You can rely on video call technology commonly used for video conferences and e-learning to contact your loved ones from afar.

During Ramadan, increasing worship activities is indeed a major recommendation. Unfortunately, staying at home means we can't go to the mosque for Tarawih prayers. However, that doesn't mean you can't seek rewards. Just maximize congregational worship with your family at home. From obligatory prayers, breaking the fast, and pre-dawn meal, to Tarawih prayers can be done together with the family. Besides being safe and comfortable, because you don't need to leave the house, your Ramadan this year will still be filled with blessings.

3. Redirect Mudik Funds to Help Others

It can be said that going back to the hometown is one of the activities, even traditions, that cannot be separated from Eid. However, for the common good, it is better to avoid going back this year, as advised by the government. Instead, you can save the funds to visit relatives when the situation is truly conducive.

In addition, you can still earn rewards by redirecting the mudik funds to help others. There are many ways you can try without having to interact directly with the person. For example, by participating in online donations, sharing iftar meals in front of the house complete with hand washing facilities for passersby, or ordering extra food to be distributed to drivers.

Whatever positive activities you want to try, never forget to ensure that your body stays hydrated while fasting at home. Don't think too much, just make sure with AQUA. This is because AQUA is mineral water taken from the best source that is pure and maintains its quality, so the purity of AQUA is truly safe and suitable for consumption as a companion during Ramadan fasting.

AQUA also protects the natural balance of the ecosystem of water sources, to preserve its richness and natural minerals, in order to protect the body, especially during fasting. According to Dr. Diana Sunardi, Chairperson of the Indonesia Hydration Working Group (IHWG), during fasting, the body needs a minimum intake of 2 liters of water every day during suhoor, iftar, meals, and before bed.

That's why hydration with AQUA is very important, because it can help regulate the body's metabolism during approximately 13 hours of fasting, including helping to distribute nutrients into body cells and eliminating unnecessary substances through urine. 

By drinking quality mineral water during iftar, according to Dr. Diana, water can be directly absorbed by the body in just 5 minutes. This is to ensure that the body's organs, especially the digestive system, work properly so that nutrients from the food consumed during iftar can be absorbed effectively.

Let's continue to spread the purity of Ramadan, together with the purity of AQUA.
