Ramadhan is the ninth month of the Muslim year, during which strict fasting is observed from dawn to sunset.
The common practice during Ramadan includes a pre-dawn meal before the fast called the “suhur”, while the meal at sunset that breaks the fast is the “Iftar”. Muslims also engage in increased prayer and charity during Ramadhan.
The Ramadhan period officially came to an end on Thursday, 13th May 2021.
