Memories From Past Ramadans

- Time of tasahour, me and my brother are eating

Me: When is the adhan?
Bro: We've got plenty of time.
Me: What's that sound?
Bro: I don't know.
Me: Well shut up then!
Sound: Haya 3ala il-salaah!
Me & Bro: [Choke choke, spit spit]

- Just before ifaar, all the family is waiting

Everyone: [Dying]
Adhan: Allah uakbaar ul-Allah akbaar!
Mum: [Saying du3aa2] Alahuma-
Me: [Glug glug]
Everyone: Hey, Khaled, you're supposed to say the du3aa2 before you drink!
Me: Oh, sorry.
