Life by Ruman Baig 5 mins ago As the crescent moon of Ramadan was sighted in Saudi Arabia yesterday, marking the beginning of the holy month, the UAE follows suit in observing the start of Ramadan on Monday, March 11, 2024. This announcement by the UAE’s Moon-sighting Committee signifies the end of Sha’ban, with preparations underway for a month of fasting, reflection, and spiritual rejuvenation. Ramadan, a significant period in the Islamic calendar, varies each year as it aligns with the lunar cycle. This variability underscores the importance of moon sighting in determining the start and end of Ramadan, reflecting the essence of Islamic tradition and spirituality. In anticipation of Ramadan, both public and private sectors in the UAE have announced adjusted working hours to accommodate the spiritual practices and cultural significance of the holy month. The Federal Authority for Government Human Resources (FAHR) has issued a circular outlining the official working hours for federal government employees. During Ramadan, working hours will be from 9 am to 2:30 pm from Mondays to Thursdays, with a shorter workday ending at 12 pm on Fridays. Similarly, the Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation (MoHRE) has announced reduced working hours for employees in the private sector. Employees across various industries can expect a reduction of two working hours per day throughout Ramadan, allowing for greater flexibility and accommodation during this sacred time. These adjustments in working hours reflect the UAE’s commitment to honoring religious traditions while ensuring the well-being and productivity of its workforce. By providing conducive environments for both spiritual observance and professional responsibilities, the UAE underscores its dedication to fostering a harmonious society that values religious diversity and cultural inclusivity. As Ramadan commences in the UAE, communities come together to observe fasting from dawn to sunset, engage in acts of charity, and deepen their spiritual connections through prayers and reflections. It’s a time marked by solidarity, compassion, and communal gatherings, as families and friends unite to share meals and celebrate the blessings of the holy month. In the spirit of Ramadan, may this month bring peace, blessings, and prosperity to all residents of the UAE, and may it serve as a time of spiritual growth and enlightenment for individuals across the globe. – For more on luxury lifestyle, news, fashion and beauty follow Emirates Woman on Facebook and Instagram Images: Featured Image: Instagram: @visitabudhabi More
