Ramadan Around the World |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
At
the beginning of Ramadan, Mauritanians especially the youth hasten
to perform regular prayers at their appointed times in Mosques. It
is worth stressing here that Mauritanians start celebrating the
month of Ramadan as soon as the month of Rajab draws to a close. In
Mauritania, it is no wonder to see the haves, especially the
stingy, showing sympathy towards the have-nots during Ramadan. The
sense of solidarity and backing the poor is widely spread. During
the nights of Ramadan, the `Isha and Taraweeh prayers are aired
live from the Two Holy Shrines of Makkah and Al-Madinah. After
prayer people usually set at ease to listen to religious lessons
and heart softeners from the reliable scholars and Imams in
addition to reciting the Qur’an and listening to it. After
prayer, it is easier to see people visiting one another and
drinking Green Tea, which is a common drink in Mauritania.
