ramadan is the month in which the quran was sent down this book is a perfect guidance for mankind and consists of clear teachings which show the right way and are a criterion of truth and falsehood. therefore from now on whoever witnesses it it is obligatory on hire to fast the whole month but if one be ill or on a journey he should make up for the same number by fasting on other days. allah desires to show leniency to you and does not desire to show any hardship. therefore this method is being shown to you so that you may complete the number of fast days and glorify allah for the guidance he has shown to you and be grateful to him.
شهر رمضان الذي أنزل فيه القرآن هدى للناس وبينات من الهدى والفرقان فمن شهد منكم الشهر فليصمه ومن كان مريضا أو على سفر فعدة من أيام أخر يريد الله بكم اليسر ولا يريد بكم العسر ولتكملوا العدة ولتكبروا الله على ما هداكم ولعلكم تشكرون
