RAMADAN
Ramadan is the time of the year which has different meaning for all the muslims depending on their personnel preference.
In Qatar people of other faiths who previousely were not familiar with Islam or only knew it through media experience it first hand.
This is an oppertunity for them to learn first hand that and then make up their minds about muslims similarly this is an oppertunity for the muslim community in Qatar to learn about them .
for sure all muslims are not terrorists and all westerns are not sex crazed deviod of family values and culture.
I invite people to comment on their positve interactions with other faiths .

QDC
Declared Holy by Christians.
every one is entilled to his ejoyments western or otherwise the interaction is that it makes us realize that all are same with simmilar problems like bad boss
joys like smile of your child and we all have to deal with daily chores I think this is what makes us more understanding.
Ramadan is a month of fasting.
Physical abstentions and intensification of acts of worship are a means towards attaining the spiritual objectives of self purification and improvement.
Essentially a month of training used to discipline/prepare oneself for the remainder of the year.
During the Month of Ramadan
Be considerate of and supportive to the Muslims around you
Fasting gives the body the environment to heal itself--physiologic rest”
“Abstinence from food for a short time can in no way operate to the disadvantage of a normal person.”
“In fact, individuals affected with certain types of gastrointestinal disorders are benefited by fasting.”
“Fasting has also been used in cases of diabetes and obesity.”
“It is a cleansing process and a physiologic or functional rest which prepares the body for future correct living.”
The condition of hunger gets highlighted on each fasting person leading to:
Care and concern for the poor and hungry
Helping attitude towards have-nots
Charity and donations
Refrain from wasting food and drinks.
Social responsibility
SAID
Allah has no need for the hunger and the thirst of the person who does not restrain from telling lies and acting on them even while observing fast.”
“ When one of you is fasting, He should abstain from indecent acts and unnecessary talk, and if someone begins an obscene conversation or tries to pick an argument, he should simply tell him, ‘I am fasting.’”
The month of Ramadan is around. We are happy to present information on Ramadan which, we hope, will prove to be useful source of knowledge for you.
This, we expect, would help you to explore more about Ramadan, appreciate the significance of this blessed month.
We hope that this presentation will make your fasting purposeful and rewarding.
In another way, this is Ramadan gift for you.
People, a great blessed month has come upon you.
Allah has made fasting during it an obligation, and steadfastly observing its nights in worship a voluntary act.
Whoever undertakes an act of obedience to Allah during this month with a righteous deed, it is as if he has performed an obligatory act at other times,
and whoever performs an obligatory act during it is as one who performed seventy obligations at other times.
It is the month of patience, and the reward for patience is Paradise.
It is the month of goodwill, during which provisions are multiplied.
Fasting does not:
cause the stomach to atrophy
paralyze the bowels
deplete the blood
produce anemia
cause the heart to weaken or collapse cause the heart to weaken or collapse
produce deficiency or mal nutritional disease
reduce resistance to disease
harm the teeth, the nervous system, glands or vital organs
weaken the vital powers or cause mental disturbances.
Could be an opportunity, but fails to materialise, just visit the Ramada tents in Ramadan "belly dancing", of course us westerners enjoyed it lol
