AL-AHSA: Communities in the eastern Saudi region of Al-Ahsa have been reviving age-old traditions as part of their celebration of Ramadan.

Customs passed down through generations, such as grand family meals, games nights, communal swims, and neighborhood festivals, are all being enjoyed by thousands of Muslims in towns and villages across the region during the holy month of fasting.

Qarsh night, also known as Quraish, is held on the night before Ramadan starts, with families gathering for a big meal of special dishes, many unique to Al-Ahsa.
