Honestly, I think the whole prayer for new month thing is a big deal for a lot of people, especially where my family is from in Nigeria. Every first day of the month, my aunties are sending these long messages with prayers for blessings, peace, and all that stuff. It’s not just a habit for them—it's about fresh starts. Everyone’s hoping the new month brings something better, especially with all the tough stuff going on, like money problems or just day-to-day stress. Sometimes, I kinda roll my eyes at the chain messages, but honestly, it feels good when someone thinks about you. I remember my mom looking forward to new month prayers from her cousins 'cause she said it made her feel seen and hopeful. So yeah, for a lot of people, it's way more than just a routine—they believe it can lift their spirits and even bring good vibes for the new month. And I guess it really brings people together on WhatsApp or whatever, which is pretty cool.
