    Fasting during the first ten days of Dhul-Hijjah, including the Day of Eid (Eid al-Adha), is considered highly recommended and virtuous in Islam. These ten days are considered among the most sacred and blessed days of the Islamic calendar. Fasting during this time is a way to earn rewards and seek forgiveness. The Day of Arafah, which falls on the 9th day of Dhul-Hijjah, is particularly significant. Fasting on this day is highly encouraged, and it is said to expiate the sins of the previous year and the year to come. It’s worth noting that for those who are performing Hajj, fasting on the Day of Arafah is not recommended as it is not part of the rituals of Hajj. Fasting on the Day of Eid (10th Dhul-Hijjah) is discouraged because it is a day of celebration and thanksgiving. Muslims typically break their fast on this day and offer special prayers. Keep in mind that while fasting during these days is recommended, it is not obligatory, and individuals may choose to fast or not based on their circumstances and ability.

    1. Changes in the Christian Bible:

    • The Christian Bible consists of the Old Testament (also known as the Hebrew Bible) and the New Testament. It has undergone various translations and editions over the centuries.
    • There have been different versions and translations of the Bible, but the core teachings and content have remained largely consistent. Major changes or revisions to the content are relatively rare.

    2. Christian Belief in Divine Revelation:

    • Christians believe that the Bible, both the Old and New Testaments, contains divinely inspired revelations from God to various prophets and apostles over a long period of time.
    • Unlike the Quran, which Muslims believe was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad over 23 years ago, the Christian Bible was written by multiple authors over many centuries.

    3. Christian Scholars and Theologians:

    • Christian scholars and theologians have played a significant role in interpreting and preserving the Bible’s teachings.
    • Various denominations and traditions within Christianity may have different perspectives on specific theological matters or interpretations of the Bible.

    4. Stability of Christian Beliefs:

    • While there have been variations in Christian interpretations and practices over time, the core beliefs in the divinity of Jesus Christ, the Trinity, and the salvation of humanity through Jesus’ sacrifice have remained central to Christianity.

    5. Role of Church Councils:

    • Church councils, such as the First Council of Nicaea in 325 AD, played a role in establishing key theological doctrines and confirming the canon of the New Testament.

    6. Comparison with Quranic Revelation:

    • The Quran is considered by Muslims to be the final and complete revelation, given to the Prophet Muhammad by God over a span of 23 years.
    • Unlike the Bible, which spans centuries and includes multiple authors, the Quran is believed to be a direct and unaltered revelation in its original Arabic text.

    In summary, the Christian Bible has undergone various translations and editions over time, but its core teachings have remained largely consistent. Christianity, unlike Islam, does not claim that the Bible was revealed in a specific chronological order over a set period. The Quran, in contrast, is believed by Muslims to be a direct and complete revelation given to the Prophet Muhammad over 23 years.
