Fasting requires restraint of all the limbs

 

"O ye who believe! Fasting is prescribed to you as it was prescribed to those before so that you may attain taqwa." (Surat-ul Baqarah, 2:183)

 

In order to increase the level of taqwa attained, Muslims should refrain from any behavior that may jeopardize the rewards from fasting. Abu Hurairah Radi Allahu anhu reported that the Prophet Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam said: "Fasting is not only abstaining from eating and drinking, but also from vain speech and foul language. If one of you is being cursed or annoyed, he should say: "I am fasting, I am fasting."

 

Abu Hurairah Radi Allahu anhu also reported that the Prophet Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam said: "Whoever does not abandon obscene speech and evil action, Allah does not need his refraining from eating and drinking." [bukhari]

 

Frankly, Muslims who engage in lying (even to joke with false statements), backbiting, gossip, spreading rumors, and causing Fitnah (confusion, dissent) cannot expect their fasts to be acceptable to Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala. Therefore when you fast, let your hearing, sight, tongue and all your limbs fast, so that your fasting and non-fasting days are not the same.

The bounties of Ramadhan are unimaginable. The rewards that Allah Ta'ala showers on us are countless. May Allah Ta'ala forgive us for the sake of the blessed month of Ramadhan and glance at us with His Mercy and free us from the fire of Hell. Aameen

Indeed fasting has been ordained to apply to each and every limb of the human body. Here is my another contribution to this thread .

 

Fasting of the tongue: is to restrain it from wrongs it is liable to commit.

 

Fasting of the ear: is to restrain it from listening to profane talk.

 

Fasting of the eyes: means abstinence from obscene scenes or sights for fun anf frolic.

 

Fasting by the inner self: is to get rid of greed and passion.

 

Fasting by the heart: is to cast out love of worldly things.

 

Fasting of the spirit: is to refrain imagining to oneself the pleasure of the Herefater.

 

Fastng ff the soul; is the total rejection of all except Allah Subhanahu wa Ta'ala
