The answer
Typically the day in the church starts at sunset. To make it easier for believers, the church changed the time to midnight. So once fasting starts we should not bargain for more time. We should have our mind set on the blessings of the fast rather than the kind of food we will eat a few minutes after midnight. Medically, it is not healthy to eat that late at night before going to bed.Answered by His Eminence Metropolitan Youssef (opens in a new tab)
