♡ What is Ramadan?? ♡

   Ramadan?? What is Ramadan? Isn't that a month in which muslims fast? But what is fasting anyway??
Well.. yeah it is right, Ramadan is a month, it is not a person or a God. Muslims wait for Ramadan eagerly because it brings them joy and it brightens their lives, one thing we all know about Ramadan is that people fast during the whole month which means they musn't eat or drink during the day from sunrise to sundown. But there are many things that people don't know about this blessed month, it is so much more than a "severe diet" as some people see it.
The most important thing is: "Getting closer to God" and that is through *prayer*, reading the *Holly Quran* and *Zakat* which means (charity) which could be done in many ways: giving a particular amount of money to the poor, feeding homeless people/sick people in hospitals, buying toys and clothes for orphans...ect, each person has their own way of putting a smile on others' faces.
Another thing that muslims LOVE about Ramadan is the "Iftar" which is the time for eating after a long day of hunger. Mothers and daughters show off their cooking skills during the whole month, traditional dishes are very famous in Ramadan and they differ from one country to another, "Bourek" which is a traditional dish in Algeria is the king on the Iftar's table, it is delicious and crispy, most Algerians eat it every single day along with "Shourba" which is a healthy vegetables' soup.
After the Iftar, time for "Sah'ra" begins which is the time after Iftar, everyone loves Sah'ra time so they can enjoy their "dessert" while watching TV, others who still follow traditions gather with their neighbors to enjoy the Sah'ra together chatting, laughing and catching up ♥

♡ Ramadn Mubarak ♡

I WISH...  I wish there is something I can do to escape this room Sitting in its dark corner I can see nothing but blinding darkness I hear the wind And the heavy drops of the rain Hitting on the low roof So low that I can't stand tall The walls keep narrowing on me. I can hear another sound, This time it is my breath getting heavier, Everytime I think of how messed up everything is While nothing is really too messed up It is all in my head. Thinking of all the people I know And even those I don't know, expecting too much.. Friends, family. strangers All the plans I've been making And all the deadlines screaming loud... I WISH.. I wish I can stop time, And gaze at all the motionless bodies for a while Enjoy the silence or fall in a peaceful slumber Where I can wander in my own dreams Break the walls and escape Away from my dark compulsive thoughts Dreams where I can enjoy every moment, Without worrying about the next one.. ...

🌳 Environment? 🌳

We Are All Concerned, We Have One Planet 🌎 I have always wanted to tackle this subject, but I wasn't ready for it. Why? Well, simply because I do not consider myself an environmentalist nor an activist, I eat meat, I sometimes forget my shopping bag and use plastic bags, I use straws and I buy plastic water bottles. However, I believe everyone has the right to call for change even if they haven't the perfect profile for it. I am writing this article because I love my planet and I am very fond of nature. Nature is magical but we often forget how fascinating it is, we forget that trees clean air and enhance a community's respiratory health, and that oceans produce over half of the world's oxygen.                            Although I haven't taken huge actions concerning this matter, I have changed some of my daily habits to express my deepest love to nature and to the one and only planet we have. Some of ...
