This week, my column explains what Ramadan is.
If, however, a Muslim breaks the fast intentionally, he/she must make up the day and also pay a penalty. Possible "fines" include 60 days of additional fasting, feeding 60 meals to the poor or freeing a slave. That's why I'm never gonna be a Muslim. Damned if I'm gonna risk getting rid of my slaves (or, as we call them in the newspaper biz, interns).
Read the rest of the column, if you'd like.
