3月10日 - 4月9日, 2024

斋月 , observed by Muslims worldwide is a significant month in the Islamic calendar. 在此期间, Muslims fast from dawn to sunset, focusing on self-discipline, 精神上的反射, 感激之情, and empathy for others. Those of the Muslim faith refrain from food, 喝, 和吸烟, and engage in increased prayer, 慈善机构, and reading of the Quran.

开斋 is the name of the meal eaten by Muslims at sunset to break their fast during 斋月. It is the main meal of the day for those who are fasting. The other meal of the day for those fasting is called Suhoor , which is eaten early in the morning before dawn

斋月的结尾是 开斋节 , a festive celebration marked by communal prayer, 盛宴, and the exchange of gifts, symbolizing the spiritual accomplishments achieved during the past month.

During this month, it is important to recognize those celebrating and support them. Some ways you can support your friends would include:

  • Be considerate when making plans: Arrange to meet earlier in the day when they may still have energy from their dawn meal. 从er alternative ways to hang out that don’t conflict with their fasting, like going on a walk instead of meeting for lunch.
  • Check-in on your Muslim friends: Feel free to ask them how they are doing. Doing so will help your friends feel loved, supported, and seen.
  • Don’t ask why someone isn’t fasting: There are many reasons, which may be personal. Those who are not able to fast may still choose to take part in other ways of worship.
  • Ask questions: Ask how you can best help your friends celebrate and practice their religion alongside life at 利记sbo.

During 斋月, you can exchange greetings by saying “ 斋月Kareem ” which translates to “Have a generous 斋月” in Arabic, or “ 斋月穆巴拉克 ” which roughly translates into “Happy 斋月”.
