about denying your body food and water. It also involves arguably themore taxing challenge of avoiding ill speech, arguments, loss of temperand malicious behavior. The whole point of the fast is to demonstrate
submission to God and keep the mind focused on a spiritual plane.
Happy Fasting to all Muslims!
