Ramadhan Mubarak, everyone.

Tonight was Ramadhan Eve. We had our first Tarawikh prayers of the year, during a semi-quarantine pandemic-based lockdown.

Ramadhan usually brings joy, but with the outbreak everyone feels fear and uncertainty. The authorities have suspended congregational prayers at the masjid to prevent spread of the Covid-19 disease. This suspension also covers Friday and Tarawikh prayers.

Some places in the world do feel a disquieting woe and sadness as thousands die of the plague. What will the future bring to us all?
