“Most Americans eat when they are hungry, drink when they are thirsty, and bond when they feel the need.”, Ibtihal explains in her self-titled autobiography, “That sounded logical to me, but my family had different beliefs that prohibited me from eating or drinking throughout the day for an entire month in a practice known as fasting.”
