Qataris well-known for preserving its long-standing traditions and practices, despite being a country filled with technology and world-class development. Anyone in Qatar can experience this unique blend of tradition and modernity. During Ramadan, these traditions come to life in every corner of the country. From Iftar cannons to Garangao, Qatar is rich in cultural heritage and traditions.

The Iftar Cannon, known as Madfa al Iftar, meaning "cannon for breaking the fast," is one of the main attractions during Ramadan in Qatar. This ancient tradition is believed to have originated in Egypt and has spread to many Arab countries. Each day during Ramadan, just before the Maghreb prayer, a cannon is fired to signal that it is time for Iftar. Qatar observes this tradition in various parts of the country, providing both residents and tourists with a unique glimpse into ancient customs.

Another Ramadan tradition is the 'Al Ghabqa' feast, a traditional Ramadan gathering held after the Taraweeh prayer, bringing family and friends together around a table. The feast includes various fish dishes, rice with date extract, and tharid, a mix of crumbled bread, meat, and broth. Sweets like Luqaimat and Aseeda, along with dates, tea, and coffee, are also included. In Qatar, Al Ghabqa has expanded to hotels and Ramadan tents, allowing organizations to invite employees and strengthen relationships.

The country is also celebrating Garangao, a key event for children that embodies a beloved tradition. During this festive occasion, kids roam the neighborhood, singing traditional songs and receiving treats from the elders. Typically celebrated on the 14th day of Ramadan, Garangao signifies a mid-month festivity where families come together and distribute Garangao bags filled with sweets and nuts to the children.

The Musher, or Ramadan drummers, is a cherished tradition that revives the ancient custom of waking people for Suhoor, the predawn meal. Each night from 10 PM to 11 PM, a group of five men, accompanied by two drummers, walks through the area, announcing the approach of Suhoor with drumbeats and rhythmic chants.
