[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have family members that are not devout, they don’t pray or fast but they do go for Eid prayers, dress up and visit family. It’s a little awkward when they come for iftar but have not been fasting but we all just look the other way. [/quote] Trust us, it is awkward for us non-fasters to go to an Iftar, too, as we haven’t ’earned it’. I’ll add that some non-devout also dabble in fasting for cultural solidarity, health benefits, and/or spiritual reasons. [/quote] Why is it awkward? In the Arab world it’s perfectly normal for ppl who don’t fast to attend an Iftar. No one is going around checking if they are fasting or not. [/quote]
