The Holy Month of Ramadan !!
Ramadan is a holy month in Islam and is marked as a time
of fasting. Adherence to Ramadan is one of the five pillars of Islam. By
fasting this month, Muslims believe they gain spiritual rewards and are closer
to Allah. Ramadan is the ninth month of the month-based Islamic calendar. Based
on that area, astronomical calculations or observations of the moon indicate
the beginning of the fasting that ends in the next month. Ramadan officially
begins when the Muslim Imam announces it. During the month of Ramadan, Muslims
find Allah's mercy and concern by fasting from dawn to sunset. Muslims abstain
from food, beverages, smoking and sex during the day and night. The good works
done during Ramadan will be a multiple of normal compensation for the same
thing done in the other month. For this reason tolerance and charity increase
during Ramadan. Muslims are encouraged to read the entire Quran and recite a
special prayer during Ramadan.
Ramadan is also a time to spend time with spiritual reflection, prayer,
good works, family and friends. People will make extraordinary efforts to
communicate with the community and reach out to those in need.
It is common have two meals.
- Sehri
- Iftar
Sehri is called when Muslims eat before the sunrise after that they cannot eat or drink till the sunset. People wake up early in morning for prayer before this they eat something because after that then can not eat any thing.
Iftar is a fast-breaking meal. The time of iftar is the beginning of Maghrib (right after sunset). The duration of
the magic is very short. Therefore, before the end of Maghrib, prayer must follow in a flash.
At the end of Ramadan there is a special three-day festival to mark the end of Ramadan. This is called
Eid al-Fitr - the Festival of the Breaking of the Fast. It begins when the first sight of the new moon is seen
in the sky. Muslims will not only celebrate the end of fasting, but will also thank Allah for the help and strength
that he gave them throughout the previous month.
In the end i want to wish everyone Happy Ramadan. Stay blessed and Happy. 😊
