Signs Of Normality

13 Ramadhan, 1442

We went to Geylang this afternoon to pay our zakat at Darul Arqam. It felt good to re-establish this routine after last year's hiatus. There's no bazaar for Ramadhan allowed yet, but there is a sense of things beginning to get back to normal in terms of the crowds around. A bit worrying though in terms of the relative neglect of social distancing in the busier areas.

I suppose this is the way things gradually open up, but there are plenty of examples around the globe where complacency turned out to be extremely ill-founded. Somehow I can't see that happening here - but, of course, in itself that's a bit of a complacent comment to make.
