It is sad that during the holy month of Ramadan, instead of focusing on themselves, people find the time to judge people they don’t even know. Even outside of Ramadan it is inappropriate to involve in the private life of people. Asking about whether they are Muslim, Christian or Jew, whether they pray or fast. Because these people carry an Arabic name, Muslims automatically assume that they are Muslims. Like the line in Romeo and Juliet says: ‘What’s in a name?’ It is strange to me that Muslims tend to forget that Arab and Muslim are NOT synonyms. If a non-Muslim would mix these two up, it would be understandable, but a Muslim? It also seemed that the ‘Ramadan police’ forgot about the models’ other identities.
