As the holy month of Ramadan draws near, the narrow alleys and historic streets of Fez are buzzing with commercial activity, with a growing demand for traditional Moroccan attire in preparation for this spiritual occasion.
During a field visit, Fes News observed a significant influx of residents into the city’s traditional markets, where shops selling djellabas and the iconic Fassi “balgha” slippers are experiencing a remarkable surge in customers. Several merchants confirmed that this increasing demand stems from the deep-rooted custom among Fassi families to dress elegantly during Ramadan, as both parents and children take pride in acquiring traditional outfits that reflect Morocco’s rich cultural heritage.
Shops offering various types of djellabas, including Melifa, Shaara, and Sousdi fabrics, are seeing a significant boost in sales, along with a rising interest in Fassi “cherbil” slippers, a cherished element of the city’s ancestral craftsmanship passed down through generations.
These preparations extend beyond clothing; they embody the strong connection between Fez’s residents and their deep-rooted traditions. Each year, the people of Fez renew their commitment to these customs, as purchasing traditional garments remains an essential ritual that adds an authentic cultural touch to the Ramadan spirit, blending heritage with artistic craftsmanship.
Amidst this commercial revival, Fez’s ancient medina comes alive, reflecting the authentic Moroccan legacy and the timeless traditions that generations have preserved. Ramadan in Fez thus remains a unique occasion infused with history, heritage, and spiritual significance.
