This year, Ramadan and Navratri 2022 begin on the same day! Navratri<\/a> is the Hindu festival associated with the prominent battle that took place between Durga and the demon Mahishasura to celebrate the victory of good over evil.

Muslims’ Ramadan<\/h3>\n

Ramadan<\/a> is observed widely all over the globe holding a 30-day fast.\u00a0 Muslims believe that Allah opens doors of goodness and allows His mercy to flow in throughout April and any prayers made during this month with a pure heart are answered.\u00a0 The spiritual rewards (thawab) of fasting are believed to be multiplied during Ramadan.<\/p>\n

During this 30-day period of self-restraint, Muslims abstain not only from food and drink, but also from tobacco products, sexual relations, and profane behavior, devoting themselves instead to salat (prayer) and recitation of the Quran.<\/p>\n

It is a time of profound spiritual reflection, aims to become a better human and elevate levels of worship and devotion. Muslims endeavor to put more effort into following the teachings of Islam. The fast (sawm) begins at dawn and ends at sunset.<\/p>\n

Fasting is said to redirect the heart away from worldly activities, its purpose being to cleanse the soul by freeing it from harmful impurities. Muslims believe that Ramadan teaches them to practice self-discipline, self-control, sacrifice, and empathy for those who are less fortunate, thus encouraging actions of generosity and compulsory charity (zakat).\u00a0 Muslims also believe fasting helps instill compassion for the food-insecure poor.<\/p>\n

Ramadan is also spelled Ramazan, Ramzan, Ramadhan or Ramathan, is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar observed by Muslims worldwide as a month of fasting (sawm), prayer, reflection, and community.<\/p>\n

It is a commemoration of Muhammad’s first revelation, and the yearly observance of Ramadan is regarded as one of the Five Pillars of Islam lasting twenty-nine to thirty days, from one sighting of the crescent moon to the next.<\/p>\n
