As Ramadan ends, Moroccan men express gratitude to women through a traditional gift-giving practice.
As the holy month of Ramadan concludes, a long-standing tradition in Morocco comes to light wherein men express appreciation to the women in their lives for their contributions during this sacred period. Specifically, the custom known as the 'right of salt' involves men giving gifts, often jewelry, as a token of gratitude, especially for the hard work women undertake in preparing meals for iftar, the meal that breaks the fast. In Rabat's old city, men like Hassan El Fezouati are actively participating in this cultural practice, seeking meaningful gifts that symbolize their respect and acknowledgment of women's roles.
