We will never do something if what we do is nothing useful for us. The main reason we do something if it has something useful for our life. Fasting of Prophet David as we know is an activity that has heavy risk. Mainly it will effect physically. This is the logical theory.
Al Baqarah, 187 states : "... and eat and drink until the white thread of light to you from the black thread of the dawn. Then complete your fast till (comes) night."
This is the rule of Ramadhan fast and also sunnah fast in Islam. And one of the sunnah fast is Fasting of Prophet David. The problem will happen if we don't enough eat and drink before breaking time of our fasting. So, when we start our daily activities in the morning till the time to break the fast, our body will be so weak, has no enough power. Off course, this will cause job effectiveness go down. This physical impact will also influence the thinking system which causes a change in attitude spontaneously. There will be some characters change. Consciously or not, this will occur because of circumstances that make it up.
This Fasting of Prophet David will prove, is it right that when we observe this fast will build a good character? What Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) stated is written in Bukhari :: Book 3 :: Volume 31 :: Hadith 200 :
"Then fast like the fasting of David who used to fast on alternate days and would never flee from the battle field, on meeting the enemy."
