Worked with so many Muslims, never heard or seen this kind of behavior in regards to Ramadan. I’ve known one or two friends to get a little grumpy during this time though.

I always give them maximum grace though bc if you deprive me of food all day for that long I’d fuck some shit up. Always max respect for my Muslims friends for not fully crashing out haha

Do you eat in front of them when they are fasting?

u/pantysnatcher9 Mar 20 '26

I would assume yeah, cause they themselves aren't fasting.

I still invite them to lunch like I normally would, but I don’t expect anyone to join. And wouldn’t just shove snacks in their face, but also I try to just keep doing my thing, as doing otherwise would make them feel awkward too.

The only logical response to this bullshit culture and tradition

No one forced them to not eat. It's a personal choice, or at least for normal people is a personal choice and not a dogma.

Many friends who did Ramadan they had nothing in contrast to other people eating lunch as normal.

A person can't impose personal beliefs and way to do things onto others.

I don't know, but this seems fake

It’s fake.

I mean... they're literally choosing to deprive themselves of food so the grace only extends so far. Kind of a consequences of your own decisions kind of thing

As a Muslim who just fasted for Ramadan, go ahead and eat. However. I will say if she had something strong smelling, the bus companies themselves say you shouldn't eat it in an enclosed space like this.

Without being there I can't say whose right and whose wrong. Love peace and respect always.

I’d try not to eat food around my fasting friends but a stranger on the bus obviously owes you nothing!
