    Ramadan is a month of fasting from sunup till sundown, where one abstains from food, bad deeds and bad thoughts. It is supposed to remind us of the hardships of others and therefore remind us of humility. Its also there to teach us patience, a lesson that is always good. Though quite a bit on this forum might find it strange, different or even downright hostile, I still wish everyone of you a Happy Ramadan and I hope that the lessons are not lost on anyone.

    Happy Ramadhan Mustafa. We have a fast of around 13 hours here in Pakistan and I don't think it is much of a problem for the majority. ;P

      How many kilos you lose generally in one month of Ramdan fasting?

      Usually, you gain. Feasting at night is not good for you. But if you eat properly you'll lose 1-3 in the month.

              Well, they would fast with the timing of the nearest location that did have a tangible dawn and dusk. IIRC, when we were in Edmonton, Muslims in Yellowknife and Whitehorse would fast according to our local times. I could find out more if you're really that interested.

              That might mean a 20hr+ fast without drinking! :omg: While I can admire the other aspects of ramadan, dehydrating for so long sound's downright unhealthy (in the "self-destructive" sense, not the "that is totally unhealthy! What if I'm allergic to germs?" unhealthy thing).

                        That shows that he's basically a boy when it comes to partying. It takes an experienced connoisseur to "manage" a multi-day feast, but it's certainly possible.

                                        Fast, I think, not feast! I doubt even DD could manage a 20 hour feast...

                                        I reckon he could, especially if he made sure he was taking in enough fluids during the feasting.

                                          Ramadan is a month of fasting from sunup till sundown, where one abstains from food, bad deeds and bad thoughts. It is supposed to remind us of the hardships of others and therefore remind us of humility. Its also there to teach us patience, a lesson that is always good. Though quite a bit on this forum might find it strange, different or even downright hostile, I still wish everyone of you a Happy Ramadan and I hope that the lessons are not lost on anyone.

                                          So how on Earth can you use the word in the same sentence as "happy"?!?
