From the beginning of Shaaban, the Comorians restore, paint and decorate mosques, replace old lamps with new ones, and Families prepare themselves in stock of grocery and provisions. People organize weddings during Shaaban, so that new couples can initiate, bless each other during the holy month, and notables come together to settle any conflicts (personal or family, or even social).

They organize large banquets in front of mosques and invite the poor to eat with them. Each family gathers its members together and constituting as one family, the members of the family have lunch together at the same table in Iftar. Also the opportunity to talk about how the day went and prepare for the next.

3. Ramadan donations:

The month of Ramadan is the month in which those who feel able (the Rich) to help others (the Poor) do so. It is also an opportunity to help each other between families by making special gifts. An economy and a moment of blessing that each prioritizes the other, Zakat Il-Ftr is well respected and families do their best to reserve even what they have.

4. Ramadan table:

The table during Ramadan in the Comoros is almost full. You can find Tea, Soup with grilled rice and meat, Grill, Fries and many more, but not Rice during Iftar. Pieces of bread in a vegetable or meat broth. Various dishes consisting of potatoes, sambousa, meat and fish. With that, the Ramadan table is never empty. There is a more important meal, it is the Sohor (the meal of the dawn) because we can neglect the Iftar a little but never the Sohor.

We say Farewell by melodies in the middle of radio and television and by the celebration of Aid El-Fitre. A day in which Children, Adults and Elders put on their new clothes and go to the Mosque for the celebration of Eid El-Fitre. Remarkable that each child receives new clothes from his parents or from the family. That same day, many festivities are organized throughout the country to mark the end of Ramadan and to thank Allah for giving us the chance to welcome Ramadan.
