More than ever, compassion for others and abstinence are vital for our communities, and a key part of the Islamic faith. Now that the month of Ramadan has begun, you can create a festive atmosphere around your home to share the spirit with your loved ones, near and far.  

 

Ramadan is the ninth lunar month in the Islamic calendar, and the delicate crescent moon symbols are a way to subtly illustrate this during the holy month.



 



As the sun sets, adorn dining tables with golden pillar candles, interspersed with warm white fairy lights, creating a magical glow for the entire family to enjoy.

 

In some regions, traditional lanterns are often observed hanging throughout the streets from windows or balconies, creating a colourful glow as far as the eye can see to welcome to month of Ramadan. Place a lanterns around your home to emulate this sentiment and to spread joy to those around you.
