Ramazan/Ramadan same word, is the fasting month of the muslims. No food or water in ingested between sunrise and sunset. It is like Lent, but stricter. We have ywo Bayrams (Holy festivals ) This one is ths fating month, the other is two lunar months away and is the Kurban Bayrami - Sacrificial Festival. Originats from the Old Testament, when Abraham was going to sacrifice his son toGod and at the last moment Gos provided a Lab to replace the son. If you search for EID on the web you will come accross the festivals. Eid is the Arabic word for Bayram. In our childhood days it was a very happy occasion for obvious reasons. Plenty food and sweets and presents. And making up / ending of family feuds etc followed by lots of tears and begging of forgiveness. Cemetaries were visited and prayers said for our departed loved ones.

Let me know if your search fails.

I bet there isn't a single TC on this forum who fasted during Ramazan.!!!

Sorry for not getting back to you earlier, I was out and just came in...

I do thank you for taking the time to educate me...

I will look into it when I have some time...I am also not a religious person and restrict my self to only easter time for midnight mass and dinner, as a tradition really...

On a side note, you didn't have to make that comment did you? ...I think it was out of order...

happy bayram to everyone and their families...

Boomerang, no offence intended. I was just showing that I dont bare grudges. and I do respond to politeness in a positive way. Otherwise I just ignore. Sorry you felt like that.

[boomerang]

ok Deniz...water under the bridge...I also do not hold grudges...this is evident by the way I get things of my chest...Once off they are left behind...

take care
