Ramadan Kareem :)

السلام عليكم و رحمة الله و بركاته (Peace and blessings of Allah with you)

I know it's the 10th of Ramadan already, but I thought I wanted to show you two of my favourite Ramadan-celebrating songs that I their used to listen to as a child. I love their music, their words, and somehow it's just the my soul gets really happy when I listen to them.

Before, I would like to present to you Ramadan if you don't know it..
You may have seen or known that Muslims fasting for almost the whole day, from food and drink (including water.) We do fast from dawn to sunset. Daily, in the 30 days of Ramadan.
Ramadan is one of the months of the Hijri Calendar, but it's not just a special month, it's like a boot camp for Muslims, when they encouraged and in fact supported to change their bad habits in that month; rewards of good behaviour are multiplied in this month. Bad behaviour may abort the fasting, so Muslims try to avoid it, initially during their fasting, then it's easy not to do it after Iftar (fasting breaking at sunset), and we're encouraged to keep the good habits further after Ramadan, and continue to stop the bad habits whether or not we're fasting.

So, the first song is "Ramadan This Year" and its first sentence is "Ramadan this year, changed all my habits"


The second one is the intro of a TV series "Bakkar" of a Nubian child called Bakkar. I love it!
