What is Ramadan?
Safeer: You have to fast from dawn to sunset, and you feel like how the poor people feel and you have a strong connection with Allah, God, and you have to read the holy Quran.
Shamsa: It’s very hard. And you can’t … you have to survive as well, without food.
Ehtesham: I enjoy taking part in Ramadan, of course, because it’s a really spiritual time. You feel very close to God.
How else do people celebrate?
Shamsa: My mum and dad can fast, and I can’t. I raise money for lots of charities.
Sabeeka: You have to pay particular attention to your prayers, and so make sure you don’t start fighting with people.
What about school?
Hasher: I just won’t fast during my exams because in Islam, children aren’t allowed to fast. I am allowed to do a few, but just when I can. When I’m able to.
Sabeeka: For one whole day fasting I think you need to be 12 or 13. I’ve had a small fast. You start at dawn, at the same time as adults, but you end at a time round about midday.
Shakeeba: I’ve never done it and I’m going to have to do it my first time.
What is Eid?
Safeer: Right at the end we have Eid. We have a celebration and we can talk and play with our family and friends.

Yeah, I actually do fast in Ramadan...And now that Ramadan is next week I'm super excited for it..
Sure! I love it! But it's already the 27th day of it. We're gonna miss you Ramadan!
It's such a great opportunity to be closer to Allah. God.
I'm looking forward to Eid-Al-Fitr, though.
Ramadan Mubarak and Happy Eid to all of you! (:
Hey Saionji!!
Ramadan Mubarak and Happy Eid to you too.
Ramadan is coming to an end. Its 27th today and may be Laylatul Qadr.
Whats your preparations for Eid-Al-Fitr, this year.
Hey Hadia!!!!
How are you doing??
This year I'm trying to make the Eid day UNFORGETTABLE for my family>> But I got stuck on ideas:)
Really, I feel that for most people Eid is becoming a day in which you are happy and over-excited for a couple of minutes and then it all just starts to get repetitive.
So this year I'm trying to make the Eid day that special holiday that it really is, although I don't really know how !
How about you? ^.^
I wish you a very happy Eid with your family and your loved ones :)
Hi Saionji!!
I am doing good.
The feeling is great. Eid is here!! And I just can't believe that. I'm jovial. Well, this Eid many of my cousins are coming from different cities so we'll have a chance to sit together and do lots of fun. You know, this time is very special. The joy is matchless.
What about you? Are you planning something special? Best of luck. P.S Let me know about that too. ;)))
And thank you so much. I wish you and your family a Happy Eid too. ;)
Hey Hadia,,,
Eid Mubarak (:
This Eid was amazing. It's the best Eid ever! I don't know why,, maybe because I was trying really hard to so some little things that will make people happy,, or maybe I've just grown a little so I understood the importance of what we do in Eid.
Whatever the reason is,, it was Wonderful, and I hope it was to you too :)
Happy Eid to everyone celebrating it around the world
Eid Mubarak. To everyone round the globe. Yes. It's amazing feeling.
Best month of the year. I love it. And I do fast in Ramadan. Ramadan's coming soon. Ramadan Mubarak to everyone. ;)
