Ramadan Fast Purifies Our Soul

Billions of thanks and Shuqran to Allah Subhano Watala for giving us Fast of Ramadan to purify our heart and soul. Fast is a type of silent Prayer, but its rewards are greatest. The happiness of fast can be felt only by a person who observes it with whole heart just for the will of Allah Rabbul Izzat. Ramadan is the month of continuous Mercy and Blessings. Even if a person sleeps in the month of Ramadan is counted as Ibadat or prayer. Fast is type of prayer that brings closer to Almighty Allah and by keeping fast we are restricted to food, water and charms of duniya (world). it's a restriction for time being and Almighty Allah is so generous that He has kept only few hours for keeping a fast and one cannot remain hungry for whole day and night. Hence things are normal once we open the fast. We can enjoy food of our choice or liquid and so on. Similarly Allah has made compulsory for every Muslim to observe Fast in the month of Ramadan. If we leave it out for no specific reason than we would be punished for that
Fast stops us from all unislamic things. Ramadan is a month of blessings and mercy
