As we all know we are in Ramadan. I know the date varies from country to country, but not too much. Tonight we had dinner with some Muslim friends who have invited us and always enjoyed with them, as we enjoyed the celebrations of many other friends who have other religions.
I'm an atheist, so, although I go when they invite me, I don't participate in the paraphernalia related to religion, but yes, I recognize that the anthropologist I have inside enjoys a lot of participation, even if at a distance, from the different celebrations that, after all, are always the celebration of family, friends and everything that surrounds it.
Tonight, we've already been warned, will begin with the vision of a commercial of a Kuwaiti company called Zain Telecom. I didn't want to comment much on the phone with the person who told me, but the intrigue has been strong enough to I try to find out what the commercial was about...
... I'm not going to say that I shares what the commercial says from the religious point of view, but I will say that it seems to me very brave and, I know, something that the vast majority of Muslims can do own.
To us may seem a small gesture, almost imperceptible, but, I know, for them is something impressive, and I say, so much so that dinner tonight will start with this commercial and not only in the home of these friends, it seems that it's getting pretty viral.
What do you think about it?
