Thank you for sharing this. It gets the information across is a succinct and fun way. Would it be OK if I shared promoted this in my workplace? If so, are you able to advise what format it is available in? Thank you.
This is great - would you be happy for us to share within our organisation?
Yasar Ahmad thanks for putting this together. It’s nice to be able to learn and share about traditions. Just one question, did you use AI to make these delightful graphics ? 🙂
Any traditional greetings for Ramadan? For Yom Kippur, it's traditional to say "may you have an easy fast." Also "may you be sealed in the Book of Life." (that one is complicated, and starts with Rosh Hashanah). I'd like to use similar greetings (In English or whatever) for my Muslim friends and work colleagues.
Thanks Yasar! This captured my interest - great post. I'm curious, are their any positive physical/mental effects associated with fasting that you've noticed?
Such a nice post Yasar Ahmad, as a Muslim myself, it felt amazing to read through it and get some material to share with my small network, so thank you very much 💚 Also, coincidently, Ramadan will start right after the International Day to Combat Islamophobia (on March, 15th) this year so it might even help all our allies to be even more vigilant for us 💞 Reposted ❣
Always remember the Muslim astronaut who had the problem that dusk occurred 45 times a ‘day’ as they whizzed around in Earth orbit!
Thanks… You really think the number 8 was needed? ‘btw, it is ok to eat in front of us’ to me sounds quite strange to read that. I think for a second if it was not ok… madness right?… so why say it thanks again for refreshing
Yo Yasar Ahmad - is it offensive for a non-muslim to join the fast. Thought just appeared in my head, thought i would share it immediately otherwise would not share it at all
