      Stop spreading false information. That may be one of the wisdoms of fasting in Ramadan but the actual purpose is to attain taqwa as it is explicitly mentioned in the Quran,

    I’m a Muslim and honestly the fasting gets easier as you progress it’s just the first few days and the reason why you feel weak and even get headaches when you fast is because you’re body is releasing all the stored toxins and your immune system cells are regenerating but once you keep up your fast you feel better! So even if you’re not Muslim, fasting even outside of Ramadan from time to time has incredible effects on the body and I highly encourage you all to look at the scientific and medical research regarding fasting and its amazing benefits on the human body. This video was beautiful to see! There’s something precious about people experiencing each other’s culture and beliefs with honesty and respect.

    I used to be an Islamophobe in the past, but in college, Allah made me come across a guy who would completely change my views on Islam and show me how beautiful Islam actually is and nice the Muslims are. I converted to Islam a year ago and it was the best decision of my life. Today I am happily married to that guy and we are really enjoying our married life. His family have recently shifted here from Bangladesh too. I can't wait to spend my first Ramadan ever with him and his family. I will always be thankful to Allah for showing me the correct path. Alhamdulillah. Lots of love to my Muslim brothers and sisters ❤️🇺🇲🇧🇩❤️

I vividly remember my miserable feeling being hungry and got more desperate when my sister ate infront of me. Dnt not showoff or display your blessing infront of people who are at lower level than you. That was the lesson i learned.

      Hi friend, I used to be a Christian once upon a time. If you'll give me 2 minutes I can prove that Jesus (peace be upon him) was in fact a prophet of God
      God is immortal, uncreated, all powerful and all knowing and Jesus (peace be upon him) was none of those things
      Jesus (peace be upon him) was created by God and was born to Mary (peace be upon her) after God willed it therefore he was born and created (you can't have an uncreated created being)
      Jesus (peace be upon him) could be harmed and even killed and Jesus (peace be upon him) begged God to not let him die... someone unhurtable and unkillable doesn't ask to be saved
      An all powerful being doesn't need nor can be strengthened
      ‘An angel from heaven appeared to him and strengthened him - in the garden of Gethsemane’ (Luke 22:43)
      ‘Then the devil left him; and behold, angels came and began to minister to Him’ (Mark. 1:13)
      Jesus was not all knowing as God is
      But God is All Wise & does not need to learn: Jesus grew in wisdom, but God is all wise ‘Great is our Lord and abundant in strength; His understanding is infinite.’ (Psalms 147:5)
      ‘And Jesus increased in wisdom.’ (Luke 2:52)
      And of course Jesus (peace be upon him) never claimed divinity and is outright shown to be a servant of God
      The disciples prayed to God just as they were commanded by Jesus in Luke 11:2, and considered Jesus to be God’s servant.
      ‘they raised their voices together in prayer to God. ‘Sovereign Lord,’ they said, ‘you made the heaven and the earth and the sea, and everything in them.’ (Acts 4:24)
      ‘your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed.’ (Acts 4:27)
      ‘of Your holy servant Jesus.’ (Acts 4:30)
      The Bible says that Jesus was God’s servant
      ‘Behold, My servant, whom I have chosen, in whom My soul is well pleased.’ (Matt 12:18)
      And the holy Quran just further proves it
      ‘I am indeed a servant of God.’ (Quran 19:30)
      Since Jesus is God’s servant, Jesus can not be God but a prophet of God

      I started fast Ramadan when I was 7 years old, nobody forced me, I just wanted to, so I remember I completed 14 days fasting out of 30, then from age 8 till now I’m 36 years old I fast the whole month of Ramadan, the most beautiful and peaceful month of the year, break our routine by eating when and as much we want and forget there are humans in the world feel hungry all the time. Good for your son to be strongly spiritual when he get older

      If you're fasting or doing intermittent fasting, the regular food tastes so good, when you finally get to eat but remember to not eat too much.
      We are all generally eating too much, which is not the healthiest thing to do to our bodies. Don't believe me, watch the movie "The Martian" featuring Matt Damon and you'll see that even a little bit of food can give you the energy required to go through your normal day (of course that is only a movie)

    Well done, you’re a warrior. Really enjoyed watching your video taking on a perspective of a non-Muslim fasting. The more you do it the more you learn to respect your health and body. The aim is to try to eat healthy too. We usually break fast in our household with dates, water and then fruits- pray Maghreb and then have our dinner. I feel the praying/meditation is the most important part of the fast. I also like to squeeze in 5km runs just before iftaar. It is all possible 😊

People in middle-east can be really ignorant. Since I have seen people like that I know for a fact that they are not real muslims because they do not read Kuran and they see religion as tradition, they learn Islam from their elderly(who twisted Islam's ideologies at first place) thats why they do such ignorant acts and thus media portrays Islam as the religion of curelty which is totally not the case.

    Basically every muslim kid starts fasting pretty fast. Even if it is not obligated till a certain age, many muslims are excited to fast. My 10 year old sister kept fasts the whole month this time. Personally I always feel the most peaceful and relaxed during Ramadan. It’s basically a whole therapy month for our family.

Hoe many narratives where in the 9th century ? 12th century ? 14th century ? How year 1924 embraced most contradictive Hafs ibn Sulaymaan who was considered a weak reporter of hadith.Thousands of questions i can raise but it is u who has to analyze this n be objective.We do not claim perfection of the bible as humans wrote it yet our message is the same.Dont forget what lord jesus said ME AND THE FATHER R ONE.also when jewish asked him who is he .He said before Abraham was i am.May Lord Jesus clear ur blindness from the war lord who enslaved and sexed woman.Who robbed and hired a paid army to slaugther.Comparing sinless Lord Jesus with this demon is a madness.

    Big respect. It gets easier throughout the month, but everyone has their ups and downs. We always find ways to distract ourselves through work, reading the quran, studing the religion and praying. Rather than feeling angry that we have to do it, we feel grateful that we have the choice. Like you said some people dont know if at sunset theyll have a meal waiting for them. I think its a great experience for both muslims and non-muslims.

Me and a bunch of Astronomers met up with our man Qomar (spelled wrong) and a ton of Muslims from Bradford at our secret observatory and set up telescopes to track the moon. All going well but the tiny slither of a New Moon is hard to see in daylight, even harder when there are clouds. It got to about 9pm, a dark blue sky, a collection of small clouds shifted and Boom there it was a lovely slither of a new Moon. Qomar was straight on the phone to some official Muslim dude in London and we were the first to sight it. London dude got on to Saudi Arabia and that was end of Ramadan 2010.

To be grateful for everything that we have & for being able to break our fast after a long day. There are so many people around the world who are living in poverty, not knowing what their next meal will be. So Ramadan is definitely a time for reflection & gratitude! Alhamdulilah (all praise to God) 🙏🏽

      guess what? most muslims don't read the quran at all and those that do cannot comprehend the quran. they simply regurgitate what their imams tell them. you don't even get the same story from two different imams, let alone 2 different qurans and right now there are at least 37 different qurans that are completely different from each other. what is worse is that the quran is not preserved but has been changed drastically over the course of 1400 yrs. both yasir qadhi and shabir ali have said so. there are holes in the narrative and not even the top scholars can answer the questions as to why. it was said 1400 yrs ago that no man can memorize the quran, because the whole quran no longer existed then. a sheep ate over 200 verses of surah 33 and that alone means it is NOT preserved.
