Texy Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 Can't you cook that there also? If you get ingredients then cooking it isn't tough. naaah the roadside spit, sweat adds to the flavor and taste will be missing :((

J P K Posted July 21, 2012 Posted July 21, 2012 They don't practice it if they have to play matches during Ramadan, only very very few, in my knowledge, I cud b wrong, Saeed Anwar used to do it even while playing, I heard Javed Miandad too... Muhammed Yousuf after conversion used to optout of playing during Ramadan. I don't think so cricket falls in as a condition when you can quit fasting specially when you have an option to not play during Ramadan but there are many other situations like sickness, women issues, traveling (with certain conditions), old age, u at war or anything when fasting can genuinely put your health at risk, you are allowed to quit but you have to complete them in same number when your situation gets normal. Well if they are playing then its certainly difficult for them to fast... but since they are traveling (when they play in other venues) they don't need to fast as they are regarded as travelers.As fasting is not obligatory for travelers ' date=' nursing women , pregnant women , oldies (who cannot fast) , sick ... when they are finished with it then they have to fast during non ramzan days and complete the days.[/quote'] okies :two_thumbs_up:
KhanSaab Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 My Paki textbook reference was not about ramzan/ramadan. It was about the larger issue of consistent and wilful distortion and denial of history and native culture in Pakistan. Here's one study that documents this intellectually subversive exercise of a paranoid people - http://www.uvm.edu/~envprog/madrassah/TextbooksinPakistan.pdf Given that ramzan is the correct urdu word - pakistanis opting for the arab equivalent doesn't compute. Unless Naipaul was really onto something. Ramadan is the correct way to pronounce it, as it is the name of the month in the arabic language. Do you also insist on calling February, farvari instead, since thats what desis used to call it or have you corrected yourself? There is no grand conspiracy here, some people just prefer to call the month by its actual name in the original language.
Andrew Peter Posted July 22, 2012 Posted July 22, 2012 I don't agree to that... why wish Ramadan to non muslims? do they pray to the prophet? do u wish happy diwali to muslims? . Agree . Dont see the link there .

Mariyam Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 Why is it called Kareem Ramzan? Kareem = generous. I think it has something to do with the fact that the Holy Quran was revealed in the month of Ramadan, and hence the month is generous. But I'm not too sure about this.
Asim Posted July 23, 2012 Author Posted July 23, 2012 ^ kareem = generous right but "Ramadan Kareem" (Ramadan the Generous Month) is called in terms of how generously this month bring blessings for us and how our ibadaas are rewarded in this month... Also I must mention there is one worldwide popular misconception exists now specially among non-mulslims is that saying "Ramadan Kareem" is a way to wish Ramadan, which is Not correct and I dont see many Muslims bothering to correct them :) "Ramadan Kareem" is actually just another title name for this month exactly like "Ramadan" or "Ramadan-ul-Mubarik". To make a Ramadan wish we have to say "Ramadan Mubarik" or "Happy Ramadan" or “Ramadan Kareem Mubarik”... Note: "Ramadan-ul-Mubarik" and "Ramadan Mubarik" also have totally different meanings as mentioned above...
Needforspeed Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 In the Middle East they greet you with Ramadan Kareem. Mubarak is used only for the day of Id ie 'Id Mubarak'. So Ramadan Kareem to all the Muslim memebers on ICF. I will be enjoying a few Iftaars this year
Asim Posted July 23, 2012 Author Posted July 23, 2012 ^ "Mubarik" is not any reserve-word for Eid, u can use it to make best wishes for ANYTHING like in Urdu/Hindi we say Salgira Mubarik, nae job mubarik, Shadi Mubarik or simply we say "Mubarik ho"...
