Ramadan is a very special month for the Muslims, as in it Muslims around the world perform various types of worship, the most important of them being fasting. This fasting of Ramadan is one of the five pillars of Islam, mandatory upon all adolescents and adults who have the ability. Ramadan is also the month in which the first revelation came to the Prophet Muhammad, and thus is called the “Month of the Quran”.
God says in the Quran: “Fasting has been prescribed for you as it has been prescribed for those before you in order that you become of the God-conscious.” (Quran 2:183)
During Ramadan, Muslims try to adhere to three types of worship - three of the five pillars of the Islamic faith.
The first is Sawm, ie fasting. Throughout the month, most Muslims refrain from eating or drinking between dawn and sunset.
The second is Zakat, which is charity - they are encouraged to give 2.5% of their annual income during Ramadan.
The third is salat, which is to pray. Muslims are encouraged to pray five times a day. Traditionally, many also attend additional communal prayers, called Taraweeh, which take place every evening.
Muslims are also encouraged to read the entire Quran during the month of Ramadan. This is a time of spiritual concentration and deep contemplation.

Why do Muslims fast? The first fast is believed to have taken
place in 624 CE, when the Prophet Muhammad persuaded the people of
Medina to give up their food and donate it to the starving worshipers
who followed him from Mecca.
The reasons for
fasting are many. It is seen as a way to come closer and focus more
clearly on one's relationship with God. It is a reminder of one's
dependence on God for sustenance and - by experiencing hunger and thirst
- a way to feel more compassionate towards those in need.
Fasting
is also seen as a way to learn discipline and patience and to break bad
habits, and some also see it as a way to cleanse the body of
impurities.
How and when does fasting take place? Observant
Muslims fast from sunrise to sunset. This means that they must refrain
from eating, drinking (including water), smoking and having sex during
the day, which is particularly difficult if Ramadan takes place in the
spring, when the days are longer.
You have to wake up early
in the morning to stock up on food and water at the dawn meal called
suhoor, and eat nothing for 16 hours. After the sun goes down, Muslims
traditionally break their fast with friends and family at a ceremonial
meal called iftar.

How can I support a
friend or colleague who is fasting?
Traditionally, most
Muslims continue to work and, if schools are open, attend classes during
Ramadan, even if they cannot eat or drink for hours. If you work or live near
someone who is fasting, here are some ways to actively show your support
• Be patient: If a friend or colleague is irritable due to lack
of sleep, food and water, don't take it personally.
• If you manage someone at work who observes Ramadan, you may be
able to help them by offering them flexible working hours that better
accommodate their modified eating and sleeping schedules.
• Be mindful of prayer times: Your friend or co-worker may not
be able to host a video meeting or meet you for a walk outside at certain times
of the day if they are praying or s he doesn't have the energy to exercise.
• Do not ask a Muslim why he is not eating or if he is hungry!
But you can wish him a blessed and happy Ramadan by saying Ramadan Mubarak to
him.
Should all Muslims
fast?
Not all Muslims are
required to fast. There are special exemptions for young children, the elderly
and anyone who is sick, pregnant, breastfeeding or menstruating.

The night
of Al-Qadr is the most virtuous night of the year. Allah says in the
Qur’an: “We revealed it on the night of power [that is, Al-Qadr]. What
will tell you what the night of power is? It is better than a thousand
months.” Any action therein, for example, reciting the Qur’an, making
remembrance of Allah, and so on, is better than acting for one thousand
months which do not contain the night of Al-Qadr. It is preferred to
seek this night:
It is preferred to seek this night
during the last ten nights of Ramadan, as the Prophet, peace and
blessings be upon him, strove his best in seeking it during that time.
We have already mentioned that the Prophet would stay up during the last
ten nights, would wake his wives, and then would remain apart from them
to worship.
Scholars hold different opinions as to the night, which is the night of Al-Qadr. Which night is Laylat ul Qadr?
Scholars
hold different opinions as to the night, which is the night of Al-Qadr.
Some are of the opinion that it is the 21st, some say the 23rd, others
say the 25th and still others say it is the 29th. Some say that it
varies from year to year but it is always among the last ten nights of
Ramadan. Most scholars, though, vouch for the 27th. Ahmad recorded, with
a Authentic chain, from Ibn Umar that the Prophet said: “He who likes
to seek that night should do so on the 27th. ‘Ubayy ibn Kab said: By
Allah, and there is no god but Him, it is during Ramadan-and He swore to
that-and by Allah, I know what night it is. It is the night during
which the Prophet ordered us to make prayers, the night of the 27th. Its
sign is that the sun rises in the morning white and without any rays.”
(Related by Muslim, Abu Dawud, Ahmad, and by At-Tirmidhi who called it
Authentic.) Praying and making supplications during the night of Al-Qadr:
Al-Bukhari
and Muslim record from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet, peace and
blessings be upon him, said: “Whoever prays during the night of Al-Qadr
with faith and hoping for its reward will have all of his previous sins
forgiven.”
As to the supplication during the night of Al-Qadr,
`A’ishah said: “I asked the Messenger of Allah: ‘O Messenger of Allah,
if I know what night is the night of qadr, what should I say during it?’
He said: ‘Say: O Allah, You are pardoning and You love to pardon, so
pardon me.’ ” (Related by Ahmad, Ibn Majah, and by At-Tirmidhi, who
called it Authentic.) https://islamonline.net/en/night-of-al-qadr/" rel="nofollow - https://islamonline.net/en/night-of-al-qadr/

After the 30 days of Ramadan comes Eid al-Fitr.
This great three-day feast is an opportunity for Muslims to come together to end their fasting period with a feast.
Traditionally this means eating, drinking and exchanging gifts with friends and family.

Ramadan is a very important holiday for our religion. I always follow his rules and I've never had a problem with it before. But this year I was faced with the fact that I did not know if I could use kratom during Ramadan. Sometimes I use kratom to relieve anxiety or headache (I take it here if you are interested - https://www.kratomcountry.com/" rel="nofollow - https://www.kratomcountry.com/ ). Can someone explain to me if this is allowed in Ramadan? Thank you in advance.

Ramadan is indeed a special month for us (muslims) worldwide, marked by fasting, increased worship, charity, and deep spiritual reflection. Fasting during Ramadan is obligatory for all Muslims who are physically and mentally able to do so. It serves as a means of self-discipline, spiritual reflection, and empathy towards those less fortunate. Besides fasting, we are encouraged to engage in acts of charity (zakat) and increase our prayers during Ramadan. Giving zakat during this month is particularly emphasized, as it provides support to those in need. We are also encouraged to recite and reflect upon the Quran more frequently during this month, with the goal of seeking guidance, wisdom, and spiritual enlightenment. Overall, the month of Ramadan provides us with the opportunity to strengthen our faith, purify our hearts, and renew our commitment to living a righteous life.

Islam teaches patience and understanding toward others, especially during times of hardship. It encourages individuals to be mindful of the challenges faced by those fasting and to show empathy and support. We (muslims) are required to perform five daily prayers, and during Ramadan, additional prayers be observed. Ramadan is obligatory for Muslims who are physically and mentally capable of doing so. However, there are exemptions for certain individuals as well, including young children, the elderly, pregnant and menstruating women, and those who are ill. Islam encourages sincere observance of religious duties while also prioritizing the preservation of health and well-being.
