        This is religious bigotry. Fasting is practised by people of different faiths. Including Christians and Catholics. Some fast out of health benefits. Is the practise of fasting then which is dangerous. So are all who fast dangerous?

        I don’t know weather or not the immigration minister was coming from a place of love with this but i know I am & if someone is fasting, maybe taking a break isn’t a bad thing. I wouldn’t want someone to faint in a hot kitchen our working in a yard or of course driving.

        Please learn about the subject being discussed before ignorantly commenting. They only fast during daylight hours and they can eat if they are sick or have blood sugar issues. People can’t just take off two weeks of work bc you don’t understand how their religion works.

        I never said take off two weeks. I meant to take a break if they aren’t feeling well. If we take an average of 12 hours of daylight a day that’s still enough time for someone to get unexpectedly ill and faint especially if it’s a high temperature and they work outside.

        When the person suffers hardship during his/her fast and he/she is unable to bare it and the fasting is causing him/her serious hardship and ill, it is then allowed to break the fast as breaking the fast would relief him/her from the hardship.

        Every body and mind is different, the one fasting should know and feel it’s limitation and it is not allowed to burden yourself to bringing your self in danger. Muslims who continue too fast while in a situation that they know they will become seriously ill are in error

        This article is just your daily dose of “errr watch out for dem muzzzlimzzzz, the mzzzzlimzzz are dangerous and they tryna hurt us with there ramedonnnn” Kebab restaurants are a more serious threat filling you all with those calories causing potential obesity.

        I've been asking the same question for the past few years. I feel we're walking into a new Dark Age. Hoping I'm wrong about this.

        Someone fasting is WAY safer than anyone with a gun, or a drink

        From my personal experience Muslins who fast during Ramadan manage very well and this view of the Danish immigration minister is extremely patronising.

        One of the wisdom of fasting, is to remined you how blessed you are.. and to remember those who don’t have enough food ..
