Like all forms of worship, fasting is also a very private affair in Turkey.

There is a pronounced ambiance of deity and festivity in the atmosphere, but life and work still follow the routine hours, even for devout muslims.

It is different from other muslim countries I have lived in, where people spend the day-hours they are supposed to be fasting in sleep, hence avoid the due self-sacrifice simply by switching the hours of the day...fasting and sleeping in the day time and eating/drinking/half-working at nights.

do you know what mean Ramadan?
Ramadan means to share emotions that the poor people feel and live because they can't earn enough money to buy food and to spend easily. At the same time, Ramadan means to support poor people with money because the religion of Islam orders us to give to poor people some money or gifts to help them

That is what you think, my friend...

Ramazan is a specific month during which Moslems have been ordered to practice self dicipline and refrain from certain worldly pleasures.

Helping the poor and needy is a general rule to be observed through a Moslem's lifetime. Moslems are not expected to fast for 12 months of the year, but helping the needy is a 12 month affair.

Stop using a patronizing tone in discussion of religious issues, or you will get no further replies...you may not be the expert you think you are..Vanity is not appreciated in our religion.

But isn't that surely something that EVERYONE observes? We all give huge amounts of money to the poor and needy. I am not taking anything away from Ramadan, but also please remember that muslims are not the only ones who do this

With regard to fasting, not eating during the day and then eating masses of food as soon as its nighttime, is hardly empathising with the poor. Surely it would be better to eat a frugal diet during Ramadan instead. It would be practising more self-restraint...
