Hadith:
Zahdam Al-Jarmi RA.says that we were present in the assembly of abu Musa Ash'ari Radiyallahu 'Anhu. Fowl meat was served for food. A, person from among those present, moved back. Abu Musa Radiyalahu 'Anhu asked him the reason (for doing so). He replied 'I had seen the fowl eat something (dirty) so I swore an oath that I will not eat it'. Abu Musa Radiyallahu 'Anhu said: 'In that case, I had seen Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam eat the meat of a fowl' (come and partake of it without fear. If it was not permissible or disliked, how did Sayyidina Rasulullah Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam eat it).
[Shamaail Tirmidhi]
The fowl meat digests quickly, creates good humour (body fluids) in the body. It strengthens the brain and the main parts of the body and clears the voice.
Don't be strict on yourself.
Take the allowances when you need to.
Once the Sahaba and went on an expedition with the prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam during Ramdhan. The prophet sallallahu alayhi wasallam chose not to keep the fast. The journey was a tiring one and the heat was intense. He then saw a crowd of people, and a man was being shaded (by them). He Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam asked, "What is the matter?" They said, "He (the man) is fasting." The Prophet Sallallahu 'Alayhi Wasallam said, "It is not righteousness that you fast on a journey."
Hadhrat says that during Ramadhan once he was going for Umrah, and he kept the fast despite the choice of not keeping one due to the journey. He says he thought it wouldn't take so much of his energy because he was travelling by aeroplane. Once he reached however, Hadhrat says that he could not find a hotel that had a room. It was in the time when people would go to the haramain and book the hotels upon reaching there. Hadhrat says that he was so tired after a whole day of searching in the heat whilst fasting that it took him days to recover. From then on Hadhrat then understood the wisdom in this ruling and allowance.
If someone always acts on the high stage then they might become proud. Be wary of this and sometimes chose the leeway we have been given by shariah. For example if we never say Allah SWT's name without wudhu, we may start having pride within ourselves.
May Allah give us tawfiq
