Worshippers gathered in mosques across the UAE on Thursday, to welcome the first Ramadan after all Covid-19 restrictions were lifted.
The Moon-sighting committee declared Thursday the first day of the holy month.
Fathers and grandfathers came in with little children at dawn, offering the first of the five daily prayers.
Many recalled the days of social distancing and were relieved the rules introduced during the coronavirus pandemic were relegated to the past.
Mohamad Mahroof, a Dubai-based financial controller and partner of a restaurant group, said it was "so good to gather together with family and friends and pray".
“The mosque was crowded but there was still enough space for everyone," he said.
“The first day of Ramadan is always special.”
The 60-year-old returned home and recited the Quran, taking a short nap before heading to work.
“Young people find the first day of Ramadan difficult but at 60, I’m used to it,” he said.
For Fazeela Nizamudeen, the first day of the holy month was the start of a conversation with her children about spirituality.
The family woke up before 4am, prayed and shared a pre-dawn suhoor meal of rice, lentils, meat and fruit.
The older boys went to the mosque with their father, while Ms Nizamudeen stayed home to pray with her youngest son.
“They said the mosque was packed today. Even though they went 10 minutes early they prayed outside because there were so many people,” she said.
Ms Nizamudeen said she also explained to the children how special it was to observe Ramadan in the UAE.
“In Dubai and the UAE, we are lucky because so many people are fasting together during Ramadan. There is so much that supports the Islamic way of life,” she said.
Mohammed Shareef, a 36-year-old Egyptian man, told The National, that he usually performs morning prayers at home, but decided to go to the mosque to soak up the spirituality of the holy month.
“I felt more peaceful when I stepped inside the mosque in the morning with other worshippers. There were dozens of people with me and I felt it is great to pray with other Muslims,” said Mr Shareef.
He took his sleepy eight-year-old son with him to the mosque.
“I wanted him to experience the spiritual atmosphere just like when my father took me to the mosque at the same age. Ramadan is a special month for us and we want to pray in mosques rather than homes as it is more rewarding.”
They had their last meal at about 4.50am before walking to the nearby mosque in Sharjah’s Al Khan area.
“We had our Fajr prayer after 5am. The mosque was almost full and people were smiling and exchanging gestures for the beginning of Ramadan,” said Mr Shareef.
“It is a unique month for all Muslims as more people go to pray at mosques and read the Quran. The first day is hard with fasting but for me, it's the feeling of thirst.”
A time for loved ones
The holiest month on the Islamic calendar in Islam, Ramadan is observed by more than 1.9 billion Muslims around the world. It is said to be the month the Quran was revealed to Prophet Mohammed.
It is typically a time for reflection and spending time with loved ones.
Fasting during the holy month is one of the Five Pillars of Islam and is mandatory for all Muslims who are in good health.
Ramadan is also considered a nocturnal month for Muslims who end their daily fast at sunset, then begin longer-form taraweeh prayers, an additional extended evening prayer performed after isha.
Taraweeh prayers are then traditionally followed by social gatherings that last into the night.
This year, Muslims in the UAE will begin the month by fasting for about 14 hours and 45 minutes.
As the days lengthen, the fasting time increases. By the last day of the holy month the fast will be about 46 minutes longer than on the first.
On Wednesday, President Sheikh Mohamed called for “peace and harmony” for people in the UAE and around the globe, in an uplifting Ramadan message.
He wished for a “blessed month of reflection” on the eve of Ramadan.
“As the holy month of Ramadan begins, I wish you all a blessed month of reflection and pray that God continues to grant peace and harmony to the people of the UAE and the world,” Sheikh Mohamed wrote on Twitter.
Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, Vice President and Ruler of Dubai, also shared a Ramadan message on social media.
“All congratulations to the people of the Emirates and to all the Arab and Islamic peoples on the occasion of the blessed month of Ramadan,” he wrote on Twitter.
Earlier, the President had sent out Ramadan greetings to leaders across the Arab world.
Sheikh Mohamed offered congratulatory messages to the rulers and other leaders of Islamic nations, state news agency Wam reported.
He called for the continued good health and well-being of the leaders and their people and expressed his desire for further progress and prosperity for Arab and Islamic countries.
The President's sentiments were echoed by the Ruler of Dubai.

The British in India: Three Centuries of Ambition and Experience

The Facility’s Versatility
Between the start of the 2020 IPL on September 20, and the end of the Pakistan Super League this coming Thursday, the Zayed Cricket Stadium has had an unprecedented amount of traffic.
Never before has a ground in this country – or perhaps anywhere in the world – had such a volume of major-match cricket.
And yet scoring has remained high, and Abu Dhabi has seen some classic encounters in every format of the game.
October 18, IPL, Kolkata Knight Riders tied with Sunrisers Hyderabad
The two playoff-chasing sides put on 163 apiece, before Kolkata went on to win the Super Over
January 8, ODI, UAE beat Ireland by six wickets
A century by CP Rizwan underpinned one of UAE’s greatest ever wins, as they chased 270 to win with an over to spare
February 6, T10, Northern Warriors beat Delhi Bulls by eight wickets
The final of the T10 was chiefly memorable for a ferocious over of fast bowling from Fidel Edwards to Nicholas Pooran
March 14, Test, Afghanistan beat Zimbabwe by six wickets
Eleven wickets for Rashid Khan, 1,305 runs scored in five days, and a last session finish
June 17, PSL, Islamabad United beat Peshawar Zalmi by 15 runs
Usman Khawaja scored a hundred as Islamabad posted the highest score ever by a Pakistan team in T20 cricket

Tearful appearance
Chancellor Rachel Reeves set markets on edge as she appeared visibly distraught in parliament on Wednesday.
Legislative setbacks for the government have blown a new hole in the budgetary calculations at a time when the deficit is stubbornly large and the economy is struggling to grow.
She appeared with Keir Starmer on Thursday and the pair embraced, but he had failed to give her his backing as she cried a day earlier.
A spokesman said her upset demeanour was due to a personal matter.

What is blockchain?
Blockchain is a form of distributed ledger technology, a digital system in which data is recorded across multiple places at the same time. Unlike traditional databases, DLTs have no central administrator or centralised data storage. They are transparent because the data is visible and, because they are automatically replicated and impossible to be tampered with, they are secure.
The main difference between blockchain and other forms of DLT is the way data is stored as ‘blocks’ – new transactions are added to the existing ‘chain’ of past transactions, hence the name ‘blockchain’. It is impossible to delete or modify information on the chain due to the replication of blocks across various locations.
Blockchain is mostly associated with cryptocurrency Bitcoin. Due to the inability to tamper with transactions, advocates say this makes the currency more secure and safer than traditional systems. It is maintained by a network of people referred to as ‘miners’, who receive rewards for solving complex mathematical equations that enable transactions to go through.
However, one of the major problems that has come to light has been the presence of illicit material buried in the Bitcoin blockchain, linking it to the dark web.
Other blockchain platforms can offer things like smart contracts, which are automatically implemented when specific conditions from all interested parties are reached, cutting the time involved and the risk of mistakes. Another use could be storing medical records, as patients can be confident their information cannot be changed. The technology can also be used in supply chains, voting and has the potential to used for storing property records.
