Lets say that without it, the women folk would brood and mope around. And the women folk generally tend to be the glue at home. They keep the family connected in a way the male members cannot.

Ramadhaan is the month for Ibaadah. Everyone, both men and women should be encouraged to perform as much worship as possible instead of being engaged in activities that may not be so beneficial or necessary. Then again, maybe its just my conservative attitude towards things.

Then again, I suppose you could say that it's a South African thing. Extravagant foods are part of and parcel of our Ramadhaan's.
It happens everywhere, unfortunately.

And, while I do not condone lavish feasts, Allah has provided, so we express gratitude and partake of the bounties Allah has bestowed upon us.

Allah provides throughout the entire year. Why do we make it a point to go the extra mile in satisfying our nafs in Ramadhaan when in this month, we are supposed to do the opposite?
