Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar where Muslims fast from dawn to dusk. Fasting is one of the five pillars of Islam and is meant to bring worshippers closer to God through self-control and reflection. It commemorates the month that God first revealed verses of the Quran to Prophet Muhammad. Muslims are expected to fast if they have reached puberty, though exceptions are made for those who are ill, elderly, traveling, pregnant, breastfeeding, or menstruating. In addition to abstaining from food and drink, fasts also require avoiding sinful behaviors. Ramadan concludes with Eid al-Fitr, a celebration and time for community.
