Full Talk: The Benefits of Fasting
Many students will be taking their exams during the blessed month of Ramadan this year, but will fasting serve as a hinderance, or boost their abilities?
In this brief excerpt, Shaykh Riyadh ul Haq will explain how fasting was used by Greek philosophers to increase their intellectual ability before taking exams and would even go as far as to instruct their students to do the same. Fasting has many mental and spiritual benefits; and it is a practice still used today by many academics and athletes.
