That means his last meal was at two in the morning. I don’t think the fast is the issue. If you east dinner at 6PM and skip breakfast, there’s 16 hours right there. The issue, I believe, is the changed sleep patterns to accommodate the fast.
Made up symptoms to shield another jihadi from any kind of charges.
Two years ago, I sat in a class (9:00 to 13:00) with half the members of the Ramadan faith. The room was not air-conditioned...mid-summer heat...and you could gauge stress and inability to concentrate at absolute maximum levels of “10”.
Along about noon, you could tell dehydration was setting in and for anyone over the age of forty....blood-sugar levels were falling. Class attention? Half the class was unfocused and the instructor’s effort were null and void. Around the 3rd week of this Ramadan business....I finally gave up and quit the class. Most of the class was far behind and weren’t going to be able to participate or do well in the class.
My humble opinion is that if you are awful focused on Ramadan and trying to make it 16 hours without food or drink...I won’t hire you for any job. I won’t ride a bus with such a driver. I wouldn’t ride a cab with such a driver. I wouldn’t hire your company to install new windows in my house with a Ramadan installer guy.
Nothing personal...but your act of stupidity is a direct safety threat to those around the general public. Maybe in the year 700 era....some idiot could come up with a gimmick like this and sell the public easily on just sleeping all day and doing nothing in work. But in today’s world...it won’t work.
In this case of the subway crash...I’d bring in every single Muslim employee and give them two weeks to decide on their employment future.

Was the ignoring of the signal intentional or not? That’s the real question here, not if he was inattentive due to fasting. This happened at 6:30pm, just a little after rush hour, and while his train was empty, I’m sure there were many full trains running on those tracks.
No nation has ever survived “Diversity.”
Or maybe he just went jihad.
Ridiculous islam, founded by a thief, pedophile and mass murderer.
We have thousands of muslim cabdrivers in the US. Wonder how many of them fast while driving, and endanger the public because of it?
“there was research showing fasting can affect people’s concentration levels”
I would bet that Captain Obvious would have written a few papers on the subject.
The BBC trying to obfuscate again? Other sources say he didn't eat or drink for 16 hours, as the idiotic muzzie rules require.
It's the dehydration that gets you. I often not eat anything all day long until a late dinner, maybe 10 p.m. But I drink lots of fluids during the day. No problems.
my friend is diabetic...he couldn't be a mussie, he needs to eat....
Muslims during Ramadan are even crazier then usual. Irritable as hell.
