Nihal chairs a debate about whether Tony Blair's donation to a charity for injured soldiers is blood money. Plus a panel in the studio answers all your questions about Ramadan.

At 1, Nihal asks Is Tony Blair's donation to a charity for injured soldiers blood money?

The former Prime Minister is donating the profits from his memoirs to a sports centre for injured soldiers. A spokesman said Mr Blair would hand over the reported 4 million pound advance payment plus all royalties to honour "their courage and sacrifice". The news hasn't gone down well with everyone though - Peter Brierley, whose son was killed in Iraq, called the gift "blood money".

Do you agree with him? Or is it a decent gesture?

After 2,

We will have a special panel in the studio who will be at hand to answer all your questions about the holy month of Ramadan. If you've got a question about fasting or if you want to know the importance of Ramadan, get in touch with us.
