The sun does not rise, the earth rotates about its axis. It takes 24 hours for the earth to rotate completely.
The appearance of the sun setting quickly is an optical illusion caused by the Earth's rotation. As the Earth spins, the sun appears to move across the sky, creating the effect of a fast-setting sun. In reality, the sun sets at a consistent rate.
super fast why is the sunset? :P
Ramadan
To show sympathy for those who do not have food
Sunset Daze - 2010 Fast Times at Sun City Grand was released on: USA: 10 July 2010
The Talmud says that any fast that doesn't see the sun set is not a fast. Yom Kippur deserves more strictness because it is from the Torah. Tish'a be'av is only derabbanan (Rabbinical), though, so sunset should be sufficient. Nothing else is said in the Talmud nor Rishonim (commentaries).Answer:(In response to the above) On the contrary; it means that all fasts end after sunset. The Code of Jewish Law says explicitly that sunset is too early to end a fast (Orach Chaim, 562:1). Religious Jews customarily end the fast of Tisha B'av about 25 minutes after sunset, or slightly later. No fast is customarily ended at sunset.
An important duty for followers of Islam during the month of Ramadan is fasting from dawn until sunset. This includes abstaining from food, drink, smoking, and intimate relations during daylight hours as an act of self-discipline, spiritual reflection, and submission to God.
