Salah a prayer you start off with that pillar you offer the compulsory obligatory

three units of

solatul Madhrib, the Maghary prayer,

and then you sit again and you're calling out to Allah again,

you raise your hands again, you say, oh Allah Allah except what I just did in terms of

acts of worship what did you do I tell you what you did you stayed away from

things that are otherwise permissible I mean what you started eating and drinking is something halal it's permissible it was

always halal but when Allah told you not to eat halal through the day In Ramadan you didn't. It should make it much easier for you to

appreciate the halal when Allah says now you may eat it and it should make it even more easier for you to abstain from something

harm that you're not supposed to be doing anyway. This is where the discipline comes in. This is why we say

fasting brings about discipline, the month of discipline Ramavan, because if I could

stay away from something permissible, water and drink and so on, food, that's okay.

I surely can stay away from that which is prohibited for the pleasure of Allah, Subhana, how Tada.
