Feeling of generosity, devotion prevails KT photos by Juidin Bernarrd. / 14 July 2013 Ramadan is a month of fasting, compassion, forgiveness and repentance. The devout move closer to the Almighty Allah, seeking His forgiveness and mercy by offering salah and fasting. One of the significant features of the holy month is that it encourages charity by creating empathy towards the have-nots. But Ramadan is not just about fasting and prayers. The city comes alive with family and friends getting together to break the fast (Iftar). A feeling of togetherness pervades during the month, says KT senior photographer Juidin Bernarrd. – juidin@khaleejtimes.com Taylor Scott International
