A Sunnah We Forgot, While Hunger Became Normal - Light Upon Light by IslamiCity

Author: IslamiCity January 20, 2026 Duration: 5:03

Sha‘ban is the month we forget, but the Prophet ﷺ never did.

Before Ramadan began, he fasted more in Sha‘ban than any other month. Not just to feel hunger, but to prepare his heart while deeds are raised to Allah.

Today, millions are fasting without choice.
In Gaza. In Sudan. In places where iftar is not guaranteed.

The Prophet ﷺ said:
“Whoever feeds a fasting person will have a reward like his.”

This episode is a reminder that fasting without compassion is incomplete.

🎧 Listen with your heart.
🤲 Act with your hands.

👉 Join Feeding the Fasting with HADI Relief and turn your fasting into mercy that reaches those who need it most.

Because faith is not only on the prayer mat. It is also at the dinner table.
