Ramadan Tips for Mums

Ramadan Tips For Mums

Ramadan, also known as the holy month, is a month of fasting, prayer, and charitable giving observed by Muslims all over the world. It is a yearly event that takes place within 30 days. Muslims typically fast from dawn to dusk, with Sahur eaten very early in the day, and Iftar eaten to break the fast in the evening. This time is also marked by charitable acts such as feeding the less fortunate, giving alms to the poor, and donating to charity.

Mom is the Chief Homemaker, and as such, a large portion of Ramadan preparation falls on her shoulders. We’ve compiled a few pointers to assist moms during this holy month.

  1. Plan ahead of time to shop for the family.

Moms should plan their meals and grocery shopping ahead of time to save time,money, and energy. This will also aid in scheduling and meal preparation. We have compiled a lot of cooking videos on our YouTube channel to inspire mouth-watering delicacies that are easy to prepare and very nourishing to keep the the family nourished from Sahur to Iftar.

 

2. Prepare the children for the holy month.

It is an unspoken goal to improve your faith and religion so that mothers can read the Quran and recite Duas with their children.

3. Choose a day to clean thoroughly.

Cleanliness and hygiene are important aspects of Islam, and cleaning ahead of time will help you make time for other responsibilities during Ramadan.

4. Delegate

To reduce their workload, mothers can delegate chores and duties to their children and even enlist the assistance of their husbands.

Finally, mothers bear a great deal of responsibility for preparing the home and family members for the holy month. We hope that these few tips will help you get started on a fulfilling Ramadan.

All that will be required is a purchase of Three Crowns product, scan the QR code and nominate a mum for all her efforts all through the year with nice words from her heart to receive a gift from Three Crowns milk.

      Women and their wants

      So I am in the salon, having my nails done, when Shola, my friend hits me up with this gist about a date she had with a guy. As usual she’s in front of the mirror for over an hour. What would he like? Red lips, perhaps a mini skirt or fitted gown, should she pack her hair? How much make up would he like? Etc.

      Anyways, after all the preparation, Shola ends up getting to the eatery where they planned to meet up, late. She enters the eatery, sees him and apologizes profusely. Initially, after the whole awkward silence of “you made me wait and all” my friend was expecting some nice comment like” you really look nice and all”, but the guy doesn’t say a word. Okay, no problem, maybe he is just not the expressive one…

      It turns out that our beloved guy is far from being unexpressive. My friend, after sometime calls a waiter to order French fries, when the guy says “Are you sure you want to order that? Shola says “Why not? And then he replies “Well, I don’t think you want that, considering your size”.
      At this point I can’t hide my laughter. Apart from the fact that shola we are talking about is UK size 10, I am like, are you trying to say she doesn’t know what she wants? Like seriously? So I tell Shola “Don’t mind him, he probably didn’t have money”.

      Let’s forget Shola’s guy for a moment. The truth is, a lot of times, other people, most especially men think they know what we want. Who would blame them? When women are asked what they really want, they stall.

      I, as a woman would not claim to know what another woman wants, being that our wants vary, just like no two women are the same. Nonetheless, we all have a common ground, something that’s general to every woman. It’s the foundation of all our wants, however long the list is -we want to feel good.

      We can’t feel good if we are not healthy. By healthy, I mean, good health and state of mind and this starts with consciously eating and living right.

      Yes we can indulge ourselves with a plate of chips once in a while, but it’s essential that we identify what we want at any given point and not let someone else dictate for us. If I was shola, I would say to the guy “I am living healthy, and indulging in a plate of chips today, won’t kill me”. That would be easy for me to say because I consciously stay healthy, knowing fully well that everything else that I want, love, money, a great career etc., depends on it.

      Don’t be surprised if you see me gulping down Three Crowns milk like no man’s business at work. I figured its low in cholesterol, great tasting and affordable too and as a brand, it helps me in consciously staying healthy. (It even has a 30 days quarterly fitness challenge programme, so I am like, no excuses right?) That being said, I will love our men to tender their opinions on this one.

      What do you think women really want? What do you think about Shola’s guy going all in her face? Do you think women really know what they want?  Drop your comments below and let’s have a healthy chat.
