All government, semi-government and private offices have arranged new office schedules. Muslims are meant to fast from dawn to dusk during the lunar month, a time of restraint and austerity.
Ramadan is a period of self-reflection and spiritual growth. Muslims dedicate themselves to prayer, charity, and strengthening their connection with Allah.
