If you have neighbours who observe Ramadam, do they do this?

We have neigbours who do it every year

last night we had rice, a vegetarian and meat dish, pakoras, samosas and a platter of melon, grapes and strawberries

[Eddie.]

Nope because I’m not really close to my neighbours tbh...

I doubt that there is anyone observing Ramadan within about 15 miles of me

We had turkish neighbours and they would always come over with the most delicious food, but my stepdad is also muslim so we would return the favour.

Also when a new baby is born both the sikhs and muslims bring sweeties to the neigbours

Do they know any?

It's probably just them being scared of Muslims because the Media has made them into a scary figure.

To answer the question of the thread, no I've never done Ramadam or been apart of the process in anyway, my neighbours are Muslim, but I've just never spoken to them that much as me and strangers just don't match in real life.

[GoldHeart]

It's tradition for them to share food ,nice kind gesture really .

Sometimes when they've had weddings they might share food as well with friends & neighbors .

I swear most Muslims out there are actually nice and cause no harm, I have a lot of Muslim friends...

Yeah have they personally got to know any before?

i am the only one in my family who likes balkan countries, who likes muslims

[Lostie!]

My uncle and cousins sometimes do this with us for Eid, bringing round homemade rice and curry. Course nowadays I can't have any because they don't do vegetarian friendly but I used to love it

[Tom4784]

I work with a muslim who often brings in food for everyone at work when it comes to Eid. It's a lovely gesture and I do love the idea of Ramadam, It's such a nice well meaning holiday.

Do you? I really wouldn't fancy fasting all day, and then getting up at 4am to cook for 4 weeks

Unfortunately like all other holidays, it is beginning to suffer from commercialism with supermarkets devoting whole aisles to Ramadam Mubarak food items.

At Easter and Christmas I return the favour

I wouldn't do it since I love food but I love the focus on charity and doing good for others.

Sounds wonderful Cherie, i wish they were my neighbours but i also have no muslims in my road, i do have a Buddist bitch next door though, she only eats people ! (men)
