Around the world at the moment, there are millions of Muslims who have started their month long fasting known as Ramadan.
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, and a time when Muslims across the world will fast during the hours of daylight.
Fasting is intended to help teach Muslims self-discipline, patience and generosity. It also reminds them of the poor, who are often hungry. Most people have a meal just before they begin their fast, which is at sunrise and they do not eat or drink anything until sunset. Not all Muslims are expected to fast. Children under the age of 12, people who are travelling, elderly people, pregnant women and others where it may affect their health are exempt. Those who can’t fast for any reason can offer to feed poor people for each day they miss during Ramadan.
Muslims fast during Ramadan to bring them closer to God and to remind them of the suffering of people who are less fortunate than themselves. Fasting is an exercise in self-control. As well as not eating, drinking or smoking, Muslims try to avoid bad actions, like talking about people behind their backs or using bad language. Ramadan is a time for people to work on being more patient, more tolerant and more mindful of the people around them. It is a moment to reflect and work on being better people.
Many Muslims also donate money to charities during the month, and a lot of Islamic charities organise food packs for people in poorer countries or refugee camps. Giving donations to charity, known as Zakat, is particularly important during the holy month, and so is prayer, meditation and reading the Qur’an. Eid ul-Fitr marks the end of the month of fasting. There are many Eid traditions, mainly centred around family, food, generosity and festivities. On Eid ul-Fitr, Muslims wake up early and dress in their finest clothes to attend the Eid prayers. After prayers, they wish each other a happy Eid (‘Eid Mubarak’ in Arabic) before spending the rest of the day with their extended families, enjoying good food and sharing gifts with children and loved ones.
