There is a hidden benefit of fasting regularly! Fasting in the winter is much less difficult, but no less rewardable. 

There are specific benefits mentioned in the ahadith about voluntary fasting that impact our status in the sight of Allah in so many different ways.

We gain more rewards for fasting through abstaining from certain actions during the fast such as backbiting, lying and being harsh. We cannot count the rewards voluntary fasting brings! Lets encourage one another.
