A Dearborn Arab woman reflects on her understanding of fasting

by Rasha AbuJaber

Some of my memories involving Ramadan were from my elementary and middle school years in Amman, Jordan. My brother and I attended a private Muslim School for a few years as it was highly regarded for education in the area we lived in at the time. Except for one other student, we were the only Christians amongst thousands of students. We were not required to attend “Dein,” or Religion class, teaching the Quran and Islam. We did still need to recite Surat Al-Fateha every morning at assembly though, and we did not mind.

Tao and Tawheed is dedicated to exploring the mysteries of faith, reason, and meaning. We aspire to provide articles and videos that stimulate the serious consideration of truth as seen through the lens of these and related ideas: logic, purpose, order, beauty, hope, love, morality, happiness, natural law, intelligibility, science, and divine revelation to expand the list. Our presupposition is that all these things exist and create the tapestry of reality. They are so fundamental they both govern and drive us whether we know it or not. And through the art of good thinking, metacognition and civil discussion they are discernible to us as the rational beings that we are. This is what makes humanness wonderful.
