The command, the exemption, the month, the nearness, and the two edges of the day — Allah placed them in one unbroken passage. Tap any āyah to copy it.
يَـٰٓأَيُّهَا ٱلَّذِينَ ءَامَنُواْ كُتِبَ عَلَيْكُمُ ٱلصِّيَامُ كَمَا كُتِبَ عَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِكُمْ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَتَّقُونَ
“O you who have believed, fasting has been decreed upon you as it was decreed upon those before you — that you may become mindful of Allah.”
The purpose: taqwā, not hunger. An ancient worship, given to every people before us — you join a line that reaches back to the prophets.
أَيَّامٗا مَّعْدُودَٰتٖۚ فَمَن كَانَ مِنكُم مَّرِيضًا أَوْ عَلَىٰ سَفَرٖ فَعِدَّةٞ مِّنْ أَيَّامٍ أُخَرَۚ وَعَلَى ٱلَّذِينَ يُطِيقُونَهُۥ فِدْيَةٞ طَعَامُ مِسْكِينٖۖ فَمَن تَطَوَّعَ خَيْرٗا فَهُوَ خَيْرٞ لَّهُۥۚ وَأَن تَصُومُواْ خَيْرٞ لَّكُمْ إِن كُنتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ
“A limited number of days. So whoever among you is ill or on a journey — then an equal number of other days. And upon those who can bear it only with hardship — a ransom of feeding a poor person. And whoever volunteers good, it is better for him. And it is better for you that you fast, if only you knew.”
The mercy and the invitation: the excused are named here, and so is voluntary excess — tatawwuʿ. Every extra fast in this app rests on this word.
شَهْرُ رَمَضَانَ ٱلَّذِيٓ أُنزِلَ فِيهِ ٱلْقُرْءَانُ هُدٗى لِّلنَّاسِ وَبَيِّنَٰتٖ مِّنَ ٱلْهُدَىٰ وَٱلْفُرْقَانِۚ فَمَن شَهِدَ مِنكُمُ ٱلشَّهْرَ فَلْيَصُمْهُۖ وَمَن كَانَ مَرِيضًا أَوْ عَلَىٰ سَفَرٖ فَعِدَّةٞ مِّنْ أَيَّامٍ أُخَرَۗ يُرِيدُ ٱللَّهُ بِكُمُ ٱلْيُسْرَ وَلَا يُرِيدُ بِكُمُ ٱلْعُسْرَ وَلِتُكْمِلُواْ ٱلْعِدَّةَ وَلِتُكَبِّرُواْ ٱللَّهَ عَلَىٰ مَا هَدَىٰكُمْ وَلَعَلَّكُمْ تَشْكُرُونَ
“The month of Ramaḍān — in which the Qur'ān was revealed, a guidance for mankind and clear proofs of guidance and criterion… Allah intends for you ease and does not intend for you hardship — and that you complete the count, and magnify Allah for having guided you, and that you may be grateful.”
The month named: Ramaḍān is honoured because the Revelation descended in it — “in a blessed night” (44:3), Laylat al‑Qadr, “better than a thousand months” (97:3).
وَإِذَا سَأَلَكَ عِبَادِي عَنِّي فَإِنِّي قَرِيبٌۖ أُجِيبُ دَعْوَةَ ٱلدَّاعِ إِذَا دَعَانِۖ فَلْيَسْتَجِيبُواْ لِي وَلْيُؤْمِنُواْ بِي لَعَلَّهُمْ يَرْشُدُونَ
“And when My servants ask you concerning Me — indeed I am near. I respond to the call of the caller when he calls upon Me. So let them respond to Me and believe in Me, that they may be rightly guided.”
Placed deliberately: a verse about answered duʿāʾ dropped into the middle of the verses of fasting. “Three whose supplication is not refused — the fasting person until he breaks his fast.” (Ibn Mājah 1752) So ask, in the last minutes before iftār.
أُحِلَّ لَكُمْ لَيْلَةَ ٱلصِّيَامِ ٱلرَّفَثُ إِلَىٰ نِسَآئِكُمْۚ … وَكُلُواْ وَٱشْرَبُواْ حَتَّىٰ يَتَبَيَّنَ لَكُمُ ٱلْخَيْطُ ٱلْأَبْيَضُ مِنَ ٱلْخَيْطِ ٱلْأَسْوَدِ مِنَ ٱلْفَجْرِۖ ثُمَّ أَتِمُّواْ ٱلصِّيَامَ إِلَى ٱلَّيْلِۚ … تِلْكَ حُدُودُ ٱللَّهِ فَلَا تَقْرَبُوهَاۗ
“…and eat and drink until the white thread of dawn becomes distinct to you from the black thread; then complete the fast until night… These are the limits of Allah, so do not approach them.”
The two edges of the day: this āyah is the reason the orb above exists — suḥūr closes at Fajr, the fast completes at sunset. The night belongs to you; the day belongs to Him.

