Product Information

The Islamic holy month of Ramadan is upon us and that means a month of daily fasting for millions of people across the world, including many of the 342,000 Muslims who live in Birmingham according to the 2021 Census. As is usual for dates in the lunar calendar used across the Islamic world, Ramadan 2023 is once again being determined by the first crescent of the new moon. The origin of the lantern was associated with the presence of the Mesaharaty who walked the streets, calling on sleepers to wake up to eat the suhoor (last evening meal before fasting). At that time, he walked the streets with a young child carrying a lantern. In these areas you will find the most famous workshops and the most famous families who inherited this craft. In late autumn the holiday of Diwali is celebrated by those who practice Hinduism. Diwali is a five-day celebration of lights that symbolizes making wishes for the new year.

From the United States to Eastern Asia you now know the widespread use of candles in religion and practices. Candles signify unity, peace, and light. Without a doubt, candles are just as important in world religions today as they were centuries ago. It's the second year that Ramadan will return to being celebrated as it was before the pandemic. Mosques were all closed at the time of Ramadan in 2020, while in 2021 they were open again for communal worship but with limited numbers, advance booking, social distancing and other Covid guidelines. Candles are also used in the Sabbath or Shabbat which is a week-long period of rest. You can also find candles being used at any religious event due to their symbolism of rest and peace.

Women who are pregnant, menstruating or breastfeeding don't have to fast. If you begin your period during Ramadan fasting, the fast is broken and you must make up for it later. 6. Elderly or ill

The lanterns were often made of copper and the less expensive types from tin and coloured glass with a wooden base to place the candle in, with the addition of decorations and hand engravings. Kaffarah (meaning 'penance') is the compensation you should pay if you deliberately miss or break a fast in the month of Ramadan without a valid reason. Lanterns have been called by many throughout history such as Abu Hushwa, Abu Sharaf, Abu Al-Walid, etc. The reason for these tales is that the craftsmen who designed these lanterns were keen to write their names on them. Taoism is practiced and observed in Eastern Asia. Taoist do not practice many religious holidays but this doesn’t mean that candles do not serve a purpose in their beliefs. When someone cannot fast in Ramadan and can’t make up the lost days afterwards (for example, due to being elderly or because of ill health, women who are pregnant, breastfeeding or menstruating), then they should pay for someone else to be fed. This is known as fidyah.

So, now you have the greetings nailed, keep your eyes peeled for gifts with details synonymous with the holy season: crescent moons, the Hamsa Hands. Foodie morsels like traditional Medjool dates, nuts, and sweets, as well as pampering presents will also go down a treat. Now, take another chart to make the small square boxes of equal sizes. Make sure they are counted to 30.

Ramadan starts on a different date every year, due to the Islamic calendar following a lunar cycle. In 2023, it is expected to begin on Wednesday 22nd March. This date marks the start of when Muslims worldwide abstain from things like food and water between the hours of sunrise and sunset for 30 days. It’s a time for reflection and spiritual growth, giving and sharing. It is similar to the above one but it only gives the count-down of days rather than playing a role in the decoration.
