Ramadan Rules

[Patricia]

Dear,

Is it allowed when you do sports outside like bicycle to drink water while cycling during Ramadan?

Some people say no problem, but I respect the culture and don’t want to risk a fine or be jailed.

If it is ok can I see proof on paper that I can take with me.

thanks

Dear Patricia,

Please note that during Ramadan fasting (no food or water) is a common practice during the day for Muslims.

Regardless of your outdoor activity you need to consider other people's efforts and culture.

You are not restricted to drink water in public, but you should do so without interfering or demotivating ongoing daily customs for this period of time.
