Could anyone please give me advice on what to do/not to do when visiting an elderly lady and her extended family during this forthcoming Ramadan period.
As a non- Muslim, I have little knowledge of the faith but I would hate to offend anyone.
Are there particular customs I need to know about/things I should do or be aware of on entering their home?
Are elderly people excused from fasting, for example? Is this usual or do elders typically fast too? Also, can younger family members make food for their elderly relatives (even if they don't eat it themselves?). Sorry for all the naive questions but am very keen to know more.
