Scope of the Hadith: Any Fast Counts

The Prophet ﷺ said:

“Whoever fasts one day in the path of Allah, Allah will distance his face from the Fire by seventy years.”

In this khutbah, we reflect on the deeper meaning of this powerful hadith. We explore what it means to build distance from the Fire, why a believer should never feel secure from it, and why no act of fasting is ever small in the sight of Allah.
