Below is a link to an article from the Boston Globe and it contains pictures of people celebrating Ramadan around the world. Some of the pictures are absolutely amazing and it is worth a look because it helps to give an inside glimpse as to how they celebrate Ramadan....by praying on mosques, reading the Quran, breaking the fast with meals, and eating lots of sweets (like every holiday around the world:) ). The pictures are also from several different countries. However, I was disappointed in how they portrayed Egypt. There are several better situations than that one (pic #27)...even ones where there aren't standing next to Chinese made crafts. But I am also biased towards Egypt. I was also annoyed that they didn't included America,(I'm also biased towards America but not too much) because there are actually a lot of Muslims in America. I know it is harder to fast during Ramadan in American because all the restaurants are open and only a small minority of people fast versus a large majority in a Muslim country. It would have been interesting to compare the Ramadan pictures in America to other places in the world. They did include a picture from Germany, but it didn't really show people celebrating (in my option).

Nevertheless, the pictures are beautiful and worth seeing. And if you see a Muslims try to be respectful because this is a Holy month for them. There are a lot of different greetings...but an easy one to remember would be "Ramadan Kareem"
