Ramadan is a month of the lunar calendar. The month of Ramadan starts with the sighting of the moon on the last night of the month of Shaban. People eagerly wait for the last day of Shaban so that they can begin preparations for the month of Ramadan. Sighting of the moon evokes the spirit of fasting in a person. The month of Ramadan is a period of special religious activity. In this period, believers make important changes in their daily routine. For example, everyday they take note of the timing of the end of the dawn period and the beginning of dusk, and manage their daily life according to it. During the month of fasting they have to be very cautious about time. In this way, Ramadan brings in a special kind of religious discipline in the fasting person.
