Today begins Ramadan

[x_jetstream]

Ramadan is a holy month to Muslims. I won't be joining anyone for meals during the day, as for the entire month I will be fasting from sunup to sundown.

I saw that dirty look, Madelyn. I'll be good and come down for regular checkups. But this is important to me.

If anyone has any questions, please feel free to wander by and ask. I'd be happy to discuss it. It is a time of reflection for me, a time to look back at the previous year and see what kind of a man I have been, and what sort of a man I want to be moving forward into the New Year.

Arabic class students - we'll be spending a good bit of time on language and culture during Ramadan. With a special surprise at the end of the segment. Trust me, you'll like it.

Salaam,
Haroun

I never get too much grief about the fasting thing, although admittedly, Passover is only a week...

I'm glad to hear that.

But you're not as medically curious as I am.

If you have the time, I would like to sit down and speak of faith to you. I think it would be educational. Maybe even fun, who knows?

Salaam,
Haroun

True enough.

I think I'd like that, sir.

These are not the dirty looks you are looking for...

Actually, I trust you on this one. It's not like you haven't been observing Ramadan quite capably for many years now, and know how to do it responsibly. Do let me know if you need any kind of help, however - some of your blood work's looking a little... cluttered, shall we say?
