Global warming strikes again

Now the days are getting longer, ffs what is next?

'Longest' Muslim holy month of Ramadan in 33 years begins

Muslims in the UK are facing the "longest" Ramadan in 33 years, as the holy month coincides with the summer solstice, meaning long days of fasting.

Many Muslims will not eat or drink water during daylight, which this year can last about 19 hours in the UK.

Fasting ends at sunset with a meal, known as the Iftar.

Ramadan is determined by the lunar cycle and will run from 6 June to about 5 July, but the timing shifts each year in relation to the Western calendar.

Earlier this year, exam boards said key GCSE and A-level examinations were timetabled this summer to take into account the holy month.

The Muslim Council of Britain has warned those who are fasting to be careful during long and hot daylight hours.

It says that as dehydration is a serious risk during hot weather, it is important to drink plenty of water between Iftar (sunset meal) and Suhoor (pre-dawn meal).

London's first Muslim mayor, Sadiq Khan, tweeted that fasting "won't be easy" and said he will miss coffee the most.

How is this global warming's fault?

Also lol they can't drink water? I thought it was only food.

Mohammad did it again.

Nothing's allowed in their mouth. Apparently licking a postage stamp means you fail ramadan, because the glue would pass your lips.

Wonder what happens if they get sand in their mouths.
