- What is the purpose of fasting? - It's not for atonement, repentance, or physical fitness. - It is to gain piety, being conscious of God, and guarding yourself - Spiritual dimensions of fasting - God has created various powers within us. - We have the soul, conscience, and spirituality - We also hold anger and desire - Constant struggle between the soul, and anger and desires - These dimensions are vital for survival in this world. However a successful human being is he who controls these powers to achieve a balanced personality - This is the 'major jihad', the spiritual struggle within all of us - Ramadhan is an annual training to strengthen our soul and spirit - By abstaining from various activities, we train and strengthen our spirit and soul, increasing our willpower - What is taqwa? - Ties into guarding and shielding yourself - What is the right age for taqwa?
