girlunderthecover:Ramadan Mubarak! The holy month of Ramadan is upon us once again! For those of you who don’t know, Ramadan is the month of the Islamic calendar when Muslims who are willing and physically able to, fast from sunrise to sunset. That means no food, and yes, no water. At sunset every night, families and friends gather around to break their fasts on a meal and this is called “iftar.” Ramadan is my favorite month because it reminds me of the blessings that God has gifted me with that can sometimes be taken for granted. I also love it because it just brings everyone so much closer. It gives me more motivation to go to my local mosque every night, give more charity, and strengthen my bond with God! I’m going to try and post as much as I can this Ramadan to answer as many questions as you all have about it and to just kind of document what it’s like to participate in Ramadan! ☺️ -- source link
