Hassan and Aneesa are very excited. Ramadan is starting. Ramadan is a special month for Muslims.
“It is Ramadan!” says Daddy. “People have seen the Ramadan moon.” “Daddy and I will fast tomorrow,” says Mummy. “We will not eat or drink all day!”
Hassan and Aneesa are asleep. Aneesa hears a noise and wakes up. Plates are banging and water is bubbling in a kettle.
Aneesa gets out of bed and creeps downstairs. A kitchen light is on.
Mummy and Daddy are eating egg and toast. “Why are you eating breakfast at night?” asks Aneesa. Daddy laughs. “We are having sahur. It is the meal before you fast.”
