Fasting
is such a prayer which has no substitute. Its enormous benefits and endless
bearings may not be covered even in thousands of folios. In brief, the fasting
is the panacea for all physical maladies and the effective stimulator of
spiritual values, and the invincible castle against the evils. The fast
observant shall make their entry into the paradise through a special Inlet,
called "Rayyan Gateway". The fast shall come on Dooms Day as an
Intercessor for those who had welcomed it with all respects and regards.
Fasting actually refines the body from all the impurities and expedites the
influx of gleamy lights in the man. This influx accelerates his phrenology to
such an extent that the angels appear to his bare to his eyes and he finds his
soul hovering around the unseen world.
Fasting
is the prayer which has been prescribed unexceptionably for the followers of
all the Messengers, as Allah says in the Holy Quran:
"O Believers: Fasting is
prescribed for you as it was prescribed for those, prior to you, perchance you
fear (Allah)".
The
pious persons have been defined by Allah as those who have credence in unseen.
The credence in unseen, in spiritual parlance, is that invisible may turn
visible because the visual observation is complementary to the credence, and
fasting leads the bondsman to such a venue where invisible becomes a credence
and belief.

Dedicated to those scientists, who are inching towards the cognizance of the facts, spotlighted by Allah Almighty, in the wake of their intelligent observation for the top vertex of scientific achievement, which is not other than the "Disastrous end of the Universe". And this is probably during 15th century of Lunar calendar.
