Answer 2

That really is no reason.

I'm only 13 and had to run around my school. (5 flights of stairs might I add.)

I'm about to drop dead.

But really, other then now I'm not complaining. You just need to ignore it.

Distract yourself with work, or a book or something. Hang on there, it's not that bad.

And to the answerer's above, you guys really have alot of respect for others beliefs don't you?

Answer 3

Nothing will happen to you.

Answer 4

there aren't any as long as u plan to make it up

Answer 5

A woman did not fast in Ramadaan for three days, with no excuse, rather she did that out of heedlessness. What is the ruling on that, and what does she have to do?.

Praise be to Allaah.  

If the situation is as described, and this lady did not fast three days of Ramadaan out of heedlessness and not because she believed it was permissible to do so, then she has committed a serious major sin by violating the sanctity of Ramadaan. Fasting Ramadaan is one of the pillars of Islam, because Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

“O you who believe! Observing As-Sawm (the fasting) is prescribed for you as it was prescribed for those before you, that you may become Al-Muttaqoon (the pious).

[Observing Sawm (fasts)] for a fixed number of days, but if any of you is ill or on a journey, the same number (should be made up) from other days. And as for those who can fast with difficulty, (e.g. an old man), they have (a choice either to fast or) to feed a Miskeen (poor person) (for every day). But whoever does good of his own accord, it is better for him. And that you fast is better for you if only you know.

The month of Ramadan in which was revealed the Qur’aan, a guidance for mankind and clear proofs for the guidance and the criterion (between right and wrong). So whoever of you sights (the crescent on the first night of) the month (of Ramadan i.e. is present at his home), he must observe Sawm (fasts) that month”

[al-Baqarah 2:183-185]

So she must fast three days to make up for those days when she did not fast. If she had intercourse during the day on those three days when she did not fast, she must also offer expiation (kafaarah) for that day as well as making up the fast. If she had intercourse on two days then she must offer two expiations, as well as making up two days. The expiation is to free a slave; if that is not possible then she must fast for two consecutive months; if she is unable to do that then she must feed sixty poor persons from the local staple food. She must also seek the forgiveness of Allaah and repent to Him; she must observe the fasts that Allaah has enjoined on her and sincerely resolve not to break her fast in Ramadaan again. She must also feed one poor person for each of the three days because of her delay in making up the fasts until after the following Ramadaan.

And Allaah knows best.

Answer 6

that is one reason I'm glad I'm a Christian. I don't have to fast. And to be punished for the way God made your body for wanting and needing food doesnt make sense to me

Answer 7

Islam is a religion with full of love, care and justice. Islam never forced its followers to follow its way unless on certain important matters but Islam do outline "rukhsoh", translated as "exceptions". In the case of "sawum" or fasting in Ramadhan el Mubarak several kind of people are allowed to break their fasting, they include: pregnant lady, breastfeed mother, "musafir", "fisabilillah", very old people, heavy workers and people who suffered severe illnesses. As if you are included in one of these group of people, you're forgiven and you're required to pay "fidyah" in exchange of your fast beside reperformed your fast.

Answer 8

It depends what faith you are following.

According to Shia faith if you eat something while you are fasting during Ramadan you have have done a big sin and you have to free a slave if you have one:) or you have to feed 60 poor people if you can or you have to fast 2 month .

So better not to eat anything :)
