So I read this super interesting article on Cairo Gossip about how to celebrate your birthday during Ramadan. It gave some great ideas for how to make the most of the occasion even though the fasting can make it a bit tricky.
One of the main tips was to plan ahead and have a pre-dawn meal with your loved ones before the fast begins. That way, you can still enjoy some birthday cake and festivities before the sun comes up. Another idea was to donate to charity or do some kind of good deed on your birthday, since this is a time of giving and compassion.
Personally, I always find celebrating during Ramadan to be a bit challenging but also really special. It’s a time when everyone comes together to focus on spirituality and generosity, and it can actually make the celebration even more meaningful.
Overall, I think this article is a great resource for anyone who has a birthday during Ramadan or is just interested in learning more about how the holiday is celebrated in Egypt. It’s a reminder that even during times of fasting and spiritual reflection, it’s important to make time for celebration and joy.
