The Islamic Ministry has stated that, like in previous years, many activities are planned for this year’s Ramadan as well. The Islamic Ministry said that two programs are scheduled to welcome this year’s Ramadan. These are a workshop called “Mindful Ramadan” and a large lecture titled “Welcome Ramadan”. The ministry said that the “Welcome Ramadan” lecture is scheduled to be held at the Male’ Artificial Beach.
In addition, during Ramadan, eight Ihya Forums are planned to be held in Male’, while it has been decided to conduct Ihya Forums in seven cities or islands this year. The ministry said that the locations for the Ihya Forums were determined after reviewing proposals submitted by councils requesting to host the event, and selecting the islands with the best proposals.
The ministry said that six Ihya Forums for school students have also been planned to increase religious awareness among students during Ramadan. Additionally, outreach programs are scheduled to be held in Male’ every Saturday during Ramadan, which will include sports activities that interest children, religious counseling, and stalls featuring Qurans and religious books.
Like in previous years, Asr lectures are scheduled to be held in the Male’ area after every Asr prayer during Ramadan, according to the ministry. Furthermore, the Islamic Studio of the Ministry of Islamic Affairs is preparing to broadcast religious programs through the ministry’s social media platforms to raise public awareness and provide religious information during this year’s Ramadan as well. This will include some programs from last year as well as completely new programs, they said.
