Rules and Regulations during Ramadan

ramadan

Ramadan is a time of holiness and high religious consciousness; it would be considerate for non-Muslims to adapt their lifestyle during the month as well. Here are some of the guidelines that we need to observe during this holy month of Ramadan.

*Companies are required by law to reduce working time by 2 hours per day for all employees, not only Muslims and/or those who are fasting. If employees work longer hours, they should receive overtime pay. Workers can file a complaint at the UAE Ministry of Labour if a company is not following this rule, or not paying overtime for employees who do work longer hours.

*It is illegal to eat, drink or smoke in public during daylight hours (including in your car). Urban legend has it that you end up in jail for the remainder of the month of Ramadan if caught, however it is more likely that you'll get a lecture from the police and possibly a fine. The law says a fine up to 2000 / 2500 dhs or up to 1 or 2 month jail sentence as far as we know.

*If you have hungry children, they are permitted to eat during the day but it would be sensible to be discreet about it. If you're desparate for food or drink for them, get a snack at a supermarket or service station, or possibly a restaurant/cafe even if they look closed (knock on the door - there might be someone in the back).
