Ramadan

It is the Ramadan. A Muslim religious observance that takes place during the ninth month of the Islamic calender, it is the month in which the Quran wasrevealed to the Prop`het Muhammed.Today it is an Islamic month of fasting where participating Muslims do not eat or drink anything from true dawn until sunset. Around 4:30am until 6:30pm. It is meant to teach the person patience, sacrifice and humility.

In reality, it seems to make people crazy, especially towards the end of the evening and it just means that at night they eat heeeeaps! Like HEAPS! They gorge. Fasting? Sure it is...
