Sungkai at 8:08 PM

Fasting month started on Thursday 13th September here. It was already decided a week ago by the Islamic Council. In Brunei moon sighting on Tuesday failed to see the new moon and hence fasting also started on Thursday. In fact, every where around the world, except for Libya, started on the same day.

Here, day hours are still long as we are still in late Summer to early Autumn period. It will get worse in the future years as Ramadan month moves forward 2 weeks every year. We wish everyone gain all the blessing and joy of Ramadan. This is the month to increase our amal and reminds ourself of the less fortunates. Ramadan Kareem!

This photo was when we had our sungkai at Beverwijk market.
