EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by REUTERS photographer Ali Jarekji, we witness a poignant moment of devotion and spirituality. The image transports us to Al-Wehadat Palestinian refugees camp in Amman during the holy month of Ramadan in 2007. A young girl is seen deep in prayer, her eyes closed and hands raised towards the heavens. The timing of Ramadan holds great significance for Muslims worldwide, as they engage in fasting from dawn until dusk. This sacred period varies across different Muslim countries depending on the sighting of the new moon, which marks the commencement of this lunar calendar month. The atmosphere surrounding this scene is one filled with reverence and tranquility. The girl's serene expression reflects her unwavering faith and dedication to her religious beliefs amidst challenging circumstances within a refugee camp. Through this powerful photograph, Jarekji captures not only an individual's intimate connection with their faith but also sheds light on the resilience and strength exhibited by those living in difficult conditions. It serves as a reminder that even amid adversity, people find solace and hope through their spiritual practices. This image stands as a testament to both personal devotion and collective perseverance within communities facing hardship—a visual representation of how religion can provide comfort and guidance during trying times.
