Ramadan is a holy month for the Muslims around the world and it is a time for The Spiritual development charity and see guidance and for given us from The Almighty Allah. Muslims try to spend the month with commitment and sincerity and everyone try to perform good deeds. We start the preparations by storing the food for sahoor and Iftar. Sahoor is the meal that we did in Pre-Dawn and Iftar is the time to break the fast.

For Ramzan we prepare ourselves by eating and drinking nutritious foods and ready our body to fast the whole day. In the Ramzan preparation some people start sleeping earlier and practice to consume the meals according to the Ramzan timing.

Fasting, prayer and Quran recital are intensified throughout Ramadan. Some individuals may make a goal to read the entire Quran during the month, while others may attend special taraweeh prayers at their local mosque.

Before Ramadan Muslims star preparations both by physical or spiritual aspects.Same is the case with me I try to eat tge nutritious meals and set my sleeping routine before Ramadan.

What are your big hopes for the holy month of Ramadan this year?

---

For the Muslims Ramadan is a time of spiritual growth and opportunity to increase your connection with Allah Almighty. Throughout the month we try to follow the guidelines of our religion and fast during the day and break our fast at night before the Maghrib prayer.

Some people may hope to increase the amount of time they pray and also try to decide the holy book Quran during this month. We also try to charit to the needy persons.

As well as being related to one's own personal goals, Ramadan may also be associated with larger societal or global aims. For example, the cessation of conflict and suffering around the world, as well as an increase in compassion and tolerance among people of varying religious and cultural backgrounds, may be something that many people hope for.

Mostly the objectives that we interlink with Ramadan are profoundly the personal believes of Muslims.

Every year this Holy month Ramdan provides us the opportunity to take the forgiveness from The Almighty and share the spirit of devotion and service with our different acts such as by our prayers, charity etc

Have a balanced Diet

Before and after fasting, you must have a balanced diet to ensure that your body receives the necessary nutrients.This is really important to avoid the weaknesses of the body.
