A common practice among the 300,000-strong Muslim community in Hong Kong come Ramadan would be to gather at the mosques.
The four large mosques in the island city – Kowloon Masjid, Masjid Al Ammar, Jamie Mosque and Chai Wan Mosque – would be abuzz with congregants breaking fast and praying together.
But the Ramadan scene in Hong Kong (and other parts of the world, for that matter) has been affected by the Covid-19 pandemic.
Hong Kong chief imam Muhammad Arshad said Ramadan last year and this time around have been “totally different from the previous years”.
