Unique Ramadan Traditions From Across the World

They Make the Most of the Beach in the Maldives

You might think of the Maldives as a place with clear waters, golden sand bars, and water bungalows. But this country is more than just a luxury tourist destination. It is also home to devout Muslims who take Ramadan very seriously. It is a bonus that they get to spend this holy month in one of the most beautiful places in the world. In fact, one of the Ramadan traditions in the Maldives is to go to the beach at night to try to see the crescent moon in the sky.

Muslims in the Maldives eat a lot of fish and shellfish at Iftar because the country is in the midst of the ocean. This food is easy for them to get and everyone appears to adore it.
