Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, during which many Muslims fast from sunrise to sunset each day.

During Ramadan, Muslims who fast start the day by eating a meal, called suhoor, before sunrise. The fast is then broken every night after sunset with a meal called iftar. The strictness of the fast varies among Muslims, and not every Muslim fasts during Ramadan
