Is going against my parents will to not to fast a sin or not?

Question

I am going aginst my mommy's will and fasting. She does not want me to fast because she is worried about my health but really there is nothing to worry about.

I am only 14 and i just started high school so she thinks i might get tired and pass out or something.

Is it a sin that i am going against my parent's will and am fasting i mean as a Muslim i have a right and its a pillar of Islam so i have to right.

i cried last night cause they told me i couldn't and i ended up doing it anyway plus today was my 3rd ever time i wanna do it the whole month for ALLAH.

Answer 1

u are right it is every muslim duty to obey Allah and Muhammad(swa) first

after this u obey ur parrents i simply ask u a q. if ur parrents say to shirq u do this or not ? as like it u must obey Allah if ur parrent disturbe u u don't follow ur parrents  

Answer 2

Allah doesn't exist.  Don't put your health at risk for a fictitious being.

Do some research.

Answer 3

hmm.. tricky question.  I've fasted against my parents' wishes before too so I know the situation you're in.

As long as your parents do not ask you to disobey Allah, you have to follow them.  However, you are old enough to fast and you should be fasting when you really want to.

In my personal opinion that carries no weight whatsoever, your fast is valid.  But hiding it from your mommy for a whole month will be very difficult.  Try to talk to her and see if you can reason with her.

A potentially lethal idea would be to tell her after you've fasted for 10 days and say, "see?  nothing's happened!" but you probably would get into a whole lot of trouble!

Answer 4

My dear daughter salam for you.In this case you will not have sin if you

are against with your parents' will,because your mother's will is against with the instruction of Allah for madatory fasting as stated in the Qur'an (surah Al Baqarah verse 183)Your mother is worrying your own health but you said that there is nothing to worry about.

A young 14 years old daughter in islam is recognized as has  been grown up because you have had monthly period.The grown up muslims have mandatory to perform salat or praying at least 5 times a day and also fasting during ramadan except you have a menstruation

You must replace the missed fasting days, after ramadan

Your position is right my dear although all children should respect and love their parents as stated in the Qur'an. You must obey to your parents' instruction or prohibition if it is in line with the Qur'an and Hadits as our life guide..

Answer 5

You are 14, that means it is your obligation to fast as you are no longer a child.

Going to school is NOT one of the things that allow you to break your fast. Plus, it's not unhealthy unless you are ill (with something serious, not the flue). I would think that you are committing a sin if you do not fast. I don't really memorize it but there was a hadith that said something like "breaking a fast on a Ramadan day with no excuse will not be recoverable in 1000 day's fasts" (or something like that).

It's not up to your mother really, because since you are 14 God will say "didn't I tell you that if they ordered you to do something against my (Allah's) orders then do not obey them (in the Quarn)", so you have no excuse here.

You have to fast and you have to explain that to your parents too. I started fasting full days when I was 8 (but not the whole month), I fasted the whole 30 days when I was 12 (wasn't even an "adult" yet then), at your age I fasted in the heat of 55 to 60 degrees centigrade in the shade (aprox. 80 in the sun) for about 16 hours AND went to school.  Count your blessings, and fast.

Answer 6

I know you feel that this is the right thing but you must remember your mother has your best interest in mind.She may be worried your blood sugar will drop and you could fail your courses in school because its hard to pay attention when your brain has no food.Fasting can be beneficial both healthwise and spiritually but your mothers fears are not unfounded. I think you should pray about it and ask for guidance in this matter.

Answer 7

hmmmmmmmm..........you are 14..........its wajib on you.......... your mom should understand that.

talk to her about it.......... maybe she will understand

salam.

Answer 8

Yes you should do it!

You must obey your parents but since it is inflicting with what ALLAH would want you to do, it is okay to disobey them THIS TIME. My dad also said i can't fast during school, but i made it clear to him that i AM going to fast, and that nothing bad will happen as i am doing what Allah would want me to. Talk to them, you will be fine. And do not cry during Ramadan, it is a time to be happy and kind, generous, and improve yoour knowledge of your religion. By crying, you are defying what Ramadan stands for. Be happy this time of month as it is a blessed one! Happy Ramadan (:

Answer 9

Instead of disobeying your mother, why not propose a compromise?  Promise her that you will carry fruit juice and energy bars (or something similar) with you in your knapsack at school.  And with an honest heart, promise that if you feel dizzy at school, you will break your fast.  And really do that, since you shouldn't lie to your parents.

As I understand it, you can make up a day at the end of Ramadan if you miss fasting, so this would be pleasing to God on both ends: you fast, but you also obey your mom.

Good luck, happy Ramadan
