Twitter Unveiled 3 New Hashtag-Triggered Emojis for Ramadan

Hia magazine debuted an original show about Muslims’ holy month on the social network

Twitter rolled out three new hashtag-triggered emojis for Ramadan—which began Sunday night and runs through June 4—as well as an original show for Muslims’ holy month.

Hashtags in seven languages—English, Arabic, Bahasa, Spanish, Turkish, Hindi and Bengali—will unlock a crescent moon, a glass of yoghurt (which is commonly used to break fast) and a lantern.

Hia magazine will also debut a Ramadan original show on the social network, sponsored by soft drink Vimto. The Arabic-language program will showcase Middle East personalities preparing different recipes for Ramadan.
