Doha, Qatar: With spirituality and self-reflection underlined as Ramadan progresses, students in Qatar find themselves at the intersection of faith and education.

This month offers both unique challenges and enriching experiences for international students studying in Qatar.

What Ramadan means

Qatar University (QU) student enrolled in the Arabic Program, Aicha tells The Peninsula how Ramadan for her is a journey filled with contemplation and introspection. In her own words: “For the first time, spiritual nourishment becomes a form of sustenance for the body.”

She adds, “As I learn, I feel my soul being fed and growing in parallel with my mind.”
