RAMZAN is the only month in the
Muslim calendar which has special mention in the
Holy Koran. Ramzan is the month for prayer,
self-restraint and penance. It is the month for
self-introspection and during this time, all good
and devout Muslims are expected to fast from
sunrise to sunset, from dawn to dusk. This is
known as the Roza and true
Muslims will not eat or drink anything during the
specified time! The fasting period lasts for a
month at a stretch. This is part of the penance
or time for atonement. The roza
is broken at the end of the day with prayer and
by eating dates. Or tasting salt. This is
followed by a small meal or a snack called the iftaari.
Muslims will congregate in small groups for the iftaari
and share the meal.