13th, 14th, and 15th of every lunar month when the moon is full. Fasting three days monthly equates to a perpetual lifetime of reward.
“Deeds are presented on Monday and Thursday, and I love that my deeds be presented while I am fasting.” (at-Tirmidhī 747)
For those not performing Hajj: “It expiates the sins of the past year and the coming year.” (Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 1162)
Commemorating the salvation of Mūsā. “It expiates the sins of the previous year.” Best paired with the 9th or 11th.
“Whoever fasts Ramaḍān and follows it with six days of Shawwāl, it is as if he fasted for a lifetime.” (Muslim 1164)

Authentic sayings of the Prophet ﷺ on the unique honour bestowed upon the fasting servant.
إِنَّ فِي الْجَنَّةِ بَابًا يُقَالُ لَهُ الرَّيَّانُ يَدْخُلُ مِنْهُ الصَّائِمُونَ
“In Paradise there is a gate called Ar-Rayyān through which only those who fasted will enter on the Day of Resurrection.”
كُلُّ عَمَلِ ابْنِ آدَمَ لَهُ إِلَّا الصِّيَامَ فَإِنَّهُ لِي وَأَنَا أَجْزِي بِهِ
“Every deed of the son of Adam is for him except fasting; it is for Me, and I shall reward it directly.”
لِلصَّائِمِ فَرْحَتَانِ: فَرْحَةٌ عِنْدَ فِطْرِهِ، وَفَرْحَةٌ عِنْدَ لِقَاءِ رَبِّهِ
“The fasting person has two moments of joy: one when he breaks his fast, and one when he meets his Lord.”
الصِّيَامُ جُنَّةٌ يَسْتَجِنُّ بِهَا الْعَبْدُ مِنَ النَّارِ
“Fasting is a protective shield with which a servant protects himself from the Fire.”
الصِّيَامُ وَالْقُرْآنُ يَشْفَعَانِ لِلْعَبْدِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ
“Fasting and the Qur’ān will intercede for the servant on the Day of Resurrection.”

Authentic prayers taught by the Prophet ﷺ for the time of breaking fast and spiritual focus.
ذَهَبَ الظَّمَأُ وَابْتَلَّتِ الْعُرُوقُ وَثَبَتَ الأَجْرُ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ
Dhahaba aẓ-ẓama’u wabtallat al-ʿurūqu wa thabata al-ajru in shā’ Allāh
“The thirst has gone, the veins are moistened, and the reward is confirmed, if Allah wills.”
أَفْطَرَ عِنْدَكُمُ الصَّائِمُونَ وَأَكَلَ طَعَامَكُمُ الأَبْرَارُ وَصَلَّتْ عَلَيْكُمُ الْمَلائِكَةُ
Afṭara ʿindakum aṣ-ṣā’imūna wa akala ṭaʿāmakum al-abrāru wa ṣallat ʿalaykum al-malā’ikah
“May the fasting break their fast with you, may the righteous eat your food, and may the angels pray for you.”
إِنِّي صَائِمٌ ، إِنِّي صَائِمٌ
Innī ṣā’im, innī ṣā’im
“Indeed, I am fasting; indeed, I am fasting.”
اللَّهُمَّ إِنَّكَ عَفُوٌّ تُحِبُّ الْعَفْوَ فَاعْفُ عَنِّي
Allāhumma innaka ʿafuwwun tuḥibbu al-ʿafwa faʿfu ʿannī
“O Allah, You are Pardoning, You love to pardon, so pardon me.”
“Allah intends for you ease and does not intend for you hardship.” (2:185) Fasting is worship, not endurance sport — the Qur'ān names the excused in the same breath as the command.
Whoever is sick fasts a like number of days once health returns. Harming the body is not piety.
“…or on a journey — then an equal number of other days.” Fast if easy for you, break it if it is not; both are permitted.
The permanently ill and the very elderly feed a poor person for each day — fidyah, in place of the fast.
Placed by the scholars under hardship and illness; the Prophet ﷺ named them alongside the traveller in being granted relief.
She does not fast during it and makes up the days afterwards — no sin, no shortfall in her faith.
No obligation before puberty. They are encouraged gently, given the joy of iftār, never burdened.
“…then an equal number of other days.” Keep the count honest — it is a debt of worship, not a shame.
Where the Qur'ān speaks, it is quoted. Where it is silent, the Sunnah explains. For anything specific to your body or country, ask a qualified scholar.
The intention is a firm resolve in the heart to fast for the sake of Allah alone. It does not require reciting a verbal phrase, although articulating it quietly can help focus the mind.
نَوَيْتُ صَوْمَ غَدٍ لِلَّهِ تَعَالَى
“I intend to fast tomorrow for the sake of Allah Most High.”
For obligatory Ramaḍān fasts, make the resolve anytime between sunset and dawn.
