Abstract
- Ramadan is a sacred month for Muslims, during which they fast from sunrise to sunset and engage in spiritual reflection, prayer, and good deeds. It is one of the Five Pillars of Islam, and marks the time when the Qur'an was revealed to Prophet Muhammad. Ramadan begins with the sighting of the crescent Moon and ends with a celebration called Eid al-Fitr, where Muslims gather with family and friends to eat special foods, exchange gifts, and visit mosques. While not everyone is expected to fast, Ramadan holds special significance for Muslims around the world. [Extracted from the article]
