Ramadan Mubarak

By @oldtimer6/7/2018photography

We have many different cultures and religions in the world. Some of them are well known and some less. For some small or newer ones we don't even know they exist.

We all know Islam is one of them.

I'm not in favor of any. People are free to choose.

I can see a lot of similarities between steemit and the real world. It's a mixed bag.

I decided to show you one of them. Just a tiny part of course. A couple of sentences or photos can't do that but if you interested in the subject you can do your own research and learn something new.

This month is the holy month for all the Muslims around the world. Ramadan. I am sure that most of you heard about it.

What is Ramadan?

Ramadan is the fasting month for Muslims. It falls in the ninth month of the Islamic calendar.

Participants fast during daylight and generally eat a meal before sunrise and after sunset, called suhoor and iftar.

The end of Ramadan is marked with a large celebration.

You know at the first moment that you entered an Islamic country by mosks. They are everywhere.

Proper lights add the value to the architectural and spiritual aspect.

They plan ahead and sometimes mosk is among the first buildings in the new residential area.

I saw this sign on the ceiling of my hotel room and I was thinking that is some kind of safety warning or approval certificate.

My friends explained to me that every room has this sign which points towards the city of Mecca.

Two items you'll find in every hotel room in Dubai.

The closer to the center of the city you get the better the architecture of the mosks gets.

I hope you saw and learn something new today, my friends.

Ramadan Mubarak to all my Muslim followers.

Have a great day, my friends.
