‘It’s not the same’: French Muslims mark Ramadan under lockdown
AULNAY-SOUS-BOIS, France: For the second year in a row, Lalla Aicha Moujahid is marking the Muslim holy month of Ramadan under COVID-19 conditions — which means talking to her daughters via video call, instead of breaking the fast together in the same room.
“What we miss, what we really miss is the mosque, the prayers, the breaking of the fast and all that,” she said on Friday evening.
“It’s not the same.”
