today's the first day of Ramadan for most of who celebrate it. i wish that the blessed month breezes through on all the fasters especially since this year they are fasting from sunrise to sunset which is at around 8pm in the scorching heat of August!! heres hoping that God accepts your generous fastings and rewards you accordingly IP: Logged |

Hope all who fast manage to go through nicely with His Grace. Here its raining nicely for the past fortnight. So the prospective fasting ppl are very happy and are hoping to have a comparatively less straineous 1 month period. All the best in your efforts.IP: Logged |

YES!!!To all our members who're fasting during this Ramadan-- Wishing you super breezy success in your fasts and all the blessings and joy you seek thereafter!! It's not easy at all to fast from sunrise to sunset for a whole month, so all I can say is WOW!! How can God not be pleased after such a sacrifice? IP: Logged |

Happy Masocist-in-training month to all my brothers and sisters . I kid! I kid! Ramadan Kareem everyone. This month seriously takes its toll on happily married couple. I mean imagine... No serious canoodling for a WHOLE month! Allah seriously knows how to test us poor schmucks eh? Lol! My wife wrote an article for our University Newspaper on the subject of no nookie during Ramadan appropriately entitled "Confessions of a Ramadan Widow" . Its a hilarious read! IP: Logged |

haha Xodian you're right. but it makes sense doesn't it, i mean why fast from food if you're not restraining from the other materialistic/bodily needs. it wouldn't make sense. they are also forbidden to curse and/or lie or they will break their fast.im gonna let the masochist joke slide

Hi Xodian, Everything is permitted from Dusk to Dawn We just have to restrain from nooners... [Some ultra pious chaps do abstain during the last ten nights of Ramadan.]BTW, there is a system in place for those who cannot fast. Just buy a poor person 2 full meals for every fast missed out.
