Are we CONVERTING to ISLAM? RAMADAN (Jeddah, Saudi Arabia)

In this video of Living the Jo Life, we will be participating in Ramadan in Saudi Arabia. After getting up at 4:30am for suhoor, we perform wudu and attend the Fajr prayer. After a snooze, we got ready for the Juma prayer in the beautiful Grand Mosque in KAUST. We arrived early to meet up with a friend and to read the Quran before the prayer. In the afternoon we played games and watched Netflix, before heading into Jeddah. As it was time for the Asr prayer on the way into Jeddah, we stopped along the road to perform the prayer. A rather dusty experience. Then, we headed to Jeddah’s newest shopping mall, U Walk. While the mall was nice and air-conditioned, many of the shops are still yet to open. We broke our 13-hour fast outside a nearby mosque with some dates and water before attending the Maghrib prayer. Across from U Walk, we went to Nando’s for a delicious Iftar. After Iftar, we went into Al Balad (Historic Jeddah) to experience the Ramadan atmosphere. Al Balad certainly didn’t disappoint. It was very busy with people and beautifully decorated with fairy lights and lots of stalls. We got to meet and chat to a lot of locals, and hang out at some of the cozy cafes. We also reflect on our Ramadan experience from last year and answer one of the most frequent questions from our Ramadan YouTube video from last year: Are we becoming Muslims?

I was raised in a Hindu family from a Christian mother and father. But after I converted to Islam, I got guidance from Allah. When my grandparents went on pilgrimage to Mecca, Saudi Arabia for a whole month, I decided to convert to Islam at the age of 9, but my mother was disappointed. but I persisted with my choice even though my mother didn't like Assalamualaikum to my Muslim friends and brothers from all over the world, peace and love, I am Teenager a Muslim from Bali, Indonesia Ramadan Mubararak Everyone 2024

I am so impressed with how much knowledge you guys have about Islam and Islamic practices. The way you wake up for suhoor and perform wudu, pray and fast shows real love for Islam and respect to Muslims. I pray that Allah guide you to Islam and bless you with goodness in this life and the next.

I love your videos, especially the videos that are filmed in my country, Saudi Arabia. Thank you with all my heart. you made me smile. I respect your family so much and how open you are to our religion and our country. I respect that you were introduced to the beautiful religion of Islam which we learn, love and appreciate so much. I respect that you learned the Islamic religion the right way. I ignored the false stereotype painted by the media. I respect that you want to spread Islam as it is, spread its beauty, and open people's eyes to the truth and beauty of the Islamic religion. This is your country, and we are your second family. You made me happy. Thank you again, and welcome everyone

Hi there, I’d like to take the opportunity to thank you. I very much enjoyed your video in Jeddah. It was very eye opening on Saudi culture. I am a Muslim living in London but I never had the chance to visit Saudi Arabia. I appreciate how genuine and honest of a family you are. I agree with what you said about conversion. As long as people like you exist there is hope for mankind. May God bless you.🥰
