Peace be upon you. Indeed, there is no doubt that prayer and fasting are fundamental obligations in Islam. Prayer is considered the foremost of the ten branches of religion, and the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) described it as the pillar of religion, stating that if it is accepted, then all other deeds are accepted, and if it is rejected, then all other deeds are rejected, as mentioned in the hadith. Additionally, fasting during the blessed month of Ramadan is one of the most important obligations emphasized in the Holy Quran and affirmed by the narrations of the Prophet and the Ahlul Bayt (peace be upon them). As it is stated in the Quran: 'Fasting has been prescribed for you as it was prescribed for those before you, that you may attain piety.' May you be successful in all that is good.
