Ramadan Kareem! (61%)

Today is the first day of Ramadan and I just want to congratulate anyone that is muslim and/or is participating in this 30 days of fasting.

If you don't know what Ramadan is its basically the holiest month (30 days) for muslims and muslim fast (not eating or drinking anything) from sunrise to sunset to basically be put into poor people's shoes who barely eat/drink anything at all.

No this is not cruel of Islam for God to make this a must when the right age comes (basically when you hit puberty), its not like we're gonna die or anything if we don't eat, it's not hard or impossible if you focus your mind on the religion. And also if someone is too old/too young then they don't have to participate in it, its only for the healthy ones to do it. Also people that are sick/pregnant/breastfeeding don't have to do it either. So don't think islam is cruel to their followers.

Also you can eat before sunrise so almost every muslim wakes up and eats a meal to give them energy for the day, pray then sleep or start their day.

Another important thing about Ramadan is that there's no point of fasting without prayer or reading the holy book, the Quran. The while point of this is to become more religious and become a better person as well.

After Ramadan there is a holiday called Eid that we celebrate that the month of Ramadan is over, and I really love this holiday because we go pray in the mosque, meet family, eat desserts and yummy food, get presents, and dress really pretty and stuff.

But anyways I just want to wish all Muslims/people participating to have fun and Mubarak to you all :-)

(If your not muslim thank you for reading this too 💝 i hope i didn't make you feel left out or anything)

all the love ,
