Join Rana Ata-ul-Rehman for Monday’s show from 4-6pm where we will be discussing: ‘Ramadan health benefits’ and ‘Promised Messiah (as): Claims’

Ramadan health benefits

During the month of Ramadan, Muslims fast from predawn to sunset. Several studies have indicated intermittent fasting is a safe approach to lower the risks of diabetes and heart-related diseases. Fasting is thus an excellent discipline that trains the mind and body to cope with crisis, anger, hunger, and thirst. Join us as we explore this topic further in light of Islamic teachings on the benefits of fasting for our health.
