What the tale is about

During the blessed days of Ramadan, Ruhi learns that his father has prepared fitrah for every member of their family. Because he considers his beloved fish HımHım, living in a tiny aquarium, part of the family, Ruhi wants to give fitrah on the fish’s behalf. His father’s laughter briefly hurts him, but Ruhi learns that fitrah is not given for animals. Instead, he decides to save his allowance and give his own fitrah. Wearing the Ramadan drum his grandmother gave him, Ruhi cheerfully reminds everyone to give before the Eid prayer, filling the family with warm smiles. The story celebrates sharing and remembering people in need.
