Grammy-winning rapper Cardi B has shared her admiration for Muslims observing Ramadan, admitting that she personally lacks the patience and physical endurance to fast. The US star made the comments during an Instagram Live session on Friday, humorously reflecting on her own limitations.
“To my Muslims out there doing Ramadan fasting, God knew not to make me a Muslim. If I wake up and go three hours without eating, my head starts to hurt, and I’ll start hearing voices,” Cardi B said, explaining her struggles with fasting.
The mother of four elaborated on how hunger affects her mood, noting, “I don’t have the strength to be a Muslim. When I wake up, I have like a three-hour limit; if I don’t eat in three hours after I wake up, I start to hear shit. I start cursing people out.”
Despite acknowledging her inability to fast, the rapper expressed deep respect for the Muslim community’s commitment and devotion. “They love their God so much. I love when people are loyal to their creator,” she added.
Cardi B’s remarks come months after a notable moment in December when she made headlines in Saudi Arabia during the MDLBEAST Soundstorm festival in Riyadh. At the event, she greeted the massive crowd with the traditional Muslim salutation, “Salam alaikum,” and later commented, “everything is mashallah,” drawing attention to her cultural awareness and respect for local customs in the wealthy Gulf nation.
The rapper’s humorous yet sincere reflections highlight her recognition of the dedication required to observe Ramadan and showcase her admiration for those who maintain their spiritual practices with discipline and devotion.
Her candid confession also resonated with fans online, prompting discussions on the challenges of fasting and the cultural and religious significance of Ramadan worldwide.
Cardi B’s acknowledgment of the Muslim community’s devotion underscores her appreciation for religious commitment, even if she herself admits it is beyond her own capabilities.
This lighthearted revelation adds to the rapper’s history of engaging openly with cultural and religious experiences, showing her ability to connect with fans from diverse backgrounds while maintaining her characteristic humor and authenticity.
By openly sharing her personal limitations in a humorous way, Cardi B has drawn attention to the physical and mental discipline required during Ramadan, encouraging appreciation for those who faithfully observe the month-long fast.
Her admiration for the Muslim community’s steadfastness during Ramadan serves as a reminder of the dedication and resilience needed to practice faith under challenging circumstances.
