Ramadan is almost upon us: the Islamic month of fasting and contemplation is set to begin on Friday evening.

While most Muslims are looking forward to the opportunity to reaffirm their faith during ‘the holy month’, some have taken to social media to express their foreboding over one particular aspect of Ramadan they do not enjoy.

All. Of. The. Questions.

So, to all the non-Muslim people out there, here are a few questions to avoid...

"Do you wash?"

"Can you swallow your spit?"

The month of # Ramadan is fasting, of course, but also patience with questions like "Can you at least swallow your saliva?".

"Do you want to watch me eat?"

But the question that Muslims dread the most is... “not even water?”
