One user commented that the interesting thing about this is that they probably thought someone was being malicious. It's really funny because a guy named Ramadan Mubarak could be born during Ramadan. Another user stated that it is dependent on where you grow up. He is not a Muslim, and he did not come into contact with Muslims until high school when he learned about Ramadan.

Ramadan is regarded as a spiritual journey for self-reflection, spiritual development, and remembering Prophet Mohammed's teachings. Fasting (Roza) is believed to help followers connect with the divine power and strengthen their faith. From sunrise to sunset, people refrain from eating or drinking anything, including water. Following evening prayers, they break the fast with a meal known as Iftar. Ramadan began on March 23 for the majority of the world and will end on Friday, April 21.
