Topic: Fasting to Lose Weight   (No-8066)

Q If I fast in order to lose weight, do I still receive the reward of fasting?

aIt is necessary to make the intention for worship when fasting. Any physical or worldly benefits (such as weight loss) one gets from fasting do not reduce the reward of fasting, as long as the correct intention is made.

صحیح البخاری: (رقم الحدیث: 1)
عن عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏يَقُولُ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّمَا الْأَعْمَالُ بِالنِّيَّاتِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَإِنَّمَا لِكُلِّ امْرِئٍ مَا نَوَى، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَمَنْ كَانَتْ هِجْرَتُهُ إِلَى دُنْيَا يُصِيبُهَا أَوْ إِلَى امْرَأَةٍ يَنْكِحُهَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَهِجْرَتُهُ إِلَى مَا هَاجَرَ إِلَيْهِ.
