Ramadan Kareem: Rekindling the Community Spirit

Ramadan Kareem to all our friends who are beginning to mould into the Ramadan spirit!

We are excited to welcome Ramadan this year in person after two years of lockdown, and hope to share the experience with all our volunteers and friends!

The word “Ramadan” is familiar to a lot of our friends and volunteers as the name of the month in which Muslims fast from sunrise to sunset as a form of worship; the term “Kareem” has a literal meaning of “generous”, so in wishing one another a “Ramadan Kareem” Muslims are wishing for a month of generosity, both in increased closeness to God and also to one another.

Sharing this spirit of increased connectedness as diverse communities is important for us at the Dialogue Society, and our upcoming Ramadan journey under the theme of “Rekindling the Community Spirit” represents this.

We are excited to share with you our projects for the upcoming month and look forward to seeing you at an event!

1) Community Iftar Dinners

This year we will be hosting more than 30 community iftars throughout the UK. Our community iftars are open to all of those in the community, whether Muslim or not; it is an opportunity for us to re-connect and dialogue around this year's theme.

Please do get in contact with us through info@dialoguesociety.org if you would like to attend.

IftarMe: Experience an iftar with a Muslim family

IftarMe is an opportunity to bring dialogue into our own homes! You can sign up to visit a Muslim family for an Iftar experience.

Ramadan Journal

Aimed at a wide readership, we’re happy to share that issues of our Ramadan Journal will be released weekly throughout Ramadan! Again, grateful to have contributions from a diverse cultural and faith authorship we hope you enjoy our publications.

We wish a blessed Ramadan to all those celebrating and hope we can share these experiences with our diverse community throughout the UK.

With kind regards,
