        I wish you a truly spiritual and uplifting experience of fasting in Ramadan. I hope you?ve experienced how that first drink after fasting rejuvenates your body like rain to a parched land. hail
        And then ahh there is nothing like a nice after dinner tea in Ramadan, the most relaxing drink of the year. How we appreciate little pleasures, which go unnoticed otherwise. )
        peace

          Happy Ramadan to all! After the first day of fasting I have some friendly advice to offer U.S. fasters. After a long day of fasting one may want to re-consider going to Golden Corral (a popular all-you-can-eat buffet), as my wife and I broke our fast there today.

          I rampaged and ate everything in sight. I think I may have eaten a small child that got in my way on to the dessert section. The fine folks at Golden Corral definitely lost money on me today, and a mother, her precious child.

          So yeah, just some advice for y'all Fasting + all you can eat buffet = stomach ache/1 hour of cardio at gym to compesate/missing the point of Ramadan entirely. laugh

                  As-Salmu `Alaykum

                  Please visit this site to download your pocket size guide to Ramadan. Very good prayers inside.

                  http//www.endpovertyfast.com/Static/download/pocket_guide.pdf

                  P.S. Rev.John you were looking for some prayers not long ago, maybe you will find some of interest from the pocket guide.

                  God bless

                  Hope

                            Well, I failed as far as the drinking was concerned, lasted until 2pm and had to have some water. Did not eat until sunset.

                              At least you tried. I drink at least 5 liters at night - try beating that! ;D It really helps - you wont feel thirsty the next day. Also drink a lot for your pre-dawn meal and drink lots of water before dawn. Maybe you'll make it tomorrow, GW.

                                      Yes I agree, give praise for the good things people do and do not be quick to shame people for their failures. I think you did extremely well Rev, I just wonder how many people will do something so difficult outside their beliefs to show brotherhood of the one true system given to us by God.
