INFO ABOUT FAST AND RAMADAN

Fast is a hidden form of worship; no one come to know about your fast until you tell it to others. Allah عزوجل  likes hidden worship more. A blessed Hadis says: "Fast is the door of worship".
(Al-Jami-us-Saghir, page#146 Hadith#2415)


روزہ  باطنی  عبادت  ہے ، کیوں کہ  ہمارے  بتاۓ  بغیر  کسی  کو  یہ  علم نہیں  ہو  سکتا  کہ  ہمارا  روزہ  ہے اور  اللہ  عزوجل  باطنی  عبادت  کو  زیادہ  پسند  فرماتا  ہے. ایک حدیث پاک کے  مطابق  روزہ  عبادت  کا دروازہ  ہے .
(الجامع الصغیر ، ص #١٤٦ حدیث#٢٤١٥ )


Ramdan is a blessed and sacred month in which Allah عزوجل  revealed the Holy Quran. He    عزوجل mentions the revealation of the Holy Quran and Ramadan in these words:

translation:"The month of Ramadan in which was sent down the Quran - the guidance for mankind, the direction and the clear criteria(to judge between right and wrong). So whoever among you finds this month must fast for the (whole) month, and whoever is sick or on a journey may fast the same number in other days. Allah  عزوجل desires ease for you and he does not desire hardship for you so that you complete the count(of fast) and glorify Allah's greatness for having guided you, and so that you may be grateful.
[Kanz-ul-iman(Translation of Quran)](Part#2, Surah Baqarah, verse#185)

رمضان  کی  ایک  خصوصیت  یہ  بھی  ہے  کہ  اللہ   عزوجل  نے  اس  مبارک  مہینے  میں قرآن  پاک  نازل  فرمایا . چنانچہ  مقدّس  قرآن  میں  خداۓ  رحمٰن  کا  فرمان  عالیشان   ہے 
ترجمہ  کنز الایمان :رمضان  کا  مہینہ ، جس میں  قرآن  اترا ،لوگوں  کے  لیے  رہنمائی  اور  فیصلہ  کی  روشن  باتیں ، تو  تم  میں  سے  جو کوئی  یہ  مہینہ  پاۓ اس  کے  روزے  رکھے  اور  جو  بیمار یا  سفر  میں  ہو تو  اتنے  روزے  اور  دنوں  میں.اللہ  عزوجل  تم  پر  آسانی  چاہتا  ہے اور تم  پر  دشواری  نہیں  چاہتا اور اسلئے  کہ  تم  گنتی پوری  کرو  اور  اللہ   عزوجل کی  بڑآئ  بولو  اور  اس  پر کہ  اس  نے تمہیں  ہدایت  کی  اور کہیں  تم  حق  گزار  ہو
