Es ist ein &#8222;aufrichtiges Bem\u00fchen, all das aus unserem Herzen zu entfernen, was die S\u00fcnde f\u00f6rdert und uns zum B\u00f6sen verleiht.&#8220;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Hier finden Sie einen \u00dcberblick \u00fcber h\u00e4ufige Fragen zu den Fastenregeln, die Sie im Jahr 2026 beachten sollten.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-fastenregeln-haufig-gestellte-fragen\">Fastenregeln: H\u00e4ufig gestellte Fragen<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1675558433476\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Was ist Fasten?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">In der katholischen Kirche ist das Fasten eine \u00dcbung zur Selbstdisziplinierung mit dem Schwerpunkt auf Umkehr. Fasten heisst, die Nahrungsaufnahme zu reduzieren und die Anzahl der Mahlzeiten zu begrenzen.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1675558441583\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Was sind die Fastenregeln?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Am <a href=\"https:\/\/hallow.com\/de\/blog\/aschermittwoch\/\">Aschermittwoch<\/a> und am <a href=\"https:\/\/hallow.com\/blog\/good-friday-the-passion-of-christ\/\">Karfreitag<\/a> erlauben die Fastenregeln den Katholiken, nur eine volle Mahlzeit und zwei kleinere Mahlzeiten zu sich zu nehmen, die zusammengenommen keine einzige normale Mahlzeit ergeben sollten. Au\u00dferdem sind Katholiken an diesen beiden Tagen &#8211; und an allen Freitagen der Fastenzeit &#8211; angehalten, kein Fleisch zu essen.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1675558449152\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Wie lauten die Fastenregeln zur Abstinenz?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">In diesem Zusammenhang bezieht sich die Enthaltsamkeit auf den &#8222;Verzicht&#8220; auf Fleisch an Freitagen w\u00e4hrend der Fastenzeit. W\u00e4hrend die Katholiken am Aschermittwoch und am Karfreitag mit nur einer gro\u00dfen Mahlzeit fasten, m\u00fcssen sie an den anderen Freitagen auf Fleisch verzichten, k\u00f6nnen aber drei volle Mahlzeiten zu sich nehmen.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1675558459616\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Ab welchem Alter sollte man in der Fastenzeit fasten?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Personen im Alter von 18 bis 59 Jahren, die bei guter Gesundheit sind, sind angehalten am Aschermittwoch und am Karfreitag zu fasten. Diejenigen, die 14 Jahre und \u00e4lter sind, m\u00fcssen freitags in der Fastenzeit auf Fleisch verzichten. Im kanonischen Recht wird erw\u00e4hnt, dass die Eltern kleinen Kindern, die nicht fasten, dennoch die Bedeutung und den Charakter der Umkehr vermitteln sollten.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1675558478338\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Wer ist vom Fasten in der Fastenzeit ausgenommen?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Kinder, k\u00f6rperlich und geistig kranke Erwachsene, schwangere Frauen und stillende M\u00fctter sind von dieser Regelung ausgenommen. Die USCCB betont, dass &#8222;der gesunde Menschenverstand \u00fcberwiegen sollte&#8220; und dass niemand seine Gesundheit durch Fasten gef\u00e4hrden sollte.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1675558495217\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Wann ist das Fasten vorbei?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Die Fastenzeit endet am Gr\u00fcndonnerstag, aber das Fasten (und die pers\u00f6nlichen Verpflichtungen) dauern gew\u00f6hnlich bis Ostern. Das p\u00e4pstliche Dokument <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ewtn.com\/catholicism\/library\/preparation-and-celebration-of-the-easter-feasts-2169\">Paschalis Solemnitatis<\/a> empfiehlt dies, damit wir &#8222;mit erhobenem und aufnahmebereitem Herzen bereit sind, die Freuden des Sonntags der Auferstehung zu feiern.&#8220;<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1675558511688\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Darf man am Karfreitag Fleisch essen?