 When we were small, a lot of y'all must have experienced this, when we would be fasting people would be shocked, not even water. That was what we would all be asked, not even water. It was something shocking. And now then this whole awareness came about the health benefits of intermittent fasting. But what I want to mention is that when we have been given the sunnah and the knowledge and the wisdom by Allah SWT about the benefits of our fasting, we should be doing that. So because the intermittent fasting, we know that when a Sahaba came and asked the Prophet SAW how to fast, what is the best way? He said the best of the fast is the fast of the da'ud, which is every alternate day. That is the maximum that we can fast, otherwise we can fast the Monday, Thursday, and 13, 14, 15. But when you do the intermittent fasting, you see that these fasts are there for years or months or days, and that is not how we should be fasting. We shouldn't be depriving of our body of food for 18, 20 hours or days on end. And this also completely messes up our circadian rhythm. They say that they fast, but you see that they stop eating at 6 or 7, and then they start eating again at 6 or 7 in the morning, which is technically not fasting. Or if they go on fasting till 4, they still keep drinking water, green tea, black tea, and coffee and things like that. But as you can see, what I mentioned is when you want to detoxify and you repair your body, you don't want to keep putting in things because your body then is still secreting the enzymes and the hormones and it's still doing the digestion. If you want the maximum benefits of fasting, it is by the Sunna way of fasting, which is then again called as dry fasting in modern science, and they have found that this is what actually gives you the most benefit, the dry fasting, where you completely refrain from food and water for certain hours, inshallah.
