Day -1

As every year, people are getting excited some day before Ramadan and the holy month is the in top of discussion topics. This month remains the opportunity for Tunisians to spent time with their families.

One of typical discussion which always happens before Ramadan begining is about crescent observation. It is a sort of irrational discussion and aspect of gap between modern and traditional point of views : should we observe moon crescent as done since 14 centuries or should we use astronomy ephemerides ? this show how muslims are still facing issue to success to live in modern life with respect to their religion beliefs and principles. It is amazing to see tthat 3 days difference between ramadan begining for many muslims countries.

But this discussion will end as usual when the official mufti will announce at night the 1sr day of Ramadan. and the main is that all Tunisian will enjoy and share the same pleasure during a whole month.
