Monitor your Food and Drink
In Ramadan, Allah shows us that eating twice a day (iftar and suhur) is enough for us to sustain ourselves. This fast should show us to return to what is essential, rather than chasing excess. This is particularly relevant to food – we should not be eating so much for iftar that we find ourselves falling asleep and neglecting the benefits of Ramadan such as taraweeh! If we intend to follow the sunnah of the Prophet (saw), then we should never bloat ourselves, as the Prophet (saw) said about our stomachs, “if he (a son of Adam) must eat, then a third for his food, a third for his drink, and a third for his breath.”
