Swam is an
Arabic language which means to keep fast. In details, it can be said that to
starve from all types of foods and drinking is called swam or fasting. Fasting
starts from the first day of the month of Ramadan from midnight to the sunset. Ramadan is the month of having patience, saying
prayers and deep thought of the almighty Allah, even to stop all sorts of conjugal
life’s activities while keeping fast from midnight to the sunset. Fasting is in
number fourth of the five bases of Islam. Fasting is the main spiritual and
mental training for all the human beings. Through fasting we can understand the
distress or pain of the hungry people. Fasting teaches us to have patience
while we are in great trouble. Allah has promised us (in the holy Quran) to give the highest gift
of fasting with his own hand. In the month of Ramadan people’ prayers are
granted by Allah easily. If anyone does one good work in this month he will be
given the goodness or virtue of seventy good works out of this month. The
importance of this month is indescribable. If we follow the rules of the month
of Ramadan, we will be able to lead the best lives up to death.
