Ramadan

For believers, the Holy month came - Ramadan.

I received an interesting letter from a friend of a social activist from Kyrgyzstan Umarahunov Ilhoma \ Umarahunov Ilhom :

"If you do not take into account a handful of fanatics, Arabs - in my opinion - people are quite relaxed and prone to contemplation.

They have the word "jihad" to designate paranormal states. Literally: "strain, make efforts."

Build a house, plant a tree - all this is jihad.

If this word were in Russian, we would say:

- "You can’t take it without jihad and a fish from the pond."

- "Patience and jihad will grind everything",

- Who is not jihad, he does not eat ",

- "Jihada is time, fun hour."

But any foreigner, knowing only about our class jihad for the work of communism, would still swallow Validol when he heard this word. "
