1. Christian Fast _ those partaking lose weight while Muslim fast, they add weight.

2. In christian fast, food is not an issue, you can break by 6pm with anything, in Muslim fast, breaking is like a feast, they eat all the food they haven't eaten since morning

3. In christian fast, you wake up in the morning and fasting has commenced, in Muslim fast, you wake up very early to cook and eat heavy meal before the fasting commences

4. In christian fast, you don't announce it to the public, in Muslim fast, before you say how are you, they tell you they are fasting.

Islamic fasting is a joke all they do is skip one meal of the day and eat like gluttons during the other two meals. They eat so much that food prices actually go up during their 'fasting' because of high demand for food due to their gluttony.

Seems your logic is that the harder the fasting mode, the more acceptable it is to God. That doesn't make sense. You cant use the christian mode of fasting as a basis of measuring the validity of Islam's. The prescription is there to follow and we do that to the letter. You have no point.

I served in the North. I wont call their devotion to God* a joke, but I was very shocked when I realised they usually have two hefty meals each day during their fast

in Christianity, fasting is not compulsory, we are only advice to make peace with God.

Luke 18:9-14
The Parable of the Pharisee and the
Tax Collector
9 To some who were confident of their
own righteousness and looked down on
everyone else, Jesus told this parable: 10 “Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax
collector. 11 The Pharisee stood by himself and prayed: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like other people robbers,
evildoers, adulterers—or even like this
tax collector. 12 I FAST TWICE A WEEK and give a tenth of all I get.’
13 “But the tax collector stood at a
distance. He would not even look up to
heaven, but beat his breast and said,
‘God, have mercy on me, a sinner.’
14 “I tell you that this man, rather than
the other, went home justified before
God. For all those who exalt themselves
will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”

Some people fast and thought their own goodness was so impressive that it could not fail to make them acceptable to God. This is boasting.
But the tax collector would not lift his eyes to heaven, why? Because he feel guilt and ashamed, and he went on and say " Lord have mercy on me a sinner" this is the prayer God want to hear, (make peace with God).

Can a man that doesn't have a spirit understand why people fast? A blind Man cannot appreciate a good painting and a deaf Man can never appreciate a good Music.

hey! hey! hey! it seems u r nt getting something BT i will make it clearer to u here, dats y i normally say u guys sud nt use yr own knowledge to judge God's kos God's thought is totally different from human being's. to ur question, fasting means reconciliation between God nd human being. u wana b wit God u need to move wit God in spirit. every part of yr body dat av sinned to God need to suffer nd show some remorsement for the wrong they'v all done. by so doing God wil forgve nd u will become nw being being before the lord then God can nw answer yr prayer. remember to ask forgvness wen fasting. hope u r blessd nw?

Hey Johnny... Apparently u haven't heard about the myriad of scientific Literature showing the positive impact of fasting to the human body which has spurred the intermittent fasting movement as a means to treating diabetes and lowering insulin problems, weight control etc. I won't bother citing the spiritual benefits because U are vastly ignorant of that realm.

Muslim Ramadan "fast" is so hilarious..

WAKE up eat a large early break fast, skip lunch and frown all day then eat and binge on an early large dinner.... Sleep wake up and repeat.. . Little wonder some Muslims say they "supernaturally" gain weight during ramadan
