Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar. It is a period of prayer, fasting, charity-giving, and self–accountability for Muslims around the world.
The Quran was revealed to the Holy Prophet’s (PBUH) heart this month.
During Ramadan, Muslims fast (abstain from foods and drinks) from sunrise to sunset.
They also devote a considerable amount of time during this month to reading and contemplating the Quran.
