Christian polemicists interpreted Ramadan’s permission of marital sex as liturgical scandal

Evidence

Fidenzio, with restraint and accuracy, quoted the Qur’an correctly: ‘(your wives) are your garments, and you are their garments’. Marino, using phrases from Pedro de Alfonso, reproduced his traditional argument with some force. Verona put the same case less strongly, but said that Ramadan was constituted in order to obliterate the thought of Lent from the hearts of Muslims. — Norman Daniel, Islam and the West, 1231
