Ramadan and other Islamic fasts

1050 recipesreligious

Islamic fasting, primarily observed during the holy month of Ramadan, involves abstaining from food, drink, smoking, and sexual activity from dawn (Fajr) until sunset (Maghrib). The daily fast is broken at sunset with a meal called Iftar, which traditionally begins with the consumption of dates and water, followed by a larger meal including a variety of foods such as fruits, soups, bread, rice, meats, and sweets. The pre-dawn meal, known as Suhoor, is encouraged and typically consists of nutrient-dense and hydrating foods to sustain the individual throughout the day. Adequate hydration and balanced nutrition during non-fasting hours are vital to maintain health and energy. In addition to Ramadan, Muslims may observe other voluntary fasts throughout the year, such as on Mondays and Thursdays, the Day of Arafah, and the 13th, 14th, and 15th days of each Islamic lunar month. These fasts follow the same abstention practices and are considered acts of spiritual devotion and discipline.
