And who celebrates it? Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, and it is an important time for Muslims around the world. During Ramadan, Muslims observe a month-long fast, which is one of the Five Pillars of Islam. The fast involves abstaining from food, drink, and other physical needs from dawn until sunset. Muslims wake up early before sunrise to eat a pre-dawn meal called suhoor, and then break their fast at sunset with a meal called iftar. Ramadan is also a time for increased prayer, reading of the Quran, and charitable acts. Muslims believe that during Ramadan, the gates of heaven are open, and the gates of hell are closed, making it an especially auspicious time for spiritual reflection and growth. Muslims feel a mix of emotions during Ramadan. On one hand, it can be challenging to fast from food and drink during the day, especially during hot weather or physically demanding activities. However, many Muslims also feel a sense of spiritual fulfillment and closeness to God during this time. Ramadan is seen as an opportunity to cleanse the body and mind, and to focus on prayer, charity, and other good deeds. The communal aspect of Ramadan is also important, as families and friends come together to share meals and support one another. Muslims often feel a sense of joy and celebration during the nightly iftar meals, as well as a sense of peace and contentment during the long hours of fasting. Overall, Ramadan is a time of self-reflection, discipline, and spiritual growth, and many Muslims look forward to it each year as a time to reconnect with their faith and community
