Thank you everyone for your warm welcome and some great advices.
I generally don't have any issues with swearing or profanity as my 12 years of earlier Airforce career has amply prepared me on how to use them and how to develop thick skin against them. It was just that I felt that many good threads and discussions were merely derailed and lead no where because of it. Anyways lets move on.
Its month of Ramathan and thats reminds me that I will ask few questions from Allah about it..... What wrong did people of higher latitude do ? Do you really expect people of Iceland, Sweden or UK to fast for more than 20 hours everyday for whole month !!! What spiritual benefit are we really looking to gain from here by starving these millions of Muslims virtually for whole day? Or did you really thought that Islam will only restrict to desert where there's hardly any different in winter/summer daylight....
17 to 22 hours of fast is a torture and unhealthy by any standards. But many believers think that more torture you go thru , more blessings you collect . Muslims seriously need to address this issue and pass some ruling about it. But as most (so called) scholars are from Middle East and they are not effected by daylight issue so probably they are not even slightly bothered . Logic fails me here.
Rant over and out
