About Feasting , Oxymoron etc

[Guest guest]

Yesterday I was invited to a place for Iftar party. Both husband and wife

are really fit. At the time of Iftar we were given fruits, cucumber, and

some choley in a small plate and a glass of juice. After performing prayer

and chit-chatting for some time then we had dinner. They offered us mixed

salad, chicken curry and goat biryani and raita. Now it is up to us to

control our portion sizes. It is the same principle as you miss your

breakfast and there are chances of eating more at lunch.

Fasting is not only about not eating but realising how poor people feel who

do not get food. Anger, backbiting and all bad habits are not allowed and

that does not mean that it is allowed after Ramadan. But it will not be a

fast if one indulges in such things. Charity is to be given on certain

amount. There are certain criteria as to who this charity money can be

given to. I will keep on writing if I don't stop now..
