In Islam there's a term called Rukhsah (ra wau kha sin hah). It means kelonggaran (sumpah x ter recall kelonggaran in English apa dia). There's a lot of rules we need to follow as a Muslim. These rules are set for our own benefit. However,being human, nobody is created perfect except for the Prophets. Thus, Allah created this Rukhsah to make it easy for us.
Since this is Ramadhan I would focus on Rukhsah on fasting. Breastfeeding mothers, pregnant ladies, sick person all are allowed not to fast during Ramadhan. But of course u hv to fast in other months to make it up. And if u r in musaffir.. in a journey somewhere.. u r allowed not to fast.
Why I keep thinking about this... I heard a news today that one of the manager in construction site here passed away in the flight from USA to AUH and he was fasting at that time. Well.. Allah knows best. He created the Rukhsah for a reason. Use it.. dont just because u r lazy to pay back u r willing to suffer during this period. This is also not a good example to other religion.. They will think Islam is difficult while it is actually beautiful...
Just my two cents...
