RAMADHAN

Ramadhan is the month of fasting for Muslims all around the world. It refrain us from eating, drinking from dusk to dawn. It teaches Muslims about patience, spirituality, humility and submissiveness to God. Muslims fast for the sake of Allah and to offer more payer than usual. It is the 3rd pillar in Islam.

Both Shakira and Shakiel started fasting at the age of 5 and at the time we felt it will be a good practice for them to start at a young age. Though, they did not manage to always complete a whole day fasting but over the years they had improved tremendously.

Today is the 20th day of Ramadhan and they have not missed a single day. Alhamdulillah.
