To me, "feeling like a train wreck" is not a good sign

The Arabs have a very long history of Ramadan. As an Arab, you may be much more comfortable with fasting than we non-Arabs can be. I have no idea when fasting can begin to be risky. In any case, I hope everything will be all right.

During Ramadan, Muslims fast during the day & then gorge themselves at night only to return to the fast again at sunrise

Thank you, Antwan and Sarah. I had somehow got confused about how Ramadan really works. So Ramadan fasters get to eat every night, huh? No wonder the Ramadan-fasting laborers managed to work all right on a construction site under intense heat in Iraq, where I was working.

I tried to fast Ramadan once with some Muslims. I couldn't do it. I'm weak. The Shaitan's got a hold on me. I got no iman. I am destined for the jahannam. Antwan the Damned.

Alhamdulillah, Sister Sarah. I have forgotten a lot. It's been many years. And I have not been keeping up my deen. I don't remember. Ramadan came up & they asked me if I was gonna fast & I tried but it didn't last long. I remember goin to an Arabic restaurant
...and to break the fast, they would give everyone dates. I enjoyed that, mashallah.
