Sehri, also known as Suhoor, is the pre-dawn meal eaten by Muslims before they begin their daily Ramadan fast. It's the last chance to fuel up for the day before sunrise marks the start of the fast. Ideally, Sehri is eaten before Fajr prayer, the first prayer of the morning. Therefore, Muslims look for the deadline (sunrise time) to finish Sehri.
