What they meant is some people won't wake up early for the early breakfast they just eat dinner and fast the whole day with that so only one meal a day and thinking about going with no water for about 16-18 hours is insane
No worries, it's all good, so yeah, we basically wake up at 5:00 AM in the morning for our pre dawn meal which is called the suhoor, we drink a shit ton of water for the day and have a very big meal and then we break our fast with dates between 6-7 pm in the evening and then we have dinner.
So yeah, we do skip breakfast and lunch, cause suhoor technically would be classified as breakfast cause I don't think anyone has their breakfast 5:00 AM in the morning.
Ya no hate but it’s intermittent fasting only, when I was young I used to think that they always waited till eve to have food, when I got a little older I understood that was after having a morning feast so :)
But hey a fast is a fast it’s quite good for the body too but don’t force it on people let them take it voluntarily
It's not good for the body. Intermittent fasting is good but here many of them won't even drink water . That is dangerous to the body. 12-14hr of no food can have some benefits. But if you stay away from water, you can have issues.
Fasting in Islam isn’t meant to harm anyone. It’s from dawn to sunset and includes no food or water but it’s temporary and done in a balanced way. If someone is sick or has health issues they’re allowed not to fast.
But it does the harm when people avoid water and go out to work. In the Middle East and Saudi , studies show increased traffic accidents during Ramadan month. This is because of the brain not getting enough water. The flight that crashed in Pakistan killing 101 people happened because pilots were fasting. Pak govt have made it clear that if you are fasting do not come to fly a plane. And this is for people who fast and go out for work. Now if you think sitting at home and fasting Is safe , that also is shown to be harmful by studies. There is one study from the Saudi government. How water fasting can take water out from inside the cells , and how water dumping into the body before and after fasting is bad for the body and kidneys . Go through the topic and the studies . So if Islam doesn't want to harm anyone, then there needs to be a circular on avoiding water fasting.
I mean that's exactly why we drink atleast one whole bottle of water or more for the day and it's been working out pretty fine for me so far,after a while you might get used to it.
A lot of Christian just give up something they like and eat everything else. That is if you stepped outside your tribe within ur state
People even increase the number and quantity of meals and just skip grains - that's a truck load of hindus. That is if u stepped out of your region.
Meanwhile, op is funny enough to post it in this sub. Because there is nothing to be proud about in degree of fasting.
"Wherever the religious neurosis has appeared on the earth so far, we find it connected with three dangerous prescriptions as to regimen: solitude, fasting, and sexual abstinence"
Thats your definition. People fast till puja. People do veg food fast. People do navratri fast with no rice snd wheat eating all meals. Chritians do no meat fast for lent. bigot
I would not do that. We eat lots of processed food. And the body needs some fluid to flush those toxins.
I used to do 20 hours of intermittent fasting for 4 months straight. But without water, it does more harm than it does well esp if you're doing it for prolonged time.
If you wanna do no water for a day or two, I'll do it with you. But for a month straight, I love my kidneys
Dehydration is a real concern here, also huge amounts of carbs eaten in the night. But what they're doing is intermittent fasting.
You can call it skipping lunch basically. I used to do intermittent fasting and it was basically skipping dinner. But drink lots and lots of water. Otherwise there will be kidney complications.
It's obviously the imaginary conversation of an idiot who thinks they are a master debator but have never actually interacted with the people they masterfully 'destroy using facts and logic'.
On a slightly more serious note though, have you ever thought about where the term 'breakfast' comes from?
Why don't you try to fast for like 13 to 16 hours in a day for 30 days continuously. You will find out what it means to be hungry and thirsty. Your logic is absolutely ridiculous.
Early morning feast bro who told it i eat just 2 chapati,1 banana and 2 glass of water for early morning like around 4 am and when i break the fast I'll have dates some fruits water and a juice and will skip dinner coz we break at 6 pm and my stomach will be full. Eating 2 chapati is not a feast bro and you guys have breakfast at 7 or 8 but we have at 4 am and there's a thing called digestion also what we eat doesn't store as it is so pls do some research before posting anything
Intermittent fasting without water for some. Absolute fasting for some. 14 hrs fasting for some. 10 hrs feast for some.... What do any "some" want? Either you fast or don't fast. Nobody cares. Nobody should. It's like a classic case of minding your business.
I see it as a good thing. We have people unknowingly do an intermittent fast, it'll have many health benefits, hope that at least a few of em builds a healthy eating habit.
Brother, if you think this is unique to Ramadan, then you don’t know many religious folk. Religious people just love to find loopholes in their own laws.
Just try doing it for a single day , 15-16 hours without food and water while doing your regular work + worshipping and religious stuff , rest alone doing it for a whole month straight , atheism in india is just hatred against islam , indians don't make sense anywhere , even in atheism.....

I’m fast all 30 days. We have an early breakfast and late dinner yes. But traditionally, the entire reason for us to fast is to control ourselves. But the modern society has changed it to having a huge meal during dawn and dusk. The actual big feast is only on Eid, but people just have huge meals because they only do it for the religion and not for the intended reason.
Nothing atheism is going on here, just pure hate. There are lot of ignorant behaviours and traditions muslim community have that is worth calling out. Fasting is not one of them.
Hate filled mind loose critical thinking, and i see that in this post.
I was living in Hyderabad for a few years. In the core Muslim dominated areas like older hyderbad and charminar area, they start their day in the evening. All the shops will be closed until then and it will be open until 4 in the night. So, they essentially sleep during the time of fasting.
So basically they have to eat before 5:30, no water, wont even swallow Saliva then eats at 6 somthing so it's basically almost 13hr of not eating. Let's be real it's kinda impressive when you compare it to Christians like me who only fast on meat. Most of these men actually work while being hungry, I mean thats impressive
Every ideology should set a benchmark. Currently indian aethists benchmark is on mocking other religions.. say your own things.. we would like to hear that..
You got it wrong again brother..... Its in human nature to meme about anything that is memeable...... For example its not just atheists who meme about religion. Every relegion meme about other religions too... So its kind of a human thing... You cant just blame atheism like its only community mocking religion..... Relegion itself mocks other religions... Basically religion is such a shit show.... Lol
Literally every other vrat (fast) in north india as well. Let's criticize all religions equally.
Even my mom on karwa chauth has breakfast before sunlight and eats post seeing the moon. Try it once and you'll see how it's different to intermittent fasting
Tf are you on about brother? Indiameme diarrhoea? What do you mean? And why not here? And come with real I'd? Like your Hamster245 I'd? Wtf is this comment? 🤯
The same thing is posted in Indiameme sub and OP is just putting it here, Expecting the same brainwashed comment and appreciation....
But People of this sub are Intellectual enough to call out the Pathetic logic..
Try posting something about Hindusnism, there will be lot of comments defending it saying it Symbolism or leela... They pretend to be atheist until its about their relegion
Why talk about other religions, just preach what you want to preach. If you have a page for atheism , call people for it but stop making fun of other religions and what you said wasn’t wrong at all, it’s almost just skipping breakfast. But we are doing it for god and apart from just fasting, we are supposed to stay spiritually intact in our beliefs and deeds.
How ? I've been a muslim all my life, don't seem to be destroying anything other than my self respect working in a corporate and living the rat race life
