We follow Haidar and his young British Muslim friends as they finish 30 days of fasting from sunrise to sunset. We observe them talking about their experience of fasting over the previous month and about what its like to be an observant young Muslim in British society.

    Its good to have an insight into the life of a young Muslim, there's so much bad publicity around being a British Muslim that I'm sure items like this are seen as a refreshing change to the links to suicide bombers and terrorism.

    Click the link and you'll see a differing perspective to the Sudan Teddy Bear Scandal and how it affected a British Muslim and how people perceived her...

  • Ramadan is reminiscent of Lent in the Christian religion. A time to be good! Just like one of the characters in this film stated. If only more people could see the similarities. I knew some of the information portrayed in this film and it just re-iterated our connection like someone once reminded me. "We are all connected". How true is that statement. Thank you. I enjoyed the film; it really sparked some thoughts.

  • Great reportage Dan, really shows how well you get on with people. And I thought the Dad(?) at dinner was really moving. Super sweet when the younger guy leans over and kisses him on the head. Lovely.

  • A great video, beautifully done.

    During Ramadhan Purity of both thought and action is important. Fasting redirects the heart away from worldly activities, cleanses the inner soul and frees it from harm.

    May God accept their fasts and reward their good actions. Peace

  • this emanated poignant insight into the true beauty and harmonious dexterity of Islam itself. the media's overtly biased and unbalanced portrayal of the fastest growing religion on Earth needs to be altered. this pod did that with prose by averting the preset criterion of injustice and discrimination that dominates the media's portrayal of Muslims. Thank you for submitting the pod and keep up the good work. Peace.
