Title: Muslims Prepare to Observe Holy Month of Ramadan Post by: a7mos on June 05, 2016, 12:53:36 PM Muslims around the world are preparing to observe the holy month of Ramadan, which is expected to begin late Sunday or Monday, depending on the first sighting of the new moon.
The faithful are expected to spend the month fasting during daylight hours, eschewing even water, and spending more time in prayer and study of the Quran. They are supposed to avoid bad habits and indulgences, such as smoking and sex. Cultural differences and even geography have led to differences in the ways Muslims observe the holy month. Fasting during daylight hours has proven difficult for people living near polar regions during the long days of the summer. Muslim clerics have in the past few years issued fatwas allowing Muslims in regions where the sun does not set in summer -- or, when Ramadan falls in winter, where the sun does not rise -- to follow the sunrise and sunset times of Mecca. http://www.voanews.com/content/muslims-prepare-to-observe-holy-month-of-ramadan/3362359.html Ramadan Mubarak to all Muslims here :D http://aden-univ.net/uploads/NEWS-2014/JULY/01/rm.png Title: Re: Muslims Prepare to Observe Holy Month of Ramadan Post by: Spendulus on June 06, 2016, 12:53:50 AM .... I can't see this. They simply need to follow the words of the Koran.

What could be simpler than this? Does a Fatwa over rule their old holy book? It's a direct reading of the text. Period. Either believe it and obey it or don't.

When they got home they tell the parents they had nowt :D :D.. They said how hard it was to fast..WHY starve yourself why not just give money to the poor.. You starve yourself so you know how the poor feel.. No need to do this just look at the poor and give them money.. But i suppose if your rich then maybe it would make you understand more what the poor feel if you never been poor yourself.. Also if your already poor and are a Muslim what's the point in doing this action..There already starving for a life..

I hadn't thought about that, but it seems fair that they can eat at some point. Rather than being arbitrary they could standardize it to 16h of fasting, with 8h rest, or just say everyone follows Mecca's time. I guess when the rules were made, they hadn't really considered the future generations living near the poles!

Well, since they are praying and studying the Quran would be good to stop their terrorist attacks.

Stereotyping hurts the economy and is just what the establishment needs to sustain the military industrial complex. Non-interventionism and tolerance spares us from bigotry and unnecessary warfare. The Middle East is none of our business, and the majority of terrorists are not Muslims. |
