If you are living in a Muslim Country and want to try fasting, as a non-muslim, why not, after all it will help us to understand the dedication and devotion required. Which will automatically give a deeper insight and respect for our hosts.

Fasting has been proven to be healthy and it also cleanses you body and mind for atleast a month.


Just make sure

You don't eat or drink, abstain from sex, abstain from swearing , abstain from speaking ill of someone, abstain from purpose bleeding from dusk to dawn...

I won't be trying it. The thought of not being able to have a cup of tea or coffee and a few ciggies during the day would blow me away. I need my de-stress fixes!

As I work in an office full of nationals, out of respect for them, I will also fast during the hours I am at the office.

Plus, I think it will be good for me.

Fasting only cleanses if you eat NOTHING for at least a week. If you wait till sundown to eat huge meals, that does not cleanse the body.
