Fasting In Ramadan as observed by the Prophet (Peace be Upon Him) by Saleem al-Hilaalee and 'Alee Abdul Hameed

The definitive guide to fasting for every Muslim as elucidated by the Prophet (Salallahu Alayhi Wa Salaam)

The eminent scholars sheikh Saleem al-Hilaalee and Sheikh 'Alee Hasan 'Alee 'Abdur Hameed, have managed to produce an original work, collecting the ahadeeth of the Prophet Salallahu Alayhi Wa Salaam and the sayings of the companions, as well as the understanding of the early scholars from over one hundred authorative sources. Furthermore, they have verified the ahadeeth and brought them together under a number of headings, including: Sighting of the Moon, Lailatul Qadr, Taraaweeh Prayers, Zakaatul Fitr and I'tikaaf.

'...O brotherm may Allag unite us upon love of him and upon following the sunnah of his Messenger Salallahu Alayhi Wa Salaam. The status of fasting and its place in Islam will become clear to us and also the great reward awaiting the one who fasts seeking the face of Allah, and how that reward increases or decreases depending on its closeness to the Sunnah of the Messenger Salallahu Alayhi Wa Salaam, as was indicated by the best of the children if Aadam Alayhi Wa Salaam who said:

"Perhaps a person fasting will receive nothing from his fasting except hunger and thirst."

Therefore, we must know the characteristics of the Prophet's fast; its obligatory duties, it's manners and related supplications - and them put that into practice.'
