I Joined a BILLION Muslims in FASTING For a Day

- More than 1 billion Muslims fast during Ramadan every year. As a non-Muslim traveler, I have always been curious about what it must be like to abstain from eating food and drinking water from sunrise to sunset for 30 days.
I've never fasted before in my life so I figured being in quarantine would be the best time to try it out! I also wanted to take to opportunity to learn more about the Islamic religion & culture and make this video in hopes of sharing some positive information about Ramadan to my mostly non-Muslim audience. After fasting just for one day during Ramadan 2020, I have nothing but respect for the Muslims who have fasted for 30 days every single year since they were young.
I STRUGGLED during this fast! It was difficult to focus on work and being around the food in our house was definitely a test of my self control. The most noticeable physical reaction I had was my caffeine withdrawal that caused me to have a terrible headache all day.
I was so happy to be breaking my fast with my roommate Ammar who is from Egypt and has been fasting throughout Ramadan. We sat together to chat about his experiences during Ramadan which was amazing to get the perspective of a Muslim who has been fasting since he was 11 years old.
Once Ammar returned home with our dates and dinner, we said a prayer and reflected on my Ramadan experience. From just this short experience, I’ve learned that Ramadan is about so much more than fasting
It’s about becoming aware of your negative habits and practicing self control. It’s a time dedicated towards prayer, reflection and meditation. It teaches you to be grateful for all the blessings in your life and to be more understanding towards people less fortunate than you.
It’s also about community. It’s taking the time away from your normal routine to disconnect and come together to share meals and appreciate each other’s presence in our lives.
I’m feeling very grateful for the opportunity to learn more about Islamic culture and to those of you who are currently fasting, Ramadan Mubarak!

I am a Catholic from Louisville, KY, but study all religions so I’m not ignorant or insensitive to my diverse employee base. You are right. I wish people knew more about the religion than what they see or hear on the news. I sometimes think the world would be a better place without social media and news channels.

Finally a non-Muslim who’s not afraid to talk about Islam and culture because they’ve actually done their research and interacted with Muslims. It was nice having Amar there. You explained Ramadan in the most accurate and beautiful way. Couldn’t have done it better. And yes, Ramadan is definitely about conditioning our will power and practicing self-control, as well as taking this time to build healthy habits and reflect on our lives. It teaches us to slow down, something this quarantine has helped as well.
Really hasn't worked for the last 50 years, has it? lol
Haneen Al thank you so much! I really appreciate the support✌🏼
I don't have to be Muslim to learn the beauty of Islam
I don't have to be Christian to learn the beauty of the Bible
I don't have to be Jewish to know they beauty in their own way.....
And so onn....also I believe that there's not a single one religion in the world that teaches us to do bad things,in the end we are all HUMANS..

Even If im a Christian orthodox, I love experimenting new things about different cultures, so this year I ll try to fast for a couple of days. Wish me luck.
Good luck you can definitely do it..
Good luck buddy
It will get easier and your body will adapt to it in time. Good luck!!❤️
Thank you all so much

Salam From Iraq
yes, fasting is about self control and fighting temptations. fasting physically (by not eating and drinking) is quite easy feat for most Muslims who are already familiar. but the most difficult is self restraining from mental and emotional temptations such as cursing, lying, slandering, cheating, bad thoughts etc. anyhow, good job and may God guide you to the ultimate truth in this life. salam from Malaysia.
Loved how much you researched and delivered it rightly in the introduction. Your effort much appreciated❤❤❤
I’m Jewish and we fast once a year on Yom Kippur for 25 hours from sundown to sundown the next day. It’s sometimes difficult-I usually get miserable in the late afternoon-but I can’t even imagine fasting for 30 days straight. I have so much respect for Muslims who do this, and especially ones who are working and able to keep up their normal lives without being able to eat.
Wow that's so interesting! I'll have to learn more about Yom Kippur next :)
Thank you Adam for showing respect. Being a muslim who is used to fast since it became obligatory i.e. 13-14 years age, I must tell you that we become used-to in a few years. First 6 to 8 years you feel it but once you become used to 15-18 years of fasting, you become so used to it that you dont feel problem in keeping it. Normally we do sehri and iftari (meals) so we dont feel that hunger, but its more the thirst which we feel. Also, more than hunger, its the habitual eating and munching cravings that creates some issues otherwise it becomes pretty easy with time.
You get use to it after 3-4 days.
I usually start preparing for it about 20-25 earlier than the ramzan start.
Eat less day by day and increase the time between 2 meals.
It helps.
We also fast on Yom Kippur which is 10 Muharram in Islam but we keep two fast on 9,10 or 10,11 Muharram but that's not obligatory
@Cincinnati Reds yeah that's true and you know that muslims are fasting from thousands of years but unfortunately science tell us know infact our God Allah pak tell us many things that's already happened and some will happen in future
To my friends currently fasting for Ramadan, where are you and how has it been going?😊
Egypt:). We just broke our fast a while ago and we're doing well. Its a little easier this year because we're home. It was so difficult going to school while fasting.
Its going great, the more you do it the easier it gets. Trying to gain more knowledge, read more books and staying away from Netflix, music and other useless activity but enjoying it in moderation still.
Mauritius! Things are going pretty well here. Oily cakes for iftaar with the family haha.
Thanks for the video, and I guess you should try fasting more Days even if you are not a Muslim, you are welcome to be one tho :).
from Algeria , ramadhan is always the best year of the month , not being able to go the mosques this year is one of the saddest events in my life .
Thank you Lexia for regard to our religion.
Sometimes you missed some basic informations but Totaly everything was soo amazing.
JAZAKULLAHU HAYRUN!
This is beautiful I love how your not only fasting but your also respecting Muslims and talking about why we fast in such a beautiful nice way and thank you so much for explaining this your a beautiful young woman and I’m really proud that you fasted for one day that’s really goof
Finally someone who is doing his reseach and not calling muslims terrorists .
TunBoy Islam is a peaceful religion and all the people should accept this reality and one more thing terrorism have no religion.

