What Is The Difference Between Christian And Muslim Fasting?

Answer Question

2 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Muslims fast during Ramadan. Nothing should pass their lips, liquid or solid, from sun up till sundown. It is to remind them of the poor and hungry. As far as I'm aware, Christians don't fast. They give up something for Lent, but that's not the same as fasting.

      I'm not sure about muslims fasting but I think they only fast meat and eat vegetables, and my church (christian) is fast anything you can sacrife to god for usually 40 days and if you can't do it for 40 days then you set your number of days and sacrife anything

      Muslims don't eat or drink ANYTHING when they fast, not even water. Once the sun has gone down they can eat and drink, but generally they can't eat much after a day of nothing - it tends to make your stomach shrink.
