Sleep Eating Is a Real Thing

Muslims around the world follow the rules of Iftar (eating after the sun has set) and suhoor (eating before the sun rises in the morning). And while they do everything they can to be strict with themselves during this time, there's no doubt about the fact that it can be difficult. In fact, most Muslims have mastered the art of being able to eat while still half-asleep. For some, waking up so early and immediately eating a meal just isn't a natural thing for them to do.

So, you may find that the younger generation and the older generation will eat their suhoor with their eyes half-open and half-closed. And that really is a skill to be proud of.
