I thought it was cool though that the Muslims got up for early morning chow so they could eat before sun up. One day I heard they had catfish for breakfast. Its funny how being Muslim is situational when folks are in prison.lol. 
Its also funny to me how those who say they don't celebrate a certain holiday don't mind getting gifts though they refuse to get one.
I wonder how many do this? Have you seen this before?
Its like those who don't watch tv but watch it in hotels. |
Muslims don't go from strictly the Koran, but must go through the Sunna.
Sunna represents one of the two literal sources of Muslim Law, Sharia. Whether it is equal in value or inferior to the Koran, is a matter of definition and theology. In several instances, it can be said that the sunna has been used to understand the full meaning of the Koran. Therefore, the Muslims in the joint can take from their imam how he interprets the sunna concerning the Sharia law. So if a bottom feeder is on the menu, the imam, must of gave them the go ahead.
All the Brothers that I know you don't keep the Papal feast don't accept presents, and regard the day as any other day. When asked if they celebrate the birth of Christ, they reply that they celebrate the death, burial, and resurrection 365 days a year.
Myself personally disconnect the television, or ask the hotel to unbolt the television and remove it from the room. You would be surprised how many hotels I have had across America who obliged my family and I.
