CHRISTIANITY: EASTER

Corinthians 15:3-8: “For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance. Or you at the first: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, and that he appeared to Cephas.”

Easter is the time when Christians Globally celebrate the RESURRECTION of JESUS CHRIST. According to the Bible, Christ died on a cross on a day called GOOD FRIDAY, was buried for three days and the Bible says, Jesus was then resurrected and came back to life on EASTER SUNDAY.

Christian tradition holds that the sins of humanity were paid for by the death of Jesus and that his Resurrection represents the anticipation believers can have in their own resurrection.

ISLAM: RAMADAN

The FIVE Pillars of Islam are, Shahada: FAITH; Salat: PRAYER; Zakat: CHARITY; Sawm; FASTING; and Hajj: PILGRIMAGE to MECCA, Saudi Arabia.

RAMADAN started on March 11, 2024, to April 9, 2024, depending on the appearance of the crescent moon. It is the ninth and holiest month of the Islamic, Hijri calendar. It is also believed to be the month the Quran was revealed to the Prophet Mohammed (PBUH). The QURAN actively encourages its followers to live in peace with those of other faiths. Similarly, the HADITH, a collection of sayings attributed to the Prophet Muhammad, (PBUH), calls for love and understanding towards other religions. ISLAM IS A WAY OF LIFE. Found from my 4 years Tenure, that they are 3 Keys in Islamic culture, Relationships, Patience (Sabr) and Respect which takes many years to earn, cultivate and bear fruits.

Ramadan Customs, is traditional for Muslims to break their fast for their Suhoor (predawn meal) , Iftar (meal after sunset during Ramadan) and Eid ul-Fitr (end of Ramadan) celebrations by eating dates. This is a custom that goes back to the very first observance of Ramadan, as it is said that the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) ate dates before he broke his fast. Though it is a custom, it is not a requirement, but this is the practice in the 57 OIC and IsDB Countries.

INDIA: HOLI CELEBRATIONS

Holi is celebrated at the end of winter and the beginning of spring, on the last full moon day of the Hindu luni-solar calendar month of Falgun. The date of the şenlik varies depending on the lunar cycle. Typically, it falls in March, and will be celebrated this year on March 25.

In many parts of India, people light large bonfires the night before the şenlik to signify the destruction of evil and victory of good.

On the day of Holi, entire streets and towns are filled with people who throw colored powder in the air. Some throw balloons filled with colored water from rooftops and others use squirt guns. For one day, it is all fair game. Cries of “Holi Hai!” which means “It is Holi!” can be heard on the streets. Holi has also been romanticized and popularized over the decades in BOLLYWOOD films.

The colors seen during the Holi symbolize different things. BLUE represents the color of Lord Krishna’s skin while green symbolizes spring and rebirth. RED symbolizes marriage or fertility while both RED and YELLOW — commonly used in ritual and ceremony — symbolize auspiciousness.

Assuring You of my Highest Consideration

Sincerely
