Ramadan Around the World with the Muslims of Instagram

It is during Ramadan when we may best notice how seamlessly the veins of our life come together. Work, chores, food, shopping, being with family, serving others, increasing worship – there truly is no separation between deen and dunya.

What does Ramadan look like for you?

Here are some of our favorite images shared on Instagram by Muslims around the world observing the holy month in their own unique ways.

Zahra Shikara shares with Nigel Downes how food is her service of love during Ramadan.

30 holy days, Day 4 – “Zahra Shikara” . During our research into Ramadan Zahra’s articulate explanation of her personal Ramadan journey gave us the inspiration to make this project more about people . Born in Edinburgh to Iraqi parents, Zahra has lived in Doha for 13 years, she finds time to be a holistic health and wellness coach a motivational speaker and a social Media Influencer. She's also a martial art expert so don't disagree with her opinions. If all of the above isn't impressive enough, she bakes healthy organic confectionary, and so we went to see her bake. In her words: Ramadan is a time for self-reflection which is best done in silence and in service. Cooking can be a meditative experience as you focus on combining ingredients, flavours and textures to please those breaking fast. Personally, I eat in homes at Ramadan. I avoid commercial mass-produced foods, preferring friends, family and my own creations! I love experiencing how different families break their fast and I treasure the energy and love that goes into cooking.  A staple dessert in my home is the delectable baqlawa, layers of filo pastry lightly brushed with melted butter, filled with brown sugar, rose water and crushed pistachios. Then drenched in sweet rose-flavoured syrup and sprinkled with rose petals – you won't find anything like it in the shops – it's fresh, crisp, light, nutty and chocolaty yet not overly sweet. One of the best things about home-cooking in Ramadan is sharing my meals with workers. They enjoy quality wholesome home-cooked food as most of them are away from their families and their big smiles light up my day each and every time. @zahra.says #love #instagood #photooftheday #beautiful #ramadanmubarak #ramadan #ramadankareem #ramadandoha #islam #lonelyplanet #qatartourism #documentary  #reportage #one_shot_ #streetlife_award #lensculture #photojournalism #amazing #ic_humans #portrait #people #ig_shotz #ig_portraits #magnumphotos #getty #streetphotography #candid #igportrait #qatar
