Ramadan is a period of fasting in the Islamic religion. Muslims use this period to seek Allah’s face and pray for forgiveness of sins. Muslims believe that the practice of fasting is necessary for believers to attain the fear of Allah and be closer to him.



Ramadan is observed in the ninth month of the Islamic calendar and it is observed over 30 days. During the Ramadan period, Muslims across the globe abstain from food, drinks and anything that will cause them to sin.
