Marhaba! If you are Muslim or you have Muslim friends, you would know that the Holy Month of Ramadan is really about self-evaluation and self-reflection. You would also immediately realize that many of the traditions and activities related to Ramadan are common in other Abrahamic religions as well as other religious traditions. Prayer, fasting, inner reflection, good deeds, and charitable actions are some of the many traits that cut across religious and secular lines. I am sure many of you know most of the traditions and activities on Ramadan<\/a> from the previous post, and that you were able to solve the fun Arabic crossword puzzle. I have a recommendation to all of you. If you have not been invited by friends over to Iftar, how about you suggest that you would like for 1 day to live the entire spiritual experience and family traditions? You could suggest fasting for the entire day and then breaking fast, praying, and partaking in any related Ramadan event, be it fun or spiritual. Trust me it\u2019s rewarding in many ways. In this post, I am sharing the answers to the Arabic crossword puzzle, and some short useful notes on these different words.<\/p>\n
