Brothers let us not focus on why people are not fasting or not. It just detracts from the thread. My Turkish boss who I call "uncle", as he is very close to me doesn't fast and says I'm crazy and it is so hot and I will collapse etc etc. I just laugh and so does he. Welcome to the world of secular Turks.....That doesn't effect our brotherhood with them. Each to their own.
Right, I still have 3 and half hours to go. I am going to murder that fish pie I have cooking for me.
Well said.
Fasting is deeply personal experience. When a person digs deep down in his soul and tries to connect it to God.
Not sure why so many of us make it into a public spectacle.
I am OK with people eating drinking while I fast.
Hotels and restaurants must remain open as my effort to meditate and be close to God is not challeneged by the actions of others.
Sadly
For so many Pakistanis, it is all outwards appearance.
Almost like we seek rewards from fellow men, Dekho mera roza hai. dekho dekho. decko
instead we should seek connection with God.
