As-salamu alaykum wa rahmatullah, hi brothers, I just wanted to ask a question that's been in my mind for quite a long time. Is fasting good for you? I'm asking this question because during this holiday called 'Ramadan', where the crescent comes in the sky once a month in once a year; we pray for Allah and fast as a way to know the pain of homeless people.
I ask to know one thing, is it healthy or useful? If it's healthy then mashallah, if it's unhealthy then al-hamdullah I'm not poor. Please answer fellow anons.
