Ramadan in your culture

Prefer saying Ramzan as well…esp amongst us Desis. Rooh afza…oh gosh it’s cloying. Too sweet. We get the bottle of Mango squash that you mix water into. That’s sweet too, but not as much as rooh afza. It does no afzaai for my rooh much less my tastebuds.

Agree that maghrib…when breaking fast…time should be made for dua and not just rushing to stuff yourself.

High five for the melons. I love melons and I will go have me some watermelon now. It’s my fave fruit.

Watermelon is my favourite fruit too, but I generally like all kinds of melons (Galia, Cantaloupe, honeydew etc). We’ll be keeping 19/20 hrs. long fast and the only thing that’s making me look forward to Iftari is the watermelon platter, lol.

Rooh Afza is not sweet, I suppose it depends how much of it you put it your milk, but I generally like light baby pink colour and rosewater smell, lol (yes I do eat with my eyes) Not necessarily a huge fan of the taste, but it feels so like Ramzaan when you see it on Iftari table. But for drinking with for pleasure, I prefer almond shake or also known as sardai.
