Introduction
"Ramadan is the (month) in which the Quran was sent down, as a guide to mankind and a clear guidance and judgement (so that mankind will distinguish from right and wrong).."(Q 2:183) "Oh you who believe! Fasting is prescribed to you as it was prescribed to those before you, that you many learn piety and righteousness" (Q 2:183)
Dear Reader, Ramadan is month where Muslims all over the world look forward to. It is a time of cleansing our faith, seeking forgiveness and taking abstinence from the one thing all humans need during daylight hours. Also, it educates and reinforces our behaviours positively during Ramadan and beyond. Iving those less fortunate. We are encouraged to give more, pray more, recite more and reect more. Whilst, we are required to abstain from any food or water from sunrise to sunset and stay away from those acts which give us sins, this magazine has been put together to give us those little reminders and knowledge needed. This magazine will highlight and educate all its readers about fasting, reasons for fasting, how to best fast considering our health and following the principles of our Prophet (SAW). It is worth noting that Muslims who can not fast have other means to make this up and as such discussed in the pages to come. Giving Zakat (another pillar of Islam) is also written about. It also about sharing and as such we wish to share some recipes for you to try this month (and beyond) and have fun with them. This magazine is aimed at educating its readers in any way that it can, connecting consumers to local businesses and lastly supporting charities that are also in turn feeding those in need. We wish you a very healthy, blessed and joyful Ramadan and may Allah accept all our prayers, fasts and good deeds.
