The month of Ramadhan [is that] in which was revealed the Qur'an, a guidance for the people
O you who have believed, decreed upon you is fasting as it was decreed upon those before you that you may become righteous [2:183]
[Fasting for] a limited number of days. So whoever among you is
ill or on a journey [during them] - then an equal number of days [are
to be made up]. And upon those who are able [to fast, but with hardship]
- a ransom [as substitute] of feeding a poor person [each day]. And
whoever volunteers excess - it is better for him. But to fast is best
for you, if you only knew. [2:184]
The month of Ramadhan [is that] in which was revealed the
Qur'an, a guidance for the people and clear proofs of guidance and
criterion. So whoever sights [the new moon of] the month, let him fast
it; and whoever is ill or on a journey - then an equal number of other
days. Allah intends for you ease and does not intend for you hardship
and [wants] for you to complete the period and to glorify Allah for that
[to] which He has guided you; and perhaps you will be grateful. [2:185]
It has been made permissible for you the night preceding
fasting to go to your wives [for sexual relations]. They are clothing
for you and you are clothing for them. Allah knows that you used to
deceive yourselves, so He accepted your repentance and forgave you. So
now, have relations with them and seek that which Allah has decreed for
you. And eat and drink until the white thread of dawn becomes distinct
to you from the black thread [of night]. Then complete the fast until
the sunset. And do not have relations with them as long as you are
staying for worship in the mosques. These are the limits [set by] Allah ,
so do not approach them. Thus does Allah make clear His ordinances to
the people that they may become righteous. [2:187]
And complete the Hajj and 'umrah for Allah . But if you are
prevented, then [offer] what can be obtained with ease of sacrificial
animals. And do not shave your heads until the sacrificial animal has
reached its place of slaughter. And whoever among you is ill or has an
ailment of the head [making shaving necessary must offer] a ransom of
fasting [three days] or charity or sacrifice. And when you are secure,
then whoever performs 'umrah [during the Hajj months] followed by Hajj
[offers] what can be obtained with ease of sacrificial animals. And
whoever cannot find [or afford such an animal] - then a fast of three
days during Hajj and of seven when you have returned [home]. Those are
ten complete [days]. This is for those whose family is not in the area
of al-Masjid al-Haram. And fear Allah and know that Allah is severe in
penalty. [2:196]
