Twitter brings back custom emoji for Ramadan

Twitter has announced three hashflags – its term for custom emoji that show up in most of its apps and on the Web – to celebrate Ramadan.

The three custom emoji show up when you use the appropriate hashtag in either Arabic or English.

Twitter did the same thing last year but has expanded the options this time around.
