Ginny once wrote a piece about fasting entitled “It’s Just Not about Food.”
She’s right. According to what the Moslems believe, when they are fasting, it’s not only about giving up food and drink, it’s more like training their soul.
I have mentioned earlier that not only fasting can help their physical health but it also can help their mental health.
By fasting, Moslems are training the soul, learning self-restraint, self-control, and patience. This way, they learn to see life in a more peaceful way. It will end them up to reduce the risk of getting stressed out which will get them to become mentally healthy.
Briefly, just like in other religions, such as Christian or Jew, fasting is always positive in result.
