Fellow muslims here, Uhm.. i have a lot of interest in your religion though I'm a christian and I would like to know of what you do, what are your practices during these holy days. I have a lot of Muslim friends and I just cant relate to them with regard to some their topics when its about their religion. Thanks!

Hi, thanks for your interest. You have strted this discussion in wrong topic "mae etra money", You could have started it in life or people. However I am answering your question. The ramadan is a holy month for muslim to get purified both to their sole and body. To purify the body, they have to participate "rojah", completely refrain from taking food or drink) after the sunrise till the sunset. Message for this practise is that you control your appetite and realise the pain of the poors who canot get proper food. The second part is refrain yourslf from any illigal activities and give some time to partiipate extra prayer to god.

this is the wrong place to start this discussion.anyway ramdan is one of the arabic months and muslims are considering this month as which has very much specialities.we will get more benifits for doing good worships in this month .so muslims are fasting in this month and the ultimate aim is to purify our mind and body from all those evil thoughts and fill with worships and good thoughts.
