Mosques in many countries were closed and Muslims were restricted from sharing the communal meals or charitable activities that characterize the month. This year in Egypt, <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/50cd1944-c39a-4919-92fc-a65d8c133002\">mosques have been allowed to reopen<\/a>, though worshippers should wear masks and maintain social distancing measures, and taraweeh prayers should be limited to 30 minutes. Many have been looking forward to reclaiming this cherished ritual. \u201cIt\u2019s a whole other feeling, and the spirituality in Ramadan is like nothing else,\u201d 68-year-old Egyptian Magdy Hafez, who is accustomed to praying Taraweeh at the mosque, told the <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/muslims-restrictions-second-pandemic-ramadan-917f3fe7e876874d453c43b88709158d\">Associated Press<\/a>. In Saudi Arabia, worshipers are also allowed to perform the year-round umrah pilgrimage during Ramadan, provided they are vaccinated or recently recovered from covid-19.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And dining out is (partially) allowed:<\/strong> While cafes and restaurants were only open for takeaway last year, Cabinet has allowed establishments to remain open for most of the day to host limited Ramadan gatherings. Restaurants are now required to close their doors after 9pm, but are allowed to resume deliveries around the clock.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Though still no charity tables: <\/strong>Mawa\u2019ed Rahman and large indoor gatherings including funerals or celebrations are still banned.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Other Muslim-majority countries are also relaxing restrictions:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.arabnews.com\/node\/1841176\/saudi-arabia\">In Saudi Arabia<\/a> iftar gatherings are limited to 20 people this year, while in <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/muslims-mark-ramadan-coronavirus-surge-restrictions-7733c54e35054d573af6b29a7ccddc3b\">Indonesia<\/a> people are allowed to gather in restaurants, malls and cafes, which can open at 50% capacity. In Israel, 10k vaccinated Palestinians in the West Bank were allowed to pray in the Al Aqsa mosque at the start of the month<\/p>\n<p><strong>Though others are cracking down in fear of a third wave:<\/strong> Iraq has imposed a curfew from 7 pm to 5 pm, as well as a full lockdown on weekends, while Gaza has imposed a nighttime curfew to limit gatherings. In India, which is currently in the grip of a fierce third wave, authorities are appealing to citizens to avoid mass gatherings during Ramadan as the country faces a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/world-asia-56870410\">record surge<\/a> in covid-19 related deaths.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And some Ramadan traditions remain a casualty of the virus:<\/strong> In Saudi Arabia, the government has banned Iftar street banquets traditionally held to feed the poor, dubbed the \u201cTables of the Compassionate\u201d and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/world\/2021\/04\/13\/ramadan-2021-coronavirus-pandemic\/\">prevented mosques from serving free meals<\/a> during the month.
