Ramadan, the Islamic month of fasting, began earlier
this month with the sighting of the new moon. Throughout this ninth month on
the Islamic calendar, devout Muslims must abstain from food, drink, and sex
from dawn until sunset. The fast, one of the five pillars of Islam, is seen as
a time for spiritual reflection, prayers, and charity. After sunset, Muslims
traditionally break the fast by eating three dates, performing the Maghrib
prayer, and sitting down to Iftar, the main evening meal, where communities and
families gather together. Collected below are images of Muslims around the
world observing Ramadan this year.
