Ramadan Kareem is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar and is considered the holiest month for Muslims. It is observed as a month of fasting, prayer, reflection, and community. Here are some key details about Ramadan:1. Meaning of Ramadan Kareem
"Ramadan" comes from the Arabic root "ramida" or "ar-ramad," which means scorching heat or dryness.
"Kareem" means generous or noble, so "Ramadan Kareem" is often used as a greeting, meaning "Generous Ramadan".
2. The Significance of Ramadan
Ramadan is believed to be the month in which the Holy Quran was first revealed to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
It is a time for spiritual growth, increased devotion, and self-discipline.
3. Fasting in Ramadan (Sawm)
Muslims fast from dawn (Fajr) to sunset (Maghrib).
No eating, drinking, smoking, or marital relations are allowed during fasting hours.
The fast is broken at sunset with Iftar, usually beginning with dates and water, followed by a meal.
The pre-dawn meal before fasting begins is called Suhoor.
4. Prayers and Worship
Muslims perform five daily prayers, but additional prayers called Taraweeh are performed at night in congregation.
Many Muslims also engage in reciting the Quran, making duas (supplications), and increasing charitable acts.
5. Charity and Zakat
Giving to the needy is highly encouraged during Ramadan.
Zakat (mandatory charity) and Sadaqah (voluntary charity) are common during this month.
6. The Last 10 Days and Laylatul Qadr
The last 10 nights of Ramadan are considered the most sacred.
Laylatul Qadr (Night of Power) is believed to fall on one of these nights, typically on the 27th night of Ramadan.
It is said that prayers and good deeds on this night are equivalent to worshipping for 1,000 months.
7. Eid al-Fitr (Festival of Breaking the Fast)
Ramadan ends with Eid al-Fitr, a joyful celebration with communal prayers, feasts, and giving of Zakat al-Fitr (charity for the poor).
Families and friends come together to celebrate and express gratitude to Allah.
8. Who is Exempt from Fasting?
Some individuals are exempt from fasting, including:
Children who haven't reached puberty.
The elderly or those with chronic illnesses.
Pregnant, breastfeeding, or menstruating women.
Travelers.
Those who are sick (temporary illness).
