Ramadan Fasting in the Muslim Community 🌙✨

Ramadan is the holiest month in Islam, observed by Muslims worldwide through fasting, prayer, and spiritual reflection. Fasting during Ramadan, known as Sawm, is one of the Five Pillars of Islam and serves as a way to purify the soul, develop self-discipline, and grow closer to Allah.


🌙 Why Do Muslims Fast in Ramadan?

Fasting is an act of obedience and devotion to Allah, as commanded in the Quran (2:183):
"O you who believe! Fasting is prescribed for you as it was prescribed for those before you so that you may attain Taqwa (piety)."

It is a time of self-restraint, reflection, and spiritual growth, helping Muslims develop patience, gratitude, and empathy for those less fortunate.


📜 Rules of Ramadan Fasting

Fasting Time: From dawn (Fajr) to sunset (Maghrib).
Acts to Avoid:

  • Eating or drinking during fasting hours.
  • Smoking.
  • Engaging in negative behaviors (lying, gossiping, arguing).
    Who Must Fast?
  • Every healthy adult Muslim.
    Who is Exempt?
  • Children, the elderly, the sick, travelers, pregnant or breastfeeding women, and menstruating women.
    Breaking the Fast:

  • Intentional breaking: Requires Kaffarah (penalty) or making up for the missed fast.
