تفسیرآیات 183 تا 185 بقره(2)
ادامه از قبل: برای جلب توجه و جذابیت با عبارت"یا ایهاالذین امنوا"، آغاز می کند. سپس می فرماید: روزه فقط برای مسلمان ها نیست بلکه قبلا هم بوده است.
امام صادق علیه السلام: این عبارت، سختی این عبادت را می زداید.
روزه برای تمام سال نیست بلکه فقط برای مدت کوتاهی است. هر که مریض یا در سفر است، بعدا به این تعداد روزها، روزه بگیرد. هر کس برایش روزه گرفتن دشوار است، به فقرا اطعام دهد:
from previous
is in summer, there are different particular meanings used in the above verse to make the mind of believers ready for the acceptance of this decree
To attract the attentions and to make the subject an interesting one for the addressees, it begins with the phrase
” O’ you who have Faith “
Then, it refers to the statement of the fact that fasting is not appointed only for Muslim Ummah but it had been practised by the former nations, too
Finally, the philosophy of fasting, and that the fruitful results of this Divinely ordered duty return totally to you, is stated
A tradition narrated from Imam Sadiq (a.s.) says
” The pleasure found in the phrase:( ‘ O’ you who have Faith! ‘ is so that) it has removed the tiredness of this worship and effort.” (1
In the next verse, again, in order to reduce the hardship of fasting, it states a few other commands regarding this. It initiates the subject thus
“Fast for a certain number of day
It is not so that you be obliged to fast all the year through or a considerable part of it, but fasting is for only a small section of the year. Another matter is that
“…But whoever among you is sick or on a journey, then (he shall fast) the same number of other days
Then there comes the third group, those who are absolutely unable to fast, such as elderly men, elderly women, the constant patients with chronic diseases, where it says
“… and for those who are hardly able to do it, (there is) a redemption by feeding an indigent
“… But whoever volunteers to do good, it is better for him
