The month of Ramadan/ Muslim believers start fasting today

The holy month of Ramadan for all Muslim believers has started today (March 23).

Ramadan starts 10 to 12 days earlier every year due to the lunar Hijri calendar.

The month of fasting is not only related to the sacrifice for food, but also the caution in behaviors that are considered inappropriate in the Islamic religion such as: lies, slander, jealousy, greed and false witness.

Minors, the elderly, the sick and pregnant women, even if they are believers, may not fast.

The first whistle started today at sunrise.
