[ALIGN=LEFT]Good Afternoon
I have to apologize for those who discourage the posts of topics in languages other than Arabic, and welcome those who appreciate the opportunity to exercise English whenever possible
Here is an opportunity, or rather one that I am making available
Please treat the topic with your usual care and interest as if someone, a non-Muslim, will be reading it with urge for learning and possibly someone who possesses a high potential to convert to Islam. In other words, give it your extreme thought to make your views, opinions, and thoughts convincing. I know expatriates, where I work, might be reading your inputs later
The idea of this post is to share with you, as Muslims, your views on the holy month of Ramadhan, and why we treat it as the holiest month
I will be presenting questions or arguments, as if they're coming from a non-Muslim, and for you to answer from the TOP OF YOUR HEAD in an educating manner, the type that you would use to convince a non-Muslim the values of fasting, for example. Do not copy from "already" published answers, texts, or books. Answer from your own judgments and your own experience
Let me start with an argumentative question
Why do you fast, and why particularly Ramadhan
More questions will follow
Based on your answers, I will come back to defend the non-Muslim views or reactions
I would understand if you find the idea dull and boring
By the way, you are not idiots, but someone out there may be calling you that, would you let him
