Türkiye’s minority faith communities have beautiful memories of Ramadan, feeling the warmth of the Muslim holy month like their Muslim neighbours
Andon Parizyanos, the 73-year-old native of Istanbul, has vivid memories of Ramadan just like any ordinary Muslim. Balat, which was once a mixed neighbourhood
Parizyanos has other memories, too, particularly related to food. His most beautiful memory is about the Ramadan, a type of pita bread bakers bake across Türkiye, especially in the month of Ramadan. It's common to see people standing in long queues to buy hot“My grandmother used to send me to the local baker to buy a hot. After I brought it to the house, my grandmother would rub the natural Trabzon butter inside the hot,” Parizyanos explains.
As a result, the spirit of Ramadan inspires Jews like Levi to go for self-reflection, a psychological inquiry into their conduct, says the 65-year-old Jewish community leader. Levi also finds similarities between Ramadan fasting and Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, which is the holiest day of the year, according to Jews, who fast to observe the importance of the event. Yom Kippur happens in either September or October.
