Ramzan Mubarak. Lead with empathy and practice flexibility this month. Ramadan is the holiest of months for the Muslim community. People who are observing Ramadan (and fasting) typically wake up at dawn to prepare and have some food and start the fast (no food or liquids - yes, even water) until the fast ends at dusk. Here are some tips to support our Muslim colleagues at work: - accommodate requests for flexibility during this time (i.e., starting work early and leaving early) - schedule meetings in the morning/early afternoons (when energy levels may be higher) - avoid terms like “Lunch & Learn/Coffee chat” when scheduling meetings; try not to schedule training/meetings during lunch hours when lunch is expected (and provided), especially mandatory ones - if you have private wellness/quiet/prayer rooms, encourage those who are observing to use them - accommodate requests for time off during the last 10 days of Ramadan (these are considered the most sacred of the month) - not all Muslims fast during the whole month (for various reasons); if you see someone eating one day and fasting another, don't ask for an explanation - Muslims have diverse traditions and practices, not everyone practices the same way -the month concludes with the celebration of Eid. The Islamic calendar is lunar, and we won’t know the exact date of Eid (as it depends on the sighting of the new moon), so people may request time off at relatively short notice - please be aware of this and stay flexible. Send your Muslim colleague/friend/client your wishes by either saying “Ramadan Mubarak” or “Ramadan Kareem.” It’s shows you are seeing them and that you understand the significance of the month for them.

Eid ul-Fitr, the festival marking the end of Ramadan, holds profound significance beyond its religious context. It serves as a time for reflection, gratitude, and community. Beyond its religious significance, Eid ul-Fitr 🌙 fosters social cohesion by bringing people together, transcending differences of culture, nationality, and socioeconomic status. It promotes empathy and solidarity as individuals come together to share meals, exchange gifts, and extend acts of kindness to those in need. Moreover, it reinforces the values of discipline and self-restraint cultivated during the month of Ramadan, encouraging individuals to carry these virtues forward in their daily lives. #EidMubarak #Ramadan #CommunityUnity In extending blessings for professional growth and success in life, may this Eid bring you opportunities for advancement and achievement in your career endeavors. ✨ May your dedication and hard work be recognized, leading to greater accomplishments and fulfillment. ✨ May you continue to strive for excellence, leveraging your skills and talents to make meaningful contributions to your field and society at large.

🏛The purpose of Zakat is ultimately to increase faith and devotion to Allah. It also acts as a social safety net for those in need and a means to uplift the entire community and help Muslims and Islam thrive. Zakat is a pillar of Islam and as such it works together with the other four pillars as a way of upholding and strengthening the religion. By giving Zakat Muslims cleanse their own wealth. Zakat helps to keep the economy flowing by freeing people from burden and giving them the chance to reach their potential. Zakat, when it works properly, should have a long-term impact for the state of the whole Muslim community. 📲Learn Zakat- https://lnkd.in/gTcPYFWC 📲Zakat Calculator- https://lnkd.in/gC7WrJHz 📲Pay Zakat- https://lnkd.in/gSZpYaTT #zakat #zakatinaustralia #zakatpillar #zakateducation #muslimunity #muslimcommunity #nzf #nzfaus #nzfaustralia #changetomorrow
