Ramadan is here once again. For many Muslims it’s time to make additional efforts in their worship. For slightly ‘rusty’ Muslims, however, it’s time to try and recall what being a Muslim is all about. If you’re one of the latter, don’t panic! Here is a useful action list to get you started.

Dear Diary:

Well you may think I’m weird talking to a paper but I’ve decided to do something different this Ramadan. My friend Fatima says that every Ramadan she aims to learn something new and gain a new experience. So I’m going to do the same and I will keep a diary to record the spectacular event of me learning something new! Exciting, isn’t it?!

Anyway, this first entry has to be short and sweet because I’m off with my family to our annual Ramadan picnic – that’s where we all get to stuff ourselves silly before fasting begins!! See you (don’t tell anyone that I’m keeping a diary – how embarrassing!).
