I am not fasting

funguy · October 18, 2005, 5:21pm

I know that some people who should be fasting decide not to fast for some reason or the other. Although I never ask anybody if they are fasting, some people just tell me anyway.

Some of the weird excuses of not fasting that I have come across are;

I have recently started a new job!
(and ??? )
I get so sleepy during the day and can’t study or work!
(that’s because you watch TV or stay on internet til 2 AM)

*We have a team meeting today at work
(and how would this be a valid excuse?)

Re: I am not fasting

I don't fast because I DON'T WANT to fast. I wouldn't fast if someone paid me to fast. I am no more (or no less) a muslim in Ram-Deen than any other month of the Islamic calendar.

Yep, that’s quite common amongst some cricketers.

Re: I am not fasting

Ye exactly! I don’t fast because I cannot deal with hunger

I fi fast i will lose my temper and end up being mad with others around me. Since huqooqul ibad are more important then huqooqullah I do not fast.

people just fast so when asked if they are fasting they can say yes.

Re: I am not fasting

Some people don't even Pray so I'm not surprised if they're not going to Fast, both are pillars of Islam and Prayer is even more important than Fasting.

Re: I am not fasting

Babay,

I don't pray. I don't fast. I don't want to know that others pray or fast. Nor should others worry about whether I pray or fast.
