Tunisians Protest for the Right to Eat in Public During Ramadan

[Solomon2]

As per hadees, no prohibition. Actually fasting person gets more virtues if a non-fastig person eats in front of them.

I quote Trimzi's hadees: "The Prophet said: "When those who are not fasting eat in the presence of the fasting person, the angels send Salat upon him."
Reference : Jami` at-Tirmidhi 784 In-book reference : Book 8, Hadith 103 English translation : Vol. 2, Book 3, Hadith 784


Longer version of same
"...Prophet said to her: 'Eat.' She said: 'I am fasting.' So the Messenger of Allah said: 'Indeed the angels send Salat upon the fasting person when (others) eat in his presence, until they finish.' And perhaps he said: 'Until they have eaten their fill."
Reference : Jami` at-Tirmidhi 785 In-book reference : Book 8, Hadith 104 English translation : Vol. 2, Book 3, Hadith 785

Another hadees. Prophet himself eating in front of a fasting person
"Prophet was eating breakfast. The Prophet said to Anad: "Come and eat the breakfast." He said: "I am fasting." ......."
Reference : Sunan an-Nasa'i 2315 In-book reference : Book 22, Hadith 226 English translation : Vol. 3, Book 22, Hadith 2317

This is what I need, thank you.

No one prohibit "Eating"... none...
But in Tunisia, like many Muslim countries... Restaurant etc... have to close (Except Touristic areas or around Tourist affluence...)

These "many Muslim countries" are NO standard and do not provide any excuse for banning the restaurants to open during Ramadhan.

All this is done in the name of "respect" of religion, which is insane.

You could not usurp the basic right of drinking/eating whenever one is thirsty/hungry in name of respect of the religion.

By the way, the so called Muslim countries (that you quoted) are giving insane punishments to those who eat/drink outside during Ramadhan. There is no limit to insanity when it come to religion.

These fasting people are strange that after fasting for 12 hours, they got the pain that nobody else could eat/drink in front of them. They torture and punish them by blaming them for hurting the feelings of the Fasting people.

We have to be thankful that these poor children don't think like these Fasting people, although these poor children are compelled to fast for years.

If eating in front of fating people is really a crime of hurting the feelings, then these poor children have to burn all the "Iftar" ceremonies which are full of dishes of Qourma, Biryani, and meat and sweets. And they also have to set all the Bazars in fire which sell chicken rosts openly, while they are hurting the feelings of these poor children,

They can eat at home... Or buy your food/drink at the store...
Restaurants are not the unique way to fill your stomach...

And last... " their country their rules "

They can eat at home

Why should they eat/drink at home while they are out of home for the work?

... Or buy your food/drink at the store...

And then what?
Are then they allowed to eat in the open?
If yes i.e. eating is allowed in the open in Tunisia , then what is the purpose of banning the restaurants? It proves nothing else than religion is driving you to take non-sensible steps.

And you talked about "other Muslim countries".

Do you know that in Pakistan you are not allowed to drink/eat in the open even after buying from the store. So why don't you then condemn this "respect of Ramadhan" mentality in case of Pakistan?

Restaurants are not the unique way to fill your stomach...

Off course they are unique, while when one is out of home, then he has no opportunity to cook proper food for himself.

And last... " their country their rules "

There is no such thing as "their country their rules", while the "Basic Human Rights" have preference over this and no one is allowed to usurp the basic human rights in name of majority or religion etc.

According to the Ramadhan Ordinance of Pakistan:

* Canteens at airport, bus stations, bus stands could give water/food only to people who have a ticket which proves that they are travelling more than 75 km.

* Any house, room or tent where any common person could enter, will be called a "public place", where no person (including the non Muslims) could eat/drink during the Ramadhan.

Note1:

This law is not making it compulsory for the factories, offices, colleges, unversities, labour camps to allot a seperate room/place for the non-Muslims, old men, pregnant women, menstruating women where they could eat/drink in case of hunger/thirst.

Note 2:

Islam considers mentruating women to be impure to do worship including fasting (even if she is totally healthy). So, the menstruating women is neither allowed to fast, but also not allowed to eat/drink if she is compelled to go outside for the work.

And non-Muslims are also compelled to stay thirsty/hungry for several hours till the time they return back their homes. This is against the basic Human Rights.

Tunisia is the subject not Pakistan...
Eating/drinking in public is allowed...
You don't get tortured in Tunisia for eating in Ramadan...
99.9% of Tunisia is Muslim...

In the end... No one complained about it... Even minorities, mostly Jews... Encourage such practice... As they like to say " Ramadan month is unique and we enjoy it... "

Tunisia is the subject not Pakistan...

You earlier tried to justify it in name of "other Muslim countries" or "their land their rule".

Eating/drinking in public is allowed...
You don't get tortured in Tunisia for eating in Ramadan...
99.9% of Tunisia is Muslim...

If it is allowed in Tunisia, then it is not because of religion, but thanks to the SECULARISM in Tunisia.

But what about the other Muslim countries and the religion?

Why are you not ready to criticize the other Muslim countries for this draconian law, and declare it against the humanity? Why you want to hide it in name of "their country their law"?

In the end... No one complained about it... Even minorities, mostly Jews... Encourage such practice... As they like to say " Ramadan month is unique and we enjoy it... "

False, these are also the Tunisian people who are protesting against the closure of restaurants during Ramadhan and they have problems with it? Why you count Jews as Tunisian, but don't consider these protesters as Tunisians with the right to protest?

Also why are these protesters wrong when Tunisia claims it to be a secular country, and having to such Ramadhan law, but still the Tunisian Court sentencing Tunisian people to the prison for eating/drinking during day time in the open? There is no justification for this, but your attitude is to hide this ruling of the court in name of National law of Tunisia.

Also you didn't tell me what is the logic behind this decision that people are allowed to eat in the public, but still you are not ready to open the restaurants during the day time? Why are you able to see the madness in it.

You have an opinion and a view, and I'm not here to say what is right or wrong...
Let's end it here.
Best regards.
