Ramadan

Muslims can do the same things that they been doing rather it's work, cooking, shopping for the family, going to school those things never change. Muslims live a regular life its just during Ramadan they're focus even more in one place and that's Alla. Just like Christian's, and Catholics there are days you focus more on God. Example: Ash Wednesday Catholics Ash Wednesday marks the onset of the Lent, the 40-day period of fasting and abstinence.

The last day of Ramadan in 2008 is September 29th!

The most populated people in America is Christian, the Muslims population is lower than the Christian people. That cause the Muslims do not have power. which leads their ungoverned leader not participating in America partly in the inner constitutions, law, and other regulations. On other hand, America Christians, and Muslims have a deeper hideous that could simply form neglect and enemy. Every person belongs to his nations, nationality.

During the last day of Ramadan, every Muslim fasts. The next 3 days are holidays. It is Eid-il-Fitr. You basically have a break in fasting and you go and have fun!

It was invented to show that all should be equal. With the religion not eating it would show sacrifices!

Outdated, misleading information about employee holidays at Tyson has surfaced on the Internet. Tyson Foods strives to be a faith-friendly company. However, contrary to recently circulated reports, Tyson does not offer its workers a paid Muslim holiday at any location. In addition, Labor Day continues to be a paid holiday for all Team Members at the company's U.S. plants.

The incorrect information being spread on the Internet stems from a 2008 union-related matter at the company's Shelbyville, Tennessee, plant. The matter was resolved in August 2008. To see the news release Tyson issued at that time, please go to the following email address: tinyurl.com/4djshvs

Ramadan is an Islamic holiday, Muslims celebrate it. If Christians want to celebrate it and observe what they do that's fine I guess. I know a soccer coach that his wife and him along with his children spent 1 full day during Ramadan observing what the family did. He was pretty fascinated as he told me. So I'm guessing it's a yes.

The Islamic Council of Victoria announces: 1st day of Ramadan in Australia will be commencing on Thursday the 12 - 08 - 2010

Of course they fast as all Muslims of the world and based on the same rules of fasting according to the Quran and Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) teachings.

NO it is haram which means forbidden.

Note 2:Ramadan starting date is according to Makkah.

Officially, the working hours are diminished to allow more time for prayers. People usually sleep very late and spend considerable time in the mosques.

Once, beginning in the 16th Century, it was the habit of the Egyptian government to fire a canon which could be heard throughout Cairo to announce end of the daily fast. This loud shot was fired from the Citadel over the "el-Moqattam" mountains. Modern technology has replaced this habit so that now announcements are made on radio and TV.

"Iftar" is considered the main meal of the day during Ramadan and is often very rich. Any type of food might be served, but traditionally the desert almost always includes "konafa" or "qatayef".

While there are many restaurants, many may not serve alcoholic beverages during Ramadan. The holy month of Ramdan in Egypt is different than elsewhere.

Yes, Muslims can eat cheesecake after they break their fast. As long as the cheesecake does not contain any pork and/or alcohol.

Muslims will reach heaven if they follow the five pillars of Islam and do everything that Allah and Prophet Mohammad p.b.u.h. told us to do. Another is reading and memorizing the Quran. If you do all that then you will be guaranteed Janah (heaven).

Zakat is the Fourth Pillar of Islam. It is also a duty of a Muslim sister or brother.

When you donate your Zakat, it will hopefully be distributed to the less fortunate or the poor. It includes: young childern, adults, elderly people, disabled, etc.

May Allah (SWT) give blessings to those who give Zakat and help those in need. Ameen.

Prepare for Ramadan by repenting from sins, praying extra prayers, fasting, etc.

Writing dialogue is not as hard as you're letting it seem. You have dialogue all the time -- it's called talking. If you honestly cannot think of what your characters are going to say to one another, you need to go take a break and go somewhere out in public. Sit somewhere in the middle of a crowd for one to two hours and just listen to people talking. Then, go home and write down some of the things you heard people saying. That's dialogue.

What do you know about Ramadan? Perhaps you need to do some research and find out some facts so your characters can have realistic conversations.

When you need to have your characters talk, just pretend it's you and a friend (or several friends), and have them say something you'd probably say in the same situation. Then imagine what your friends would say in reply, and go back and forth that way. As you become a better writer, your characters themselves will "tell" you what they want to say, because they become like real people to you.

You can learn about Islam and Qur'an at a mosque or Islamic Schools. There are many schools at teach that stuff.

Eid Alfitr is the eid celebrated by Muslims directly after the complement of their fasting in the month of Ramadan as a sign for their happiness & thankfulness to Allah for the gift of accomplishing the duty of fasting. It lasts for three consecutive days, begins with the first day after the end of Ramadan.
