Ramadan is the holy month of fasting for all Muslims. "Ramadan Mubarak" is a phrase used amoung Muslims to congratulate eachother on holidays, it literally means "Blessed Festival".
It is Ramadan at the moment and the Muslims are fasting (they have to refrain from food, drink and sexual activities from dawn until dusk). As soon as the sun goes down they full their bellies with food and drink, and most of them stay up all night eating and drinking to make up for lost time. Now, Muslim's arent supposed to drink alcohol, but who knows what happend behind closed doors??!!
During this month, it is granted by the government that all Muslims only have to work 6 hours a day, so they all arrive at 08h30 and go home at 14h30 - should I be fasting?
