[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just read your "full fasting" as no food -- of course they don't go a full month with no water! And the Muslims I know do eat food as well before sunrise and after sunset.[/quote]

From sunrise to sunset, no food or liquids.  I always thought the no liquids would be the hardest.[/quote]

I'm pretty impressed with some of the young muslims I know.  Of course, you still want to participate in life with your friends, but no liquids in the summer, even with sports practice... Wow.

Plus, getting up before dawn for breakfast makes for a very long day.

(my own yom kippur experience suggests to me that I would find the liquid part the hardest, too.)

Yes, I suppose there are benefits to having it in the summer - no school so more relaxing, but the days are SO long.  My husband has to go to Kuwait for work and the guy he needs to meet with said don't come during Ramadan.  Things just shut down and it is just not a good time to do business.[/quote]
