The Islamic holy month of Ramadan is a time for Muslims to renew their focus on spiritual life and its practical application in daily life. It is a good time to engage with their inner selves and with the Creator. This 2023, Ramadan lasts from Thursday, March 23 to Thursday, April 20.
During Ramadan, Muslims practise sawm or fasting. They abstain from food and drink during daylight hours. However, because fasting during Ramadan is physically taxing, exemptions are made for young children, the elderly, pregnant women, and people with health conditions.
To get through a long day without food, Muslims usually wake up early to eat a meal called suhur before daybreak. During the day, they are encouraged to engage in charity and devote extra time to spiritual activities, such as praying and reading the Quran.
At sunset, the fast is broken with an evening meal called iftar. It is often a family or community event, commonly eaten at long tables set up in mosques, community centers, or outdoors.
