Summary
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Muslim calendar. It is
time when Muslims concentrate more on their faith and less on their
everyday lives. Throughout Ramadan, Muslims observe a strict fast during
daylight hours. In the evening the fasting is broken with a prayer and a
light meal (iftar). It is also traditional after the iftar for Muslims
to visit with family or friends. On the 27th day of the month Muslims
observe the Night of Power (Laylat-al-Qadr) which commemorates the night
on which Muhammad first received his revelations from the angel Gabriel.
