While we may sit inside air-conditioned offices and homes and still complain, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him) busied himself with da’wah in the scorching heat of Arabia. He met people and counseled them regarding their day-to-day affairs. Not only that but he also participated in jihad while fasting. The battle of Badr and Tabouk were fought during this blessed month. When we compare this with our lives the mere commute between work and home seems arduous to us. A Muslim’s approach: When your motivation is declining or when your nafs whispers “rest a while, sleep a little more”, remind yourself of the following: “O you who have believed, decreed upon you is fasting as it was decreed upon those before you that you may become righteous.” [Quran: Chapter 2, Verse 183] This ayah In sha Allah will encourage you to not take fasting as a burden but rather something that was decreed on the previous generations as well. If they could achieve their goals so can we.
