a lot of weight. The weight loss is drastic and people will take notice, But chances are high that you will regain the weight over the following months. It can be done, I did it for 32 days. Was shooting for 40 but at 32 I really started to get light headed and dizzy. First 3 days are the toughest, after that it becomes easier. You will feel weaker but not abnormally weak if you are a fairly healthy person. You will suffer once you start eating again, there will be a few days of very loose stools. As your body starts the whole digestive process again. I did it because I was really really miserable in my life at the time and I wanted to restart/refocus my life. I wasn't really planning on going the 32 days when I first started. Then once a week or so passed I decided to try to do it 40 days. On the side note, I have tried to fast for a few days in a row since then and I cannot do it,:) just goes to show myself how upset my life was at the time.:). Am I glad I did it? Yeah I think so, I'm a big challenge kinda person so it makes me feel like I've accomplished something that most people haven't. Do I feel like my life was at risk?? No, not until day 32 came. At that point I decided it was in my best interest to stop.I did drink carbonated water at meal times. All other times it was strictly water, tea or coffee. Although I did quit drinking coffee after awhile, too acidic on an empty stomach.
