The sacred month of Ramzan is the time for earnest labour, fasting, prayers and the study of the Holy Quran. And the loftiest achievement of the moral exercises is celebrated with great zeal on Eid al-Fitr.

Fasting is an exercise in self-discipline. During the month of Ramzan, the believer abstains from food and drink in the daytime of his own free will. It is only after sunset that he satisfies his hunger and quenches his thirst. In this way, he builds up his self-control. By practising restraint for one month in a year, he is able to lead a life of self-discipline in all matters for the rest of the year.