One month fasting is also one type of therapy....in this civilization fasting is very essential for human health......when u fasting then virus is going dead.....practising Islam is the final civilization of the human kind upto the end of the world...now days fasting is very important to kill the infected bacteria and virus in the body...this Ramzan month boost your body...
That's a very low bar for "research"

this is by far the best descriptions of Ramadan I have ever seen from a non-muslim. truly made me smile
The Ramadan fast is not just abstaining from food and liquids from dusk to sunset. It's also about obtaining a certain mindset where you avoid arguments, disputes, keeping your eyes and tongue in check, doing extra prayers and dhikr, etc etc etc.
@Jesus Is God Jesus is not God. He himself prayed to God so stop promoting this ancient pagan ideology that was incorporated into Christianity by Constantine and the church fathers of those times.
@Jesus Is God What insult sir? I said Jesus prayed to God. Therefore he's not God.
Yh exactly
You also cannot 'meditate', only offer more prayers as you say. You may choose to meditate as an individual choice out of bounds but as you saw with her, most likely you're going to feel uncomfortable. Scientifically, the best pose for the body in this state (that relaxes the muscles and state of mind) is the kneeling or slouching pose.
Well said is whole purpose self restraint discipline u self as a human having god conscience in u behaviour all through Ramadan
I AM CATHOLIC AND THIS IS BEAUTIFUL! THANKS FOR BEING HUMBLE AND RESPECTING ALL!

