What Happened
As Muslims across South Africa observe the holy month of Ramadan, tomorrow marks the sixth day of fasting. According to reports, the imsak time is set for 05:57, while iftar is scheduled for 18:40.
Why It Matters
Fasting during Ramadan is a significant religious obligation for Muslims, reflecting discipline, righteousness, and unwavering faith. The sixth day of Ramadan emphasizes sincerity, patience, and obedience to Allah, as highlighted in the Quran. Observing the fast with honesty and devotion is believed to elevate a believer’s spiritual rank and invite Allah’s mercy and blessings.
What’s Next
As the month progresses, Muslims will continue to observe Sehri before dawn and break their fast at sunset. Accurate timings for Sehri and iftar are essential, as they shift slightly each day in accordance with the sun’s position. The community is encouraged to maintain these timings to uphold their spiritual practices effectively.
May Allah accept your fast!
