Good evening dear 馃寬
How are you?
This is the second day of #Ramadan in #Gaza.
The fast itself starts every day at the first light of day (and it ends at sunset). It coincides with one of the five daily prayers, Fajr. Before Fajr, we eat a morning meal called Suhoor. My family always wakes up and eats this meal all together. It鈥檚 wonderful.
Ramadan is a very communal experience. Everyone supports each other and is in a good mood.

The moon has been sighted, and Ramadan officially declared.
Joyous Ramadan Mubarak to my faithful cousins. May your fast remind us all of our abundance.
To my non-Muslim friends, please remember that during #Ramadan, most of the faith will be fasting during daylight hours. Please do not press food and drink upon people unless they request it.
"It's just coffee, it doesn't count..." It totally counts. It really does. If someone tells you they are fasting, for whatever reason, respect their autonomy. You don't need to know why, you don't need to second guess their decision based on your visual determination of their health, you don't need to offer an opinion. Just say "Cool" and move along.
