Ramadan Mubarak

in #photography6 years ago

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.

Another beautiful one in the desert.

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.

I will upvote and restem

I did learn a few things. I hope all is well with you.

Whoa, it's interesting. I never heard about this sign on the ceiling! Here in Europe, you can find the Holy Bible in the hotels.
It's also strange for me, that a Mosque is the first building at a new residential area. I grew up as a Christian, but we hardly build new churches. It's a really rare event.
I think that the most important lesson was I learned during my religious education that we should respect the others and their believes.
Fortunately, I've got a lot of friends with different religions (Catholic, Islamic, Jewish) and all of them tolerate the other. I wish it were all around the world.

The Vatican grab all the money. That's why we don't build churches. I was raised Christian too.

Exactly. That's why I distinguish church and a belief.
