According to the Islamic calendar, Ramadan is the 9th Islamic month, in which all Muslims fasts for 29 or 30 days. Sawm is the Arabic word for fasting, particularly in the month of Ramadan and it means to refrain from food and drinks from dawn to sunset. This is one of the five pillars of Islam, and should be done by all Muslims.

Fasting in the month of Ramadan is a commandment from Allah, and shouldn't be ignored by any Muslim. Those who decide to go against Allah and not follow this commandment given by him are committing a big sin and will be punished on the day of judgement. Fasting is the act of abstaining from feeding the body in order to focus more on fully seeking Gods love and trust and feeding the spirit. Every day during the month of Ramadan, Muslims around the world get up before dawn to eat the Suhoor meal and perform the Fajr prayer. They break their fast when the sunset is due. Muslims also pay Zakaat during the month. Also, Muslims prepare special foods and buy gifts for their family and friends and for giving to the poor and needy who cannot afford it, this can involve buying new clothes, shoes and other items of need.

Finally, we believe that Ramadan is the month of competition where Muslims try to devote themselves and time to Allah by doing their prayers and reading Quran. Ramadan is the month Muslims like the most
