      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

            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.

                            Rev keep it up; the first time is never easy, especially in long summers days, but to be able to avoid food till sunset is an excellent achievement. bravo

                              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.

                              Peace

                                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.

                                          As-Salamu Alaikum my brothers! Happy Ramadan...I have missed the fast because for physical issues. I plan to fast next month, insha'Allah. Pray for me as you are in my prayers. The doctor found a spot on my lung on an X-Ray. I am not sure where this medical revelation will take me, but I am assured fo God's mercy and compassion. I worry less for me than for my wife and children. My pulminologist appointment is 9.8.2009. I am sure that I will be undergoing tests ans such...perhaps my plans for a fast next month is not realistic, but they are my plans none-the-less. May God's peace be upon you all.