Not eating for so long in the morning and suddenly gorging on food in the evening doesn't lead to any problem?I mean gastric attacks or acidity?cause doctors advise against such eating habits...
@@debmalyachatterjee22 I see we've got an uneducated person here, let me explain.
First of all people don't do it only for religious reasons, fasting has been around for many centuries as it has many positive effects on your body and gives you an understanding to how poor people feel when they don't have anything to eat, you'll also appreciate food more.
Scientists have proven that fasting is associated with a lot of health benefits, including weight loss, as well as improved blood sugar control, heart health, brain function and cancer prevention.
Ghrelin is the so-called hunger hormone, it binds to growth hormone (GH) receptor, which strongly stimulates GH. So, eating, by itself does not makes you gain lean tissue (like muscle and bone), despite what all the makers of supplements claim. Rather, hunger may be a strong growth stimulus.
Nothing turns off Growth Hormone like eating and you need GH to grow functional tissue. Of course, food provides the nutrients needed to grow, so in fact, you need both feeding and fasting cycles to properly grow. Not all feeding, and not all fasting. Life lies in the balance of the two. The cycle of life is feast and fast. The prophet Muhammed (pbuh) recommended us 1500 years ago that we should fast on mondays and thursdays apart from ramadan as to have a healthy balance between eating and fasting. He also taught us not to overeat when breaking the fast as it's detrimental to your health. He advised us to divide our meal into 3 parts: 1/3 for food, 1/3 for water and 1/3 for air.
But in today’s world, many people would have you believe that fasting is bad for your health, and that you should eat all the time.
The biggest worry about fasting is dealing with hunger. People assume that the hunger will get worse and worse until you cannot help yourself and start an IV donut slurry in your garage.
Ghrelin, the hunger hormone, increases appetite and weight gain. It also antagonizes the effect of Leptin. Leptin is a hormone produced by fat cells which turns off appetite and makes us stop eating.
Ghrelin turns on appetite. So, if you want to lose weight on a long term basis, you need to tune down ghrelin. If you don’t eat (fast), don’t you get hungrier and hungrier, ghrelin goes up and up and you’ll just gain weight?
That's wrong. Eating all the time sounds like it will turn off hunger and ghrelin. But that’s far too simplistic. Surprisingly, the answer to turning down ghrelin (and hunger) is the opposite - fasting. funny how random people knew this 1500 years ago before science was even advanced.
There has been a study where patients undertook a 33 hour fast, and ghrelin was measured every 20 minutes.
There are several things to notice. First, ghrelin levels are lowest at approximately 8:00 - 9:00 in the morning. Circadian rhythm studies consistently find that hunger is lowest first thing in the morning, also generally the longest period of the day where you have not eaten. This reinforces the fact that hunger is not simply a function of ‘not having eaten in a while’. At 9:00, you have not eaten for about 14 hours, yet you are the least hungry. Eating, remember, does not necessarily make you less hungry. This makes your statement of "ignoring your natural instincts and starving yourself just for a religion" incorrect.
There are 3 distinct peaks corresponding to lunch, dinner and the next day’s breakfast. BUT IT DOES NOT CONTINUALLY INCREASE. After the initial wave of hunger, it recedes, even if you don’t eat. Ghrelin shows a spontaneous decrease after approximately 2 h without food consumption.
Over the entire day of fasting, ghrelin stays stable! In other words, eating nothing over 33 hours made you no more or less hungry than when you started! That's why the girl in this video didn't feel that that hungry at the end of the day and felt even better afterwards.
Whether you ate or did not eat, your hunger level stayed the same.
Eating more sometimes makes you more hungry, not less. In the same vein, eating less can actually make you less hungry. That’s terrific, because if you are less hungry, you will eat less, and are more likely to lose weight.
Over 3 days of fasting, ghrelin gradually DECREASED. This means that patients were far LESS hungry despite not having eaten for the past 3 days. Everybody expects to be ravenously hungry after fasting multiple days, but actually find that their hunger completely disappears. They always say ‘I can’t eat much anymore. I get full so fast. I think my stomach shrank’. That’s PERFECT, because if you are eating less but getting more full, you are going to be more likely to keep the weight off.
Of course, there's so much more to fasting but I'll leave at this note.
@@debmalyachatterjee22
Actually, it excuses for muslim who have gastrointestinal... so you can learn how suffered that the poor outsides who have gastrointestinal to live everyday
@@annymp it was never about making a statement on ignoring natural instincts for the sake of religion alone.
The benefits of fasting have always been well documented...I was just curious about this type of dry fasting.That Fasting is crucial to metabolic cleansing is a known fact...But whether the Iftar food items are the ideal ones to break such a long fast was what I was curious about.
Hope you educate me on this...
@@debmalyachatterjee22 iftar meals should be well balanced and contain items from each food group, such as vegetables, cereals, meat, dairy products and fruit. The fast should be broken with a balanced diet ensuring that the essential nutritional needs of your body are met. These include sodium and potassium which are lost due to sweating, especially during summer. High-sugar foods as sweets and chocolates should be avoided as they contain very little nutritional value and are high in calories. They contribute to weight gain and can lead to health issues. Our prophet (pbuh) always broke his fast with dates and water. Dates are nutrient powerhouses that are a good source of potassium. It helps you hydrate quickly and gives you instant energy to make you feel rejuvenated after the long-hours of fasting.

This video has made me so proud to be Muslim. I would never change the decision I made just over a year ago to accept Islam. This is my second Ramadan as a Mexican-American Muslim revert. I am surrounded by my family constantly eating delicious food around me but the temptation is not there. Your body gets used to it the more you do it and the intention for the fast (doing it for the sake of Allah) makes it easier as well. It is routine for me now to not have any food or water until a little past 7pm. I am always nervous at the start of Ramadan but always sad when it ends. Thank you for giving this a try!
Proud you pro keep it up these world is few days
I’m very proud of you!

