The Baha'i Fast is an annual spiritual observance that lasts for nineteen days, from March 2 to March 20. It is a time for Baha'is to focus on prayer, reflection, and self-discipline. During the fast, adult Baha'is refrain from eating or drinking from sunrise to sunset. The fast is considered a period of spiritual renewal, focused on fostering closeness to God, detachment from material desires, and personal growth. It is also an opportunity to strengthen community bonds and increase empathy for those who face hunger or deprivation. The Fast is seen as an essential part of Baha'i practice, symbolizing the importance of spiritual nourishment over physical sustenance and promoting a deeper connection to the divine.
Today's prayer is the long prayer for the Baha'i fast.
