During the month of Ramadan, Muslims refrain from eating and drinking during fasting hours ... but many abstain from more things than meets the eye.

Many Muslims tend to avoid flirting - and in some cases, men avoid women altogether - in an effort to avoid "sinning" during the holy month.

Naturally, many Muslim Twitter users have depicted the birth of "halal flirting" during Ramadan via posts on the micro-blogging platform. Here are some of the funniest:

In recent months, women across the Arab world have been standing up to domestic violence, making it clear they will not remain silent over any form of abuse. 

Things were no different over the weekend, when a Kuwaiti woman's savage statement against domestic abuse went viral on Twitter. 

The woman's words came in response to a question she was asked on ATV's Ramadan show "Don't lie." 

When asked if her husband beats her up, she replied: 

"He wouldn't be able to, he wouldn't even dare."

The host then told the woman it looks like she's the one who'd beat her husband up and to that she said:

"Yes, I'd take my right. I swear I'd take my right with my own hands." 

The woman's savage statement sent Kuwaiti social media into a complete frenzy and also divided tweeps. 

Many attacked the woman, deeming her words "shameless," however, others powerfully shut them down. 

Here's how the controversy played out online: 

"This is shameless, it shouldn't get to this. Offending her husband in front of people! A woman who doesn't respect her husband, doesn't respect her brothers. A man can divorce you, he wouldn't care, he could marry 10 other women, it wouldn't affect his reputation. But if you get divorced, your reputation is gone." 

"I hate these kind of *vulgar* women, at least respect your husband in front of the camera." 

"Maybe she's divorced! No wife would talk about her husband in such a disgraceful manner except if she was divorced." 

"First, the question is provocative. Second, I think she misspoke and didn't mean it this way. What she meant was that no man can beat his wife in general, she didn't mean her own husband in specific." 

"I swear she's so strong." 

"If they did this interview with a man and he responded the same way, they would've hailed him. But when a wife says these things about her husband, you call her rude and shameless. She's right in all she said, no man should get away with beating a woman no matter what." 

"Good on her."
