What is the origin of Ramadan?

To find the origin of Ramadan, we must go back to the year 610. The angel Gabriel would have appeared to the prophet Muhammad in order to reveal the Koran to him. This revelation – Laylat al-Qadr or Night of Destiny – would have occurred during Ramadan. It is to commemorate this event that Muslims practice fasting for a month. Formed by the Arabic root “ar-ramad”, Ramadan means “scorching heat”.

What to eat during Ramadan?

Dates, Chorba, Harira, semolina, wheat, oriental pastries… Each evening, when the sun goes down, the fast can be broken. It’s’iftar, or the evening meal. Until dawn – hour of theimsak – Muslims are allowed to eat and drink.

What are the prohibitions during Ramadan?

In addition to fasting, practitioners must observe very strict behavioral rules and respect certain prohibitions. During this ascetic period, they will not be able to have sex during the day, smoke, make obscene remarks or wear makeup. It is important to note that inadvertent eating does not imply atonement or catch-up fasting. The stunned thus benefits from a certain indulgence. Conversely, a deliberate transgression of the rules recommended by Ramadan annuls the fast. Finally, Muslims practicing Ramadan pray five times a day, one of the prayers taking place at the time of breaking the fast. Since the time of prayers is determined by the movement of the sun, they must refer to a calendar of prayer times.

Who can follow Ramadan?

All pubescent people are targeted by the fast. Some Muslims may however be exempted from this practice in strictly defined cases: in case of chronic illness, pregnancy, travel or old age.

What is Zakat Al-Fitr?

It is also a tradition that practitioners adorn themselves with new clothes and pay an alms dedicated to the poor called Zakat El Fitr. This custom thus makes it possible to validate the fasting month of Ramadan. It is generally the father of the family who pays a sum of 7 euros to the people for whom he is responsible.

To wish a happy Ramadan to loved ones, it is customary to pronounce “Ramadan Mubarak!”
