Okay, in my own religion we fast the first weekend of every month and as a diabetic I have found that I can only reduce the amount of food I eat, but I cannot completely go without food and water. Is it permissable for a muslim to eat small things during the day in Ramadan if they are diabetic? Thanks for your patience. Angela |

Hi Angela, To my knowledge, a Muslim cannot eat or drink anything what so ever when fasting. However, if one cannot fast because of a valid medical reason, one can pay for the food of a hungry person for each day they cannot fast instead (or give actual food rather than money). Allah makes His religion easy for us! Peace, ummziba. ------------- Sticks and stones may break my bones, but your words...they break my soul ~ |

hey, glad you asked that question..
in islam well the way i see it(am not saying other ppl are wrong)..but logically too..if you r sick your God knows that..ur sick..if u r ur not suppose to be fasting God wouldnt like that becuz ur hurting ur self.this goes to pregnant women too..(but they pay up wen they can).so i suggest that u take care of ur health n pray to God.."God Won't Force You".. |
