One beautiful thing about Ramadan is how it brings people together, family, friends, and the whole community. It is a time of sharing, kindness, and unity, especially during Iftar and Taraweeh.

A few years ago, I was deeply fascinated by what I witnessed in Morocco, where families gathered in community squares and gardens to break their fast and pray Taraweeh together. It was amazing to see how they shared food and joy, even with their non-Muslim friends. This reminded me of how, in the past, it was common in our communities for neighbors to eat together, especially during Ramadan. Sadly, this tradition has faded over time due to various reasons.

This Ramadan, let’s revive this beautiful tradition. Share whatever you have for Iftar with someone, especially your neighbors. Even a small act of kindness can make a big difference and bring us closer as a community.

Allahumma Ballighna Ramadan. ❤️
