Ramadan is a month when Muslims are suppose to fast. Fasting "s- Fasten", from sunrise to sunset, means (among many things): no food, no drink, no sex & to remind us that we should always be good, be nice, give charity...etc.
Duration of fasting is so much varied around the globe. It depends about the geographical location, where some places the day is around 8 hours and in other countries like Germany it is about 19 hours.
Anyway I decided to fast and see how it goes here. It's good so far, though I do fast about 15 hours (it's complicated to explain why not 19 hours..just pass over, please!!).
Ramadan is much about the spiritual side. It makes sense with company of the family. Well, unfortunately both of them are missing here.. BUT few days ago I got the chance to feel such feeling!! :D
Dear Maisoun Othman, a 2014 ifa CrossCultre participant from Egypt, just arrived few days ago to ... STUTTGART of course ;) ... and I'm her tutor during her internship! Yes, I know I know, I'll write soon about this experience :P
So Maisoun and I had the chance two days ago to attend Iftar organized by an Egyptian association in Altes Feuerwehrhaus.
Well, it was WONDERFUL! The atmosphere was so lovely "lebhaftes Ambiente"! Lovely dinner with many Egyptians and Germans and...one Yemeni! hahahah
I liked that many Germans were there and shared this spiritual meeting. The spiritual music was on all the time in company with the DELICIOUS homemade fooooood :D
OK, I'll just let you enjoy the pictures ;)
