Salam,

I wonder if any of you have the same problem; I have a real struggle with fasting. I don't know if it's my will power, the strength of my iman or perhaps I need to work on my taqwa. Any ideas?

Usually whenever I try a nafl fast I almost always fail; I give in or look for an excuse to break it. I'm looking for some suggestions as to how to overcome this, and any tips/hints would be greatly appreciated.

Sheikh, it seems a problem of willpower. Make it stronger. Develop it. Set goals and work towards them. You just say to yourself, i won't eat no matter what happens.. Then see the wonders.
