78% households claim all adults keep all fasts: survey
More than two-third of Pakistanis (78%) keep all the fasts, 18% keep some where as only 4% do not fast at all, says Gilani Research Foundation survey conducted by Gallup Pakistan. Amongst the reasons for not fasting, respondents cited having no particular reason, age, and illness as the major ones.

A nationally representative sample of men and women from across the country were asked “How many people (adults) in your household keep all the fasts, some of them or none at all?” The results show that majority (78%) keep all the fasts, 18% fast sometimes, where as only 4% do not fast at all.

“How many adults in your household keep all the fasts, some of them or none at all?” `None’ responded by 4% whereas `Some’ by all 78% 18%. To understand the reasons behind not keeping a fast, the respondents were asked “What are the reasons due to which some people in your household do not fast?” Twenty-six per cent claimed that the reason for people who do not fast in their household is `Underage’, 20% stated it is `Old Age’, and 17% said `Illness’ does not allow some of their family members to fast.
