Twitter has seen tremendous festivity, during the holy month of Ramadan and Eid al-Fitr, through interactions of Muslims and non-Muslims, including heads of state and celebrities.
Reports say that there were over 8.4 billion impressions of Tweets about Ramadan on Twitter throughout the holy month.
Since the beginning of the holy month, Twitter introduced three special hashtag icons for #Ramadan, #Iftar and #Eid al-Fitr. Users who include these hashtags in their tweets – in either Arabic or English – will see a crescent moon, a glass of water, or a piece of calligraphy (Eid Mubarak) appears alongside their message.
Twitter published an “interactive map’ showing the global conversation around Ramadan that took place on Twitter during the past month.
