Ayah 185

Surah Al-Baqara

The month of Ramadhan [is that] in which was revealed the Qur'an, a guidance for the people and clear proofs of guidance and criterion. So whoever sights [the new moon of] the month, let him fast it; and whoever is ill or on a journey - then an equal number of other days. Allah intends for you ease and does not intend for you hardship and [wants] for you to complete the period and to glorify Allah for that [to] which He has guided you; and perhaps you will be grateful.﴿185

Translation

The month of Ramadhan [is that] in which was revealed the Qur'an, a guidance for the people and clear proofs of guidance and criterion. So whoever sights [the new moon of] the month, let him fast it; and whoever is ill or on a journey - then an equal number of other days. Allah intends for you ease and does not intend for you hardship and [wants] for you to complete the period and to glorify Allah for that [to] which He has guided you; and perhaps you will be grateful.

Simplified Tafsir

شهر رمضان الذي ابتدأ الله فيه إنزال القرآن في ليلة القدر؛ هداية للناس إلى الحق، فيه أوضح الدلائل على هدى الله، وعلى الفارق بين الحق والباطل. فمن حضر منكم الشهر وكان صحيحًا مقيمًا فليصم نهاره. ويُرخَّص للمريض والمسافر في الفطر، ثم يقضيان عدد تلك الأيام. يريد الله تعالى بكم اليسر والسهولة في شرائعه، ولا يريد بكم العسر والمشقة، ولتكملوا عدة الصيام شهرًا، ولتختموا الصيام بتكبير الله في عيد الفطر، ولتعظموه على هدايته لكم، ولكي تشكروا له على ما أنعم به عليكم من الهداية والتوفيق والتيسير.
