I think not ... Our Islamic countries do another thing entirely.

We allow people to work shorter hours ...
We have the shops open longer ...
We sleep longer during the days ...
We choose to live during the nights ... that way we can do more shopping, eat three meals and sleep most of the day to avoid feeling hungry.

We turn the day into the night and the night into the day

We changing our daily patterns to maintain our lifestyles, but should we not change our lifestyles as a result of Ramadan?

Do you agree? If not why not? Do you have anything to add?
I see nothing wrong with allowing people to work shorter hours or sleeping during the day if we don't have to go to work.
