Fasabbih bihamdi rabbika waistaghfirhu innahu kana tawwaban
तो अपने रब की प्रशंसा करो और उससे क्षमा चाहो।
निस्संदेह वह बड़ा तौबा क़बूल करनेवाला है
Then exalt [Him] with praise of your Lord and ask forgiveness of Him.
Indeed, He is ever Accepting of repentance.

रमज़ान में एक दिन के उपवास का महत्व
हज़रत अबू हुरैराह रदियअल्लाहु अन्ह से रिवायत है कि
रसूल अल्लाह सल्लल्लाहु अलैहि वसल्लम ने फ़रमाया!
जो शख़्स रमज़ान का एक रोज़ा भी बिना आज़ादी के (सफ़र और
बीमारी के बग़ैर) छोड़ दे, फिर मुद्दत अल अम्र उसकी तलाफ़ी
के लिए रोज़े रखे तब भी एक रोज़े की कमी पूरी न होगी।
(तिरमिज़ी, अबूदाउद)
The Importance of Fasting for One Day in Ramadan
It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: Whoever leaves even one day of fasting in Ramadan without a valid excuse (such as travel or illness), then even if they were to fast for the rest of their life to make up for it, it would not be sufficient. (Tirmidhi, Abu Dawood)
aintaining stable blood sugar levels is crucial for overall health where regular consumption of high-sugar and carbohydrate foods is a risk factor for developing diabetes later on in life, especially if there is a family history of diabetes. Incorporating the right foods into your diet can play a pivotal role in achieving a balance.
In an interview with HT Lifestyle, Dr Lalitha Palle, Founder of Moder/ate & ForMen, advised to focus on nutrient-dense options that won't cause abrupt blood sugar spikes and crashes and suggested some Indian foods that do not raise blood sugar -

  1. Switch from white rice to red or brown rice or quinoa. The red/brown rice may have the same calories but will not spike your post-meal blood sugar as much.
  2. Incorporate millet / jowar flour instead of maida.
  3. Include as many lentils and beans as kidney beans and black beans as they do not cause significant blood sugar spikes.
  4. Add dals like Channa Dal and Moong dal to the diet to the extent possible.
  5. Include leafy greens like spinach and kale and antioxidant-packed berries such as blueberries and raspberries offer vitamins and fiber without causing spikes in blood sugar.
  6. Avocados if available and nuts like almonds and walnuts and olive oil provide healthy fats, contributing to stable blood sugar levels.
  7. Salmon, rich in omega-3 fatty acids, supports heart health with minimal impact on blood sugar.
  8. Cauliflower and broccoli are versatile, low-carb substitutes, while chia seeds offer sustained energy without spikes.
  9. Garlic's potential in regulating blood sugar adds flavour to meals.
  10. Eggs and Greek yogurt, high in protein, are low-carb options promoting stable blood sugar.
    She added, “Most importantly, while having meals, make sure that you get the order right. Eat the salad/ veggies first followed by proteins and fats. Carbs and sugars must be had last. In addition to these foods, moderation is key to maintaining a balanced diet. Unique product like moder/ate will also help in reducing the amount of sugars and carbs entering the body. It can be a valuable asset on your journey toward optimal health, while yet consuming your favorite foods.”
