Day of Dubai
Many UAE residents were caught off guard when Ramadan was confirmed to start on Wednesday, prompting a last-minute rush to supermarkets late Tuesday night. Shoppers flooded aisles in Dubai and Sharjah, with hour-long queues and heavy traffic around malls as families stocked up on essentials like rice, oil, milk, fruits, and dates. While some, like Ahmed at Carrefour, described the scene as “hurried but uncertain,” others such as Rukhsana Parveen said they preferred buying only for a few days to avoid overstocking. For residents like Mohammed Abu Nael, the rush meant spending nearly an hour in billing lines—proof of how quickly the festive spirit turned into a community-wide scramble to prepare for the holy month.
