This is the Fasting section, with lessons on fasting in Ramadan and beyond. There are five pages. What Is Fasting covers the basics: what fasting is, its place among the five pillars, its time and its intention. What Breaks the Fast and What Does Not separates the clear cases from the matters scholars discuss. Who Is Excused From Fasting covers illness, travel, menstruation, the elderly, and pregnancy and nursing. Making Up Fasts, Fidya and Kaffarah explains three terms that are often confused. And Voluntary Fasting Beyond Ramadan covers the extra fasts the Prophet, peace be upon him, encouraged, and the moderation he taught. Several lessons have their own narration. For questions about your own situation, ask a qualified scholar or teacher.
