Bismillah, finally committing to my fasts this Ramadan

Hey everyone, it's been so many Ramadans since I actually fasted properly, and honestly, I really regret it. Every year I say I'll start, but then I don't follow through. I deeply feel the weight of missing those fasts. What advice do you have for someone wanting to sincerely repent and start fresh today? I sometimes feel selfish or like I'll just fall back into old habits, but this time my intention feels different, insha'Allah. Any guidance on how to properly begin and stay consistent?

The fact that you're feeling this regret is a sign of iman. Hold onto that. Try to perform the extra prayers at night, they really help strengthen resolve.

Start with suhoor. Having that pre-dawn meal makes the fast so much easier to complete.

Your sincerity is everything. Make lots of dua and try to connect with a friend to keep you accountable. You've got this!

Bro, that takes courage to admit. Just take it one day at a time and don't be too hard on yourself if you slip. Allah is the Most Merciful.

I feel you, man. Been there. Just start with today and don't overthink the rest of the month.

Masha'Allah for your intention. Remember, repentance wipes the slate clean. Don't look back.
