So my Sister in Law moved to Canada in November from Morocco. My brother (who is also Muslim) and her have been married about a year and a half. They currently live in my parents basement. I live in the same house. Myself and my parents are not Muslim but we are very accepting of anyone who chooses to be.

A few weeks ago, my Sister in Law announced to us she was pregnant. We are all very excited. However, in these last few weeks she has barely left her room. Her morning (more like all day) sickness is at an all time high. She’s exhausted all day and has been throwing up. She’s also very lonely as she hasn’t been able to make any new friends due to Covid, and I know she was looking forward to Ramadan to finally meet other muslims. This is obviously not going to be happening. She misses her family dearly right now, and I know it’s going to get worse when Ramadan comes, as it’s supposed to be a time of celebrations with family and friends. My brother can only do much. He’s been incredible with her but at the end of the day, he’s not her mom, dad or girl friend to confide in.

So clearly, Ramadan is going to look VERY different for her this year. Being in a non Muslim country, without family or friends, during a pandemic, and to top it off, being pregnant. She’s also only 21, so I can imagine she’s pretty scared. What are some things my parents and I can do for her during Ramadan to make her feel just a little bit more at home?
