Re: Islamic Fasting

I think you misunderstood my post. Fasting is excellent and required for everyone but what I am saying is that fasting over a 60 or more year period every other day is detremental to health. So figure that you would fast for 180 days this year times 60 years that means you are going to fast for 10,800 days.

Now I know you are doing a water fast for a few days and that is very good but you will not be fasting the entire year and again for 60 years. See now what I mean. I guess I did not explain it well enough.

Now Prophet David did do this and he was in excellent shape. It is not necessary to fast that much. Fasting 3 days a month is sufficient except in a twice a year long fast. Just my opinion.

I have never done a water fast and never intend to. I am going to do a juice fast next week.
