Question:
May Allah reward you. People repeat: “Fast and you will be healthy.”
Answer:
There is a hadith reported regarding this, but it is not authentic; it is not established from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). However, fasting undoubtedly benefits the body because of the obedience it contains and because it clears the body of the mixtures of food and trains the body to endure patience, so it brings health. Yes.
