Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Umar Farooq Saeedi
Benefits and Issues:
Eating is an inherent part of human nature, but in following the Shariah, the pre-dawn meal (suhoor) becomes a blessed meal.
Since the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is the conveyor of revelation and does not speak from his own desire, therefore, even if a person does not feel inclined to eat suhoor, he should at least take a few morsels, or a date, or a few sips of some drink, so that he may attain a share of this blessing.
