B M Farookh, president of Bearys Welfare Association and managing director of Fiza Group while addressing the gathering said, ‘Islam in its broadest sense means complete submission to God. Fasting is prescribed by Allah Subhanahu Wa ta’ala to show our faith and submission upon him. Fasting is also an occasion to experience the feelings of hunger. The Zakat prescribed by Islam, if practiced in the right perspective would be sufficient enough to eradicate the imparities among the people. This is the kind of social revolution which is heralded by the advent of Zakat. Fasting is a medium to know the hunger and sufferings of the poor and the poorest. With all this in our armory, if we are able to touch the hearts of the people in distress, we would not be able to achieve the goals intended by fasting,’ said Farookh.
