Dubai Bank marks Ramadan with wide range of activities

One of the key activities is Dubai Bank's partnership with the Dubai Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing (DTCM), to serve as a sponsor of the 8th Ramadan Forum.

The Forum is a large annual event organised by the DTCM, featuring scholars and lecturers from Arab and Islamic countries.

It also has significant exhibitions, community-style Iftars and charity caravans that roam the streets of Dubai to distribute brochures and pamphlets in a range of languages outlining the values and beliefs of Islam.

Dubai Bank has also partnered with the Dar Al Bar Society, a leading Islamic charitable and educational organisation, to host Iftars for the local community, including underprivileged members of society.

Dubai Bank is also organising a unique Suhour at the Madinat Jumeriah for its Royal Banking clients, as a recongnition of their special contribution to the ongoing success of the bank

Recognising value is also the theme behind a series of special events organised by the bank for its staff during Ramadan. Along with gifts of the traditional box of dates, employees will also be invited to participate in a wide range of athletic and cultural events designed to foster community spirit, in line with the guiding principles of the Holy Month.

Mohamed Amiri, Head of Retail Banking at Dubai Bank, said:

"Throughout the year, and especially during the Holy Month of Ramadan, we make a special effort to give back to the community that we are so honoured to serve. By working closely with organisations like the DTCM and Dar Al Bar Society, we are privileged to be able to make a lasting contribution to the welfare of the community here in Dubai and across the UAE."

"At Dubai Bank, all our actions are guided by Shari'a, which means that all our staff conduct themselves with the highest level of transparency, integrity, fairness, respect and care in all aspects of our business," Amiri added.

"During Ramadan, Dubai Bank takes pride in sharing its success with our loyal customers, dedicated employees and society as a whole," said Asim Al Ali, Head of Human Resources at Dubai Bank. "Through our corporate social responsibility activities and internal events, the bank continues to demonstrate its commitment to the principles of Shari'a, and its overriding vision of giving back to the community."
