Qasim Rashid, Esq.

Getting a lot of questions so to clean up confusion—here’s how to respond when someone wishes you “Ramadan Mubarak”:
•Ramadan Mubarak to you too!
•Ramadan Kareem!
•Khair Mubarak!
•Happy Ramadan!
•I will buy you tacos after Ramadan ends!

So if you were unsure how to reply, you’re welcome.😉 May you all have a blessed and happy month full of peace and service to all humanity. Amen. ❤️

@QasimRashid feeling a strong need to instigate the ramzaan vs ramadan debate here, like a South Asian invasive species.

Can I make the tacos instead? I'm not slouch in the kitchen and can easily even do halal if need be

@QasimRashid I didn't grow up in or near a Muslim community. So my knowledge was fairly nil.

Once I met some great Muslim friends online & got to know them over a period of years- I asked questions if I wasn't sure. I read up to understand the religion. I have great respect for my friends, so if people respect & care for others, speak openly to each other, & don't be afraid to ask questions. I also got a few great recipes from one of my friends that he eats after the sun sets during Ramadan.

@QasimRashid PS: I changed up the recipe just a bit & told him... his response-

That's my mom's recipe, you never change it Lisa.

Good laugh from both of us, tho he was serious.

@QasimRashid Thank you for this.

Also I'm happy to know that it wasn't just people being polite, and that 'Happy Ramadan' is in fact, perfectly acceptable.
