What happens during Ramadan?

Ramadan is a holy month in Islamic culture, and during this month, Muslims observe a strict fast from dawn until sunset. This fast is one of the Five Pillars of Islam, and it involves abstaining from all food and drink, including water, during daylight hours. This means that Muslims must wake up early before dawn to eat a pre-dawn meal called “suhoor,” and then they break their fast at sunset with a meal called “iftar.” Fasting during Ramadan is a private act of worship that brings Muslims closer to God and helps them develop spiritual discipline. It also serves as a reminder of the struggles of those who are less fortunate, as fasting helps Muslims empathize with those who do not have enough to eat or drink. In addition to fasting, Muslims also increase their charitable giving and engage in additional prayer and worship during this holy month.
