I figure there may be some muslims here.

What is ramadam (sp?)? Why the requirement to have no food during certain hours, also no sex?

Are there muslims who are more strict in their observance?

I know of a muslim who stays in a room with the door closed until 6 p.m. during ramadam. Is he praying? What's going on?

I'm just curious about the faith and though some knowledgeable folks here might be able to answer some questions.
