"Family cohesion isn’t just during Ramadan...

We all sit together at one table—the grandfather, the father, the mother, the children, the grandchildren, the in-laws—all enjoying each other’s company...

It’s a scene like a painted masterpiece...

God, how beautiful is the gathering of family during Ramadan!

Thirty days together,

in the same place, with the same faces.

But as soon as Ramadan ends, strange habits creep into some families...

Some are out from morning till night, some go to their chalets and return after a week, some demand diet food and refuse to sit with their family fearing it will ruin their diet, some are just not in the mood, and some are always with their friends... and so on.

I wish every day of the year could be like Ramadan, where families come together...

Family is a beautiful entity in every detail... a word from me, a laugh from me, a comment from me—it’s all beautiful...

I beg you, if you have a family where all its members are present, don’t distance yourself from them, no matter the circumstances. No, your family is your kingdom, your entity. Don’t drift away from them. Take care of them, because you won’t find another like them. Take care of each other...
