The holy month of Ramzan, also known as Ramadan, began on March 12 after the crescent moon was sighted on the evening of March 11. This sacred month is a time of fasting, prayer, reflection, charity, and humanitarian activities for Muslims worldwide, with fasting being one of the five pillars of Islam.

The day starts with Sehri, a pre-dawn meal eaten before the Fajr (morning) prayer, and ends with Iftar, the evening meal that breaks the fast after sunset.
