Description
Fasting in Islam provides a comprehensive exploration of this essential practice of ritual worship in Islam. Shaykh Fadhlalla Haeri examines the health benefits of fasting, Qur'anic injunctions to fast, Prophetic hadith, and legal regulations according to both Sunni and Shiʻite schools of law. As a spiritual philosopher and master of self-knowledge, Shaykh Haeri offers practical, actionable knowledge that leads to self-transformation. His work provides a natural bridge between Eastern and Western approaches to spirituality, as well as offering a common ground for various religions, sects, and secular outlooks. Through his extensive travels and teaching experience, Shaykh Haeri has distilled the essence of Islamic heritage and its relevance to modern times. This book is an invaluable resource for those seeking to deepen their understanding of fasting in Islam and its significance in the broader context of spiritual growth and self-discovery.
