Description

Ramadan is a sacred month of worship, reflection, and self-discipline. At the same time, fasting brings important physiological changes to the human body, especially for people living with medical conditions. Many individuals fast without proper guidance, often due to fear, guilt, or social pressure, which can lead to avoidable health complications.

Ramadan & Health 2026 is a doctor-led, evidence-based course designed to help you fast safely, confidently, and responsibly. This course bridges modern medical science with Islamic ethical principles, ensuring that faith and health work together — not against each other.

In this course, you will learn how fasting affects metabolism, hydration, blood sugar, blood pressure, sleep, and medication timing. You will clearly understand who can fast safely, who should fast with caution, and who should not fast at all, using a simple traffic-light medical risk model.

The course provides practical guidance for managing common conditions during Ramadan, including diabetes, heart disease, kidney disease, asthma, gastrointestinal problems, mental health conditions, pregnancy and breastfeeding, cancer, blood disorders, and occupational health risks. You will also learn exactly when breaking the fast becomes medically and religiously necessary, what does and does not break the fast medically, and how to remove guilt from health-based decisions.

This course is suitable for the general public, patients, caregivers, healthcare professionals, and community leaders. Ramadan is meant to bring peace — not medical emergencies. This course helps you complete Ramadan with faith, wisdom, and safety.

Who this course is for:

  • This course is for Muslims planning to fast during Ramadan, patients with medical conditions, caregivers, healthcare workers, and community leaders seeking safe, evidence-based guidance.