*Imagine in Africa we walked 2km to reach our school TO AND FROM in that hot sun while fasting but we did it and days have passed. Our principal did us a favour to let all Muslim students to leave the school at 4:00pm instead of 5:00pm our normal school time. Alhamdulillah we did it!* 😍😊✌

Subhaan Allah. May Allah bless you. Ameen

Thanks so much Lexie for sharing your experience. It is one of your greatest video.
As a Muslim American who lives in a suburban area where I faced so much discrimination by white people...this really touched my heart. You went out of your to understand our religion and culture. I love seeing this side of humanity because I dont get to see this side too much in my life.
Hi
So sad that you had to face discrimination from your home country and America as well
Don't worry bro
@@9535310131 Did she tell you she faced discrimination in her country ?
@there are 37differentqurans get the spelling correct. Looks like you are half baked literate who can be swayed away by propaganda,
Dammn being muslim I hv never seen non muslim being so knowledgeable especially on UA-cam. I'm really a big fan of urs 🔥🔥🔥
Cuz she’s travelled the whole world lol.
@@abbad707 you don't know Christian prince then
@@17lobb hes not knowledgable
@@fyali1632hahah sure that's why he spanks muslims all the time..
@@17lobb استعمار for example in Academia Arabic in newspaper tv,etc means in English colonization. The root word iş also used in Quran.HE iş the kind of person to take this and misunderstand that we are put on earth to colonizate it whenep the context of the word 1000 years ago didnt mean to colonize but to build.it like taking the English word cool which has 2 meaning however 100 years ago cool only referred to the weather
He runs his mouth out of ignorance hope to catch an audience like yourself and then it looks bad because many Muslim are not iş knowledgable enough on Quran nowadays they only k ow how to recite and dont understand it even for Arabic speakers.
Mashallah sister...May Allah guide us all.very nice and informative video.

You did great! Stay open minded and grow your tolerance is the message you sent out. 🙌
Wow the UA-cam stats actually make sense right now
James Wang haha thank you!
Yes
I feel like I could watch her speaking the whole day. Such a soothing voice and great personality.
Thank you! That means a lot to me because I've had a lot of people commenting to let me know that I speak too slowly so it's something I've been working on :)
Tharki
Thank you Lexie for being kind enough to cover this topic x
That's actually a very solid intro and explanation of the key elements of Ramadan. Super impressed.
Videos like this makes me fall in love with my religion all over again
Aw I love that!
I cannot usually wait for meals but when you fast, you just get tolerance. It's God-sent.
u r absolutely right.. dear
Food taste 10x/5x more delicious
@@bluealmyra8320 but you get full after two bites😆
Anytime i see someone who isnt Muslim that spreads positivity in the culture of Islam, my heart feels so warm. The media paints such a vastly different image than what Islam truly is like. Thank you for making this video. It means the world. We just want to share life and love with the rest of the world.
May Allah accepts your good deeds. Ramadan Mubarak...
I live in Ireland,my friend is Muslim and fasts,usually when we have school my other friends and I don’t eat at school w/ her.sun rise is at 5am and sun set is at 9:30pm here atm I really don’t know how everyone does it
We able to do it because we have faith in The Almighty 😊
We miss it too when it’s finish .. there’s so much beauty to it ... l mean we feel hunger but at the same time we love those feelings ..not even once in my entire life have I ever not love doing it even they were so long n hot day it gets you ready for coming year .. 🥰🥰
Sister we able to do it because we have faith in almighty God bless you sister.
Try to fast 1 day
Thomas Samuel they can eat food just specific food, no fat food or just vegetarian food. But if I can drink it gets much easier. Cause the hunger level drops down when u are not getting food, I know is sounds weird, but it is to do with your brain. We are wired in the way that we have to eat at specific times during the day. For example somewhere from 11 to 12 we eat, and right before that we get hungry as well. While doing the fast ur brain learns that it will not get food until sunset and it revires your hunger cycle(u do get hungry here and there though) just not at those specific times anymore and not the same level as non fasting days. I think I get more hungry when I’m not fasting
Ramadan Mubarak to all of those who fasting in this crazy pandemic , may Allah bless you all 🖤
U alone
Assalamualaikum ....and thank you... ramadan mubarak ❤️❤️❤️

Dz Power 😍 saha ramadankoum!

Not really it's about getting closer to God. The things you mention is secondary. You should first talk about the primary and that's to obtain taqwa.
Such an amazing time of the year! Ramadan Kareem 😊
Happy Ramadan Kareem &Eid Mubarak in advance.....😊🇧🇩
Great to see you do this. Talking about and respecting other religions is great to see!
I am a Muslim and cried when I saw her at sunset waiting for breakfast. This is a great experience for non-Muslims to get to know Islam and Muslims well.
we wait whole year for ramadan, its so difficult to explain the joy and blessing of ramadan in words, its all about building relationship with Allah💓😭❤️
👏🌸💙!!
Don't fool yourself, the highest relation that you can have with you r allah is of Master and Slave. You are nothing more than a slave to Allah. That's the Islamic teaching.
Ammar food fasting!!really!!! May Allah guide you. Ramadan Mubarak Lexie. Mashallah
