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.
Cant wait for Ramadan when all the non muslims start askin bare questions again when you're tryin not to think about food or drink

So, to all the non-Muslim people out there, here are a few questions to avoid...
"Do you wash?"
After reading some of the most absurd #Ramadan theories on social media, this particular one took the trophy. pic.twitter.com/2XUfCPzkpY

"Can you swallow your spit?"
Le mois de #Ramadan, c'est le jeûne bien sûr, mais aussi la patience face à des questions comme "Tu peux avaler ta salive au moins ?".

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?”
This Ramadan will be filled with love, hunger, blessings, & "Not even water?" questions.
