Ramadan 2024: Ramadan is approaching and we can’t wait for the spiritual month to begin. Ramadan, also known as Ramzan, is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar and is considered one of the most auspicious times of the year. This month is celebrated by Muslim communities around the world for reflection, charity, peace and community. In Saudi Arabia, the beginning of Ramadan is determined by the sighting of the crescent moon, and the end of the month is also determined by the sighting of the moon. Based on the sightings, it will be decided whether to observe the 29 days of Ramadan or observe the moon. 30 days.
During Ramadan, we recommend that you focus on purifying your mind and thoughts and decluttering your life. One of the best ways to calm your mind and find peace is to engage in a digital detox. When social media continually bombards us with information, we can become overwhelmed and even less focused on observing Ramadan. This auspicious month can also be a way to clear our minds by practicing a digital detox. Below are some methods.

Finding the balance between technology and spirituality:
Push Notification: It can be hard not to look at your phone at a moment’s notice because apps are constantly sending you notifications. By turning off push notifications from apps that don’t urgently require our attention, we can focus our energy on practicing spirituality, self-reflection, and community service.
One device at a time: Using multiple devices throughout the day can feel overwhelming. The best way is to practice using one device at a time and avoid bombarding your head with too much information from too many devices.
airplane mode: Sometimes we have to draw a line. When you’re not working, you can turn on airplane mode on your phone and try to stay connected all the time. We can use this time to spend time with our families and deepen our spirituality.
the purpose: Mindlessly scrolling through social media can become addictive and waste your time. We need to work on the screen purposefully in time and we also need to allocate a certain amount of time for this.
