Roza ka Haqeeqi Maqsad - The True Purpose of Fasting - Dr Israr Ahmad

This lecture clarifies the core purpose of fasting in Islam, explaining it is not merely abstaining from food and drink, but cultivating *taqwa* – a shield against disobedience to God. The speaker highlights that the obligation of fasting existed in previous scriptures for Jews and Christians, though the specific regulations differed. *Taqwa* is defined as actively avoiding prohibited actions and striving to obey God's commands in all aspects of life, safeguarding oneself from divine wrath and ensuring salvation in the afterlife. The lecture emphasizes that cultivating *taqwa* throughout life leads to protection from the hellfire and attainment of divine grace.
