There's a lot more to it than i thought, i still probably need to do reasearch of my own i guess, but on these points i'm clearer thank you again.

as salam alykom not confused Anya


let us put it this way, as far as u need righ now is to know that fasting is either:


1. Compulsory obligatory (in Arabic it is called fard) which is only the month of Ramadan.


2. Voluntary (in Arabic tata`uw) which is recommended according to the Sunnah of the Messenger (salla Allah a`alyhee wa sallam) in different occaisons.


U need to focus now on Ramadan as it is coming Insh a Allah in less than 15 days.


During fasting, u need to observe the fast which is to refrain from eating, drinking and intercourse as from Fajr (dawn) till maghreb (sun set). U may use Islamicfinder to see timings, or u may refer to your local masjed for this.


U also need to control your temper even if someone attacks u verbally or stresses u. Because fasting is not only to refrain from food and drink but also to help us instill Islamic moral and teachings in dealing with people. Believe me dealing with people is the real criteria for one's strive on the path of piety.


I d like to go step by step so that u dont get overwhelmed.


Alhamdulelah Radiyah cleared up the rest of the points
