    Hey, do you have any plans for the weekend?

    Not yet. I was thinking of just relaxing at home. What about you?

    I was planning to go hiking on Saturday. The weather looks perfect for it. Want to join?

    That sounds fun! Where are you going?

    There’s a great trail about an hour from here. It has amazing views.

    That sounds awesome! What time are you heading out?

    Probably around 8 AM so we can avoid the afternoon heat.

    Sounds good! I’ll bring some snacks.

    English conversation

    Excuse me, can you help me find the clothing section?

    Thank you. Also, do you have any discounts today?

    Yes, we have a 20% discount on all winter clothing.

    That’s great! I need a warm jacket. Can you recommend one?

    Of course. This one is very popular. It’s warm and lightweight.

    It looks nice. Do you have it in a smaller size?

    Let me check… Yes, we have it in small. Would you like to try it on?

    Yes, please. Where are the fitting rooms?

    Right over there, next to the mirrors.

    It fits well! I’ll take it. Where do I pay?

  • Talking about Ramadan

    Ramadan conversation

    Ramadan Mubarak! How is your fasting going?

    Ramadan Mubarak to you too! It’s going well, Alhamdulillah. 

    Yes, Allah gives us patience during Ramadan. What time is Iftar today?

    Around 6:45 PM. I’m looking forward to it! What are you planning to eat for Iftar?

    We’re making samosas, fruit chaat, and dates with milk. What about you?

    That sounds delicious! We’re keeping it simple—some soup, dates, and grilled chicken.

    That’s a good idea. Eating too much at Iftar can make you feel tired.

    Exactly! I also try to drink a lot of water before fasting starts.

    Me too! Are you going to the Masjid   for Taraweeh tonight?

    Yes, I love the peaceful atmosphere during Taraweeh prayers. It makes Ramadan feel so special.

    I agree. I also try to read more Quran and give charity during this month.

    Same here! Ramadan is the best time to improve ourselves and help others.

    Absolutely! May Allah accept our fasts and prayers.

    Ameen!
