Happy Ramadan!

Hello people,

Happy Ramadan to you! Ramadan Kareem! Ramadan Mabrook! Ramadan _______ (insert whatever greeting is said in your country- lol!)

So another month of Ramadan has descended upon us. Here is a list of classic moments in month of Ramadan!

1. Excessive eating at Suhoor (the meal before start of fast) to last me the entire day. (Attending suhoor parties too!)
2. Laziness at work among employees.
3. Less productivity at work.
4. Moaning and groaning of how difficult day is when fasting.
5. Tempers flaring everywhere as people become more agitated and irritated not having their daily cup of tea!
6. Risking your life in the traffic jam just before Iftar (breaking of fast!) and being exposed to the worst of human behaviour as road rage and cursing and swearing over takes the virtue of patience and decency!
7. Excessive eating at iftaar. (Attending elaborate iftar parties too!)
8. Excessive eating at dinner (different from iftar!) and attending fancy dinner parties too.
9. Standing for hours for the evening prayers (good sometimes because it helps me clear my thoughts and think about life and make plans!)
10. Collecting money from elders for fasting diligently.
11. People making promises to be more pious when Ramadan ends, only for them to return to their old ways within mere days!
12. Finally, the classic: At the end of the month of fasting, people scratch their heads and wonder how they gained so much weight when they had been fasting the entire month! lol!

Mansur
