Ramadhan Kareem

bulan mulia, bulan yang ditunggu
bulan Ramadhan tiba lagi
alhamdulillah, syukur pada Allah
kerana dipanjangkan usia
untuk menunaikan dan menikmati Ramadhan

Ramadhan Mubarak !

there are things that i look forward
when it comes to Ramadhan in UAE
- there's no food bazaar or pasar malam
(hence, takde la kes membazir makanan or pembelian)
- but, akan ada banyak juadah sedekah di masjid-masjid
- no one is allowed to eat, drink or smoke
in public during the day (even for the non-muslims)
- no night-clubs will be opened

as always (this is my 5th time berpuasa di UAE)
Ramadhan is a very quiet month indeed (at least during the day)
restaurants will be closed during the day
most shops are open only for a short period
official working hours for offices will be shorten
(mine will be between 9am - 2pm)

apapun...
selamat menjalankan ibadah puasa
to all fellow muslims
semoga mendapat keberkatan hendaknya

Ramadhan Kareem !
