As the month of Ramadan approaches, many Muslims will be determined to cut down on the food they waste.
“O children of Adam! Eat and drink freely, but do not waste for Allah does not love the wasteful.” [Surah Al A’raf 7:31]
Prophet Muhammad said:
“Sufficient food for the son of Adam is enough to keep his back straight.”
It is customary in Ramadan for people to share their food and give to the poor. Muslims need direction about how we can practically live the values of our religion. People need to change their way of thinking. The children of wealthy people need to take food to their less wealthy neighbours, instead of always expecting the poor to come begging to the rich. This is more dignified; and this is what my religion says. We also need to minimize wasting of food not just in the month of Ramadan, but throughout the year.
