      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.

                        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.
