Ramadan Mubarak...Happy Ramadan !
Traditions and holidays connect us to our roots. No matter where we go, we have traditions to make us feel at home.
For millions of refugees, their faith and the observance of Ramadan are critical to keeping them going. It brings hope and community. But what does celebrating Ramadan look like when you’re a refugee ?
For 13-year-old Syrian refugee Abdallah and his visually-impaired mother, the month means fasting and praying at home. It’s modest but they are happy. “The best moment of the day is when Abdallah is next to me...He is the only thing left for me in this life,” says Abdallah’s mother.
Even though she won’t be able to see her son perform their Ramadan traditions, she will always feel Ramadan deep down in her heart.
