“Let your heart fast too.”
This quote goes beyond abstaining from food and drink — it speaks to the deeper essence of Ramadan.
During Ramadan, fasting is not only physical. It is spiritual and emotional. When we say “Let your heart fast too,” it means:
Let your heart fast from hatred
Let it fast from envy
Let it fast from arrogance
Let it fast from anger
Let it fast from resentment
Just as the body refrains from food, the heart should refrain from negativity.
A true fast is:
A tongue that avoids harmful words
Eyes that avoid what is wrong
Hands that avoid injustice
A heart that avoids bitterness
When the heart fasts, it becomes softer, purer, and closer to Allah. That is when Ramadan transforms from a routine into a renewal.
