The Long Flight Fast — Ramadan on the Road, Book Two
Ramadan at 38,000 feet.
You board in daylight. Ten hours later the light is still there — a long gold line under the wing that will not go down. The cabin announces iftar by the clock of the country you left; your body says fifteen hours; the sun says otherwise.
This guide settles one question properly: when, exactly, may you break your fast in the air — the sun where you are, not the cabin clock, and the second sunset you must ignore. Then the part nobody prints: the westbound day that will not end, the eastbound night with no suhoor, the month that begins in one country and ends in another, and what to do when the fast becomes too much.
Inside: the one rule · flying west and flying east · the hardship concession and when it applies · suhoor at the gate · the 31-day month · a card to photograph and keep in your passport wallet · a log for the days you owe.
One download, three editions — A4 (print), US-Letter (print in the US and Canada) and a phone edition sized for the screen — plus the free one-page In the Air card to photograph before you fly.
General reading and practical company, not a fatwa. Every ruling was checked against published scholarly answers before it was written; where the scholars differ, this book says so rather than choosing for you. Your own case — illness, medication, pregnancy, nursing, a long stay — belongs with a qualified scholar. Personal use only; not for resale or redistribution. No refunds on digital downloads.
