      Yes it is. By the way, I started my fast about 2 hours ago. Wish me luck.

      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

                  This time difference is amazing

                  So is the distance yet all the fasting, from every corner of the world, joining a forum to exchange our experiences makes us so close. group

                          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.

                                      Thank you. I do not have to do it, there is no fast at Ramadan in Christianity, I am doing it, to show support for my Muslim brothers and sisters and hopefully bring us closer.
