Ramadan Surprise: Kids Earn Eidiya Rewards for Attending Taraweeh Prayers

This Ramadan brought an unforgettable experience for brothers Omar, Ebrahim, and Abdullah as they joined their parents and cousins for nightly Taraweeh prayers. What made this year's spiritual journey even more memorable was an unexpected reward that added extra joy to their worship.

Hundreds of children across the city received special Dh500 Eidiya gifts after participating in a unique Ramadan Passport program. The initiative encouraged young worshippers to attend Taraweeh prayers by collecting stamps in their booklets throughout the holy month.

The Lowna brothers - five-year-old Omar, along with his siblings Abdullah (13) and Ebrahim (11) - turned prayer time into a cherished family tradition. Though they discovered the passport program mid-Ramadan, their dedication earned them five precious stamps before the initiative concluded.

"We mostly prayed at Shaikha Hind Masjid in Za'abeel 2," shared Abdullah enthusiastically. "But we also visited Grand Za'abeel Masjid and Al Twar Masjid to experience different congregations." For Qiyam prayers, the family specifically traveled to Masjid Majeed in Al Jaddaf to pray behind their favorite Imam, Abdullah Ubeidli.

The rewards extended beyond just monetary gifts - vouchers and ice cream treats after prayers became delightful bonuses that made late nights more exciting. Their father Sameer Lowna observed how this experience deepened both faith and family bonds: "Seeing my sons so committed warmed my heart. Sometimes cousins joined us too, making it a beautiful gathering."

ハローワークと求人サイトの使い分け方
ハローワークと求人サイトの使い分け方
仕事を探し始めたとき、多くの人が最初に迷うのが「ハローワークを使うべきか、求人サイトを使うべきか」という点です。実際には、どちらが優れているというよりも、目的によって向き・不向きが異なります。ハローワークの大きな特徴は、公的機関としての安心感です。地域密着型の求人が多く、雇用条件が比較的安定している傾向があります。また、職業相談や応募書類の書き方について直接相談できる点は、就職活動に不安がある人にとって大きなメリットです。一方で、求人サイトは情報量とスピード感が強みです。職種、勤務地、働き方などを細かく条件指定でき、複数の求人を短時間で比較できます。成長中の企業や新しい働き方に関する求人は、求人サイトの方が見つけやすい傾向があります。重要なのは、どちらか一方に依存しないことです。ハローワークで基礎的な情報や相談を行い、求人サイトで選択肢を広げる。この併用スタイルが、結果的にミスマッチを減らしやすくなります。仕事探しは情報戦です。媒体の特徴を理解した上で使い分けることが、納得のいく選択につながります。

インプラント治療の費用相場と内訳
インプラント治療の費用相場と内訳
インプラント治療を検討する際、多くの人が最初に気になるのが費用です。「1本数十万円と聞いて驚いた」「医院によって金額が違いすぎて不安」こうした声は決して珍しくありません。インプラント治療は基本的に保険適用外となるケースが多く、費用は医院ごとに設定されています。そのため、相場を知らないまま見積もりを見ると、高く感じてしまうことがあります。一般的に、インプラント1本あたりの費用は30万〜50万円前後が目安とされています。ただし、この金額は単に「人工歯を入れる費用」だけではありません。費用の内訳には、・事前検査(レントゲン・CT撮影)・インプラント体(人工歯根)・手術費用・アバットメント(連結部品)・上部構造(人工歯)などが含まれます。さらに、骨の量が足りない場合には、骨造成などの追加処置が必要になることもあり、その分費用が加算されます。こうした背景を理解すると、金額の違いにも一定の理由があることが見えてきます。大切なのは、総額だけでなく内訳を見ること。治療内容を正しく理解することで、不要な不安を減らすことにつながります。
