A Shield from Jahannam
Reading Time: < 1 minute
In one Hadeeth the following is stated about fasting:
- Fasting is a shield from Jahannam.
- So, if a person starts the day fasting then he should not do anything ignorantly that day.
- If someone acts ignorantly towards him (the fasting person), he should not revile that person (in retaliation) and abuse him.
- He should (simply) reply, “I am fasting”.
