Culture & Traditions



Religion:
Sunni Islam is the religion of Morocco.
Christians and Jewish represent only 1.1% and 0.2% of the population.

Society & Conduct:
Morocco is more relaxed than many muslim countries and therefore it is possible to wear clothing that exposes arms and legs in coastal resorts. However to minimize hassle, women are advised to cover themselves at social occasions and visits in traditional rural areas.

Moroccans are inordinately friendly and hospitable, so try saying ssalamu 'aleykum (peace be upon you) and insh'allah.

Coversation:
Moroccans love to talk. For the men, particularly, conversation forms a major part of life and hours are spent everyday arguing about current issues over a coffee in the towns' abundant cafés.

O my Luve's like a red, red rose
That's newly sprung in June,
O my Luve's like the melody
That's sweetly played in tune.

Bright star, would I were steadfast as thou art

Not in lone splendor hung aloft the night,
And watching, with eternal lids apart,
Like nature's patient sleepless eremite,
The moving waters at their priest like task
Of pure ablution round earth's human shores,
Or gazing on the new soft-fallen mask
Of snow upon the mountains and the moors;
No yet still steadfast, still unchangeable,
Pillow'd upon my fair love's ripening breast,
To feel for ever its soft fall and swell,
Awake forever in a sweet unrest,
Still, still to hear her tender-taken breath,
And so live ever or else swoon to death.

Their seething passion agitated space,
Till lo! The lands a sudden earthquake shook,
The river fled: the meadow leaped, and took
The leaning mountain in a close embrace.

A mighty river rolled between them there.
What could the mountain do but gaze and burn?
What could the meadow do but look and yearn,
And gem its bosom to conceal despair?

My love, I have tried with all my being
to grasp a form comparable to thine own,
but nothing seems worthy;

I know now why Shakespeare could not
compare his love to a summer’s day.
It would be a crime to denounce the beauty
of such a creature as thee,
to simply cast away the precision
God had placed in forging you.

Each facet of your being
whether it physical or spiritual
is an ensnarement
from which there is no release.
But I do not wish release.
I wish to stay entrapped forever.
With you for all eternity.
Our hearts, always as one.

A special world for you and me
A special bond one cannot see
It wraps us up in its cocoon
And holds us fiercely in its womb.

Its fingers spread like fine spun gold
Gently nestling us to the fold
Like silken thread it holds us fast
Bonds like this are meant to last.

And though at times a thread may break
A new one forms in its wake
To bind us closer and keep us strong
In a special world, where we belong.
