This year again, God wants us to enter together, Muslims and Christians, into “this favorable time” (2 Corinthians 6,2) where God tells us “I am near in truth” (Quran 2,186); in this time when the revelation of the Holy Quran is commemorated (Quran 2.185) and where we remember the forty days spent by Jesus in the desert, where he was tempted before beginning his public life and his preaching (Mark 1.12-13). During these weeks, we will pray, fast and give alms together, according to our traditions, under the gaze of God “who sees in secret” (Matthew 6:4), “worshiping God as if we saw Him, (knowing that) if you do not see Him, He sees you” (Sahîh of Muslim).
