Ramadan, as well known as Ramzan, is respected by Muslims all around the globe as a month of fasting to remember the first disclosure of the Quran to Muhammad, as per the Islamic belief. The holy month is celebrated by the followers of the faith solemnly with fasting and abstaining from other pleasures.
The aim of the fast is to bring the faithful devotees closer to God and to remind them of the agonies of those who are less fortunate. Granting to the holy book of Quran, during the month of Ramzan, Muslims are supposed to feed the hungry and donate to charities
