In Company

8 Ramadhan 1433

Another paradox of the month: the experience of the fast fosters an extreme self-awareness. Yet much of the value of the experience lies in its communal nature. Put simply, you can never be unaware that you do not fast alone.

This evening we broke our fast in fine company, at Fuad's mother's place, with prayers for Fuad's much missed father.
