However, many of those whose mood changes as its arrival approaches and their morale changes between fearing a rise in… the pricesAnd among those who are anticipating the temperatures during this month, and other fears that have become the focus of their conversation.
In order to find out what is most important to the minds of Algerians and the nature of their mood a few days before the advent of the month of Ramadan, we patiently examined the opinions of a sample of citizens whose interests and aspirations varied, but most of them agreed that it is a month better than a thousand months.
The concern of rising prices is what most concerns everyone we spoke to, and the first thing they fear, especially since many commodities experience a significant increase at the beginning of the month of Ramadan every year, especially Meat prices The demand for it is high during this month. This is what was expressed to us by a large number of citizens who denounced the defect in prices that began to spark during these days. This is what Tawfiq, 54 years old, from the Didouche Mourad neighborhood in Algiers expressed, considering that the situation has become a habit among people. Merchants consider the arrival of the month of Ramadan an opportunity for them to make a quick profit, while Kulthum, 48 years old, expressed her deep concern about the wave of rising prices that usually strikes during the month, especially during the first days of the month of Ramadan, and here she mentioned to us what happened to her during the past month. When she was surprised by the high prices of meat, she added that this time she decided to buy meat Goods In advance and store it in the freezer, especially when it comes to meat, which makes it less stressful.
Ramadan, Eid, and the start of the school year, as well as the summer vacation, are a season for ravaging the budgets of limited-income families, as most low-income citizens expressed their deep dissatisfaction with their low standard of living, as this stage requires large amounts of liquidity spent from their financial income, in line with the usual social preparations. Which the citizen does every year during this period, to enter the blessed month of Ramadan, and the preparation it requires, as the month of fasting follows and turns into successive financial pressures, the citizen does not know where to start it, and how he will end it, such as Ahmed, 49 years old, father of four. Sons, an employee in a public institution, who admitted that his monthly salary is not enough.
His only concern during these days is thinking about how to provide the needs of the month of Ramadan, as well as the expenses of Eid, which coincides with the summer vacation, which inevitably forces him to borrow an amount of money in order to provide for the needs of his family, which he is responsible for supporting. Saeed, 51 years old, says that he is going through a difficult stage. Of ongoing financial obligations that ordinary citizens cannot get rid of.

While others admitted that the days of fasting affect their practical performance, especially since the month of Ramadan coincides with the days of heat and summer vacation, which prompted many to submit requests for annual vacation, in order to take advantage of the days of this holy month that they do not want to miss, in addition to seizing the most beautiful days with the family. This is what Hassan, 43 years old, an employee in a public institution, said: “I often prefer to take advantage of the month of Ramadan in worship and with the family, and I prefer that my annual vacation be during this holy month.” This opinion was also shared by Samiha, 47 years old, who believes that Ramadan is a month It is different from the rest of the months of the year, and she prefers to be free to fast and serve her family in the best conditions,” while Sumaya, 38 years old, a secretary, admitted that she cannot work during Ramadan, especially as it coincides with high temperatures, which has become a concern for her, especially since Working conditions during this year are not suitable for taking an annual vacation. On the other hand, some of those we spoke to believe that the Holy Month is the best month for work, because during it they feel the pleasure of working without feeling bored or bored. They are hardly engrossed in their work until the time for breaking the fast approaches, and this is What is happening with Hamid, 38 years old, who believes that it is impossible for him to remain without work during the month of Ramadan, and that staying at home without work increases his feeling of hunger and the length of time, which drives him to search for a place to fill his time by expanding his work as a merchant.