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Einerseits ist der Karfreitag Teil des <a href=\"https:\/\/hallow.com\/blog\/holy-week-schedule\/\">\u00f6sterlichen Triduums<\/a>, das das Ende der Fastenzeit markiert. Da der Karfreitag selbst ein Tag der Enthaltsamkeit ist, ist es am besten, auf Fleisch zu verzichten, wie an den Freitagen der Fastenzeit. <\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1675558535376\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Z\u00e4hlen Sonntage als Fastentage?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">F\u00fcr Katholiken ist es \u00fcblich, in der Fastenzeit zus\u00e4tzlich zu den Fasten- und Abstinenzregeln auf etwas zu verzichten. Manche halten ihr Opfer kontinuierlich, aber die Sonntage in der Fastenzeit sind keine &#8222;vorgeschriebenen Tage des Fastens und der Enthaltsamkeit&#8220;. Letztlich ist es eine pers\u00f6nliche Entscheidung.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1675558558032\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Sind Fischgerichte in Ordnung?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Da Fisch anstelle von Fleisch serviert wird, sind Fischgerichte der \u00f6rtlichen Kirche eine gute Option f\u00fcr die Freitage in der Fastenzeit. Da die Fastenzeit eine Zeit der Umkehr und Bu\u00dfe ist, ist ein bescheidenes Essen in deiner Gemeinde wahrscheinlich die bessere Wahl als ein \u00fcppiges Fischgericht mit Meeresfr\u00fcchten in einem leckeren Restaurant. <\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1675558576655\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Gilt &#8222;Enthaltsamkeit&#8220; auch f\u00fcr Sex? M\u00fcssen Katholiken in der Fastenzeit auf Sex verzichten?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Nein. Die Abstinenz bezieht sich auf das Essen. <br><br>Aus <a href=\"https:\/\/www.latimes.com\/archives\/la-xpm-1995-02-25-me-35840-story.html\">einigen Kirchenb\u00fcchern<\/a> aus dem Mittelalter geht hervor, dass die Geburten in den neun Monaten nach der Fastenzeit zur\u00fcckgingen und in den neun Monaten nach Ostern anstiegen, so dass es m\u00f6glicherweise einen historischen Pr\u00e4zedenzfall f\u00fcr diese Praxis gibt.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1675558599376\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Was kann man am Aschermittwoch trinken? Wie lauten die Fastenregeln f\u00fcr Fl\u00fcssigkeiten wie Kaffee?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">In der Fastenzeit gelten die \u00fcblichen Regeln f\u00fcr das Fasten vor dem Kommunionempfang (Verzicht auf Nahrung eine Stunde vor der Messe). Dar\u00fcber hinaus gibt es keine besonderen Vorschriften f\u00fcr Fl\u00fcssigkeiten, so dass Kaffee, Tee und Limonade in Ordnung sind. Ein Smoothie, der eine Mahlzeit darstellt, w\u00fcrde wahrscheinlich als Lebensmittel gelten.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1675558619663\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Wie lauten die Fastenregeln f\u00fcr Alkohol? <\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Die Kirche schr\u00e4nkt Alkohol nicht ausdr\u00fccklich ein. Am besten ist die pers\u00f6nlicher Vorbehalt einer Person. <\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-1 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/hallow.app.link\/lentfastingrules\">Beten und Fasten mit Hallow in der Fastenzeit<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-weitere-hilfreiche-informationen-zur-fastenzeit\"><strong>Weitere hilfreiche Informationen zur Fastenzeit<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/hallow.com\/de\/blog\/fastengebete\/\">Fastengebete<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/hallow.com\/de\/blog\/auf-was-zu-verzichten-in-der-fastenzeit\/\">Was man in der Fastenzeit aufgeben sollte<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/hallow.com\/blog\/where-to-get-ashes-on-ash-wednesday\/\">Wo man am Aschermittwoch Asche bekommt<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/hallow.com\/de\/blog\/wie-man-den-rosenkranz-betet\/\">Wie betet man den Rosenkranz<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/hallow.com\/blog\/holy-week-schedule\/\">Leitfaden f\u00fcr die Karwoche<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Neben dem Gebet und den Almosen ist das Fasten eine der drei S\u00e4ulen der Fastenzeit.
