HAPPY RAMADAN TO ALL MUSLIMS ACROSS THE WORLD

Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, a holy month and a month of fasting for all capable Muslims. It is the month in which the Holy Qur'an was revealed to Prophet Mohammed according to Islamic Religious Believe. Fasting during this month, which is observed annually by Muslims is considered one of the five pillars of Islam. It is obligatory for all capable Muslim adults ( except the sick, the aged, the traveling, pregnant or menstruating women and generally, any condition that makes one incapable of fasting). It usually begins upon the sighting of the crescent moon. Muslims fast from dawn to sunset, within which they are expected to refrain from eating food, drinking fluids, smoking or indulging in sexual activity. Also, certain sinful acts such as backbiting, lying, fighting, insulting etc are considered to reduce the reward and quality of one's fast.

This year, the Holy month is upon us yet again and I wish to use this opportunity wish all Muslim brothers and sisters across the world a very HAPPY RAMADAN. Let's utilize this month and those before it to spread goodness across the earth. 

The month of Ramadan is that in which was revealed the Quran; a guidance for mankind, and clear proofs of the guidance, and the criterion (of right and wrong). And whosoever of you is present, let him fast the month, and whosoever of you is sick or on a journey, a number of other days. Allah desires for you ease; He desires not hardship for you; and that you should complete the period, and that you should magnify Allah for having guided you, and that perhaps you may be thankful. [Quran 2:185]
