    I am very Christian, but I am familiar with Ramadan, but not knowledgeable. As a sociologist (& chef) this is such a lovely video that needs to go viral. The media I am afraid only shows Muslim as a horrible terroristic religion. This is enlightening and really helps to show that the vast majority of Muslims are a beautiful people. I hope I say this correctly as it is meant with great respect, so please take it as a compliment.

    @@VeryCherryCherry uh that’s a definite no. Islam is a weak copy of the Torah in order for the false prophet Mohammed to try to persuade Jewish tribes to join his cult. When the Jews questioned him on religion it was clear he knew nothing. Later, when mo had more ppl join him he went back to kill the Jews. No. 1 reason it’s nothing like Judaism or Christianity is that Islam doesn’t even follow the 10 commandments. Yahweh is God, not a false moon god.

It's sad that the social media focuses on so much hate, and not just with religion, but on many topics. Seeing the family focused food side just makes this easier for people to see that you are a peaceful people. My mom went on a Christian tour of the Holy Land, and her bus driver was Muslim. At the end, he invited the entire group into his home to share a meal and worship together. Most beautiful story.

    RAMADAN KAREEM EVERYONE!!! I come from Lebanon. My family and I always break our fast with a glass of water and a date. Then we have soup, followed by the main dish. It is very important to focus on hydration and getting a lot of vegetables in you since fasting can cause constipation to some people. Also, we reduce our sugar, salt, and any processed or fried food intake because they will cause us to become thirsty during the day. I encourage non-muslims to try fasting for Ramadan for a day or two or a week even (preferably with a Muslim friend and break their fast at their friend's house) just to experience how wonderful and giving Ramadan can be.

    This makes me so happy as a Malaysian Muslim. I love the fact that the girl in the black hijab really summed Ramadhan up well. Ramadhan teaches you to be very grateful for having food, drink and your possessions. Starving all day long is not easy but then you really really understand what it’s like for those who don’t have food in poor countries or war torn countries. So many are suffering and dying if hunger so when we who are privileged enough to have food everyday, when we fast, we become so humbled and grateful. It even teaches you humility and self control. You not only have to abstain from eating or drinking during the day but you can’t do anything sexual either with your spouse while fasting. You tamp down such urges during the fasting hours and that really teaches you something for sure. It is very difficult sometimes for those who have high libidos or are teens going through the hormonal growth. When we say Ramadhan is a cleansing of the mind, soul and spirit this is why. I urge any non Muslims to just try it. Try fasting from before dawn til dusk, it will make you feel very good when you finally can break your fast and before that every time your mind turns to food you remind yourself “This is what it’s like for the starving people all around the world.”

    I'm a Catholic living in the biggest Muslim country. And every Ramadan, I receive tens of offers to join Bukbers (Buka bersama, basically breaking the fast together) and If-tar dinner despite not being Muslim or not even being family. Most of these invitations come from good friends, a small percentage came from acquaintances and the rest came from distant neighbours I've only met like once a week. They don't care that I'm from a different religion, or that I don't celebrate Ramadan, all they care about is that I haven't eaten dinner myself and that I respect them as humans. It is a wonderful time of year when dinner is never eaten alone.

    Ramadan Mubarak to everyone! I lived in the Middle East and in South East Asia for many years, so I've had the chance to know Ramadan in different cultures. I've been to many iftar dinners from very humble ones to one in the Burj Al Arab in Dubai, and I am grateful for every one of them. Here's my little advice: if you are not Muslim and you get invited to an iftar, particularly if it is at a private home or with close friends, eat a lot less during that day, whether it is complete fasting or just taking something very light or just some liquid (I didn't have much problem not eating before those occasions, but I find not drinking anything for a whole day very hard... your mileage might vary!). You might do it a sign of respect for their traditions, you might do it to make the experience more interesting, or you might even do it just not to gain weight during Ramadan (which tends to happen, believe it or not!), that part is up to you. In any case, you are almost certainly going to find a lot of food of the best kind they have to offer, and much more importantly, a warm welcome and a feeling of togetherness.

Every December I took time to research and teach about Eid, Ramadan, Hanukkah, First Nation traditions and many other celebrations. They all have so many elements in common. For example, all are centred around family, caring for others, giving, food, candles and are a time of joy. Many Muslim families still stand out a decade later as being very gentle, kind, caring and helpful. This is such a beautifully edited story of a beautiful people with beautiful traditions.

During Ramadan, those who can afford also feed the poor. Ramadan ends with Eid ul Fitr, which is the time in Bangladesh when we give, or rather, realize Zakat (literaly "that which purifies the soul") (alms giving to the poor), which together with the profession of faith, prayers, fasting and, subject to ability, pilgrimage to Makkah, form the five basic pillars of Islam.

    I’m so grateful to you for this video. Although I’m not Muslim, my husband is. He is from Morocco and has recently arrived in the US. This is his first Ramadan without his parents, brothers and sister around. In regards to the food, he has been able to have the regular Moroccan Iftar meal which starts with dates and includes harira (soup), homemade yogurt, a hard-boiled egg, msemen or baghrir, and chebakia. There are a few of the items that may change up each night, but that’s the basic meal.
