Malaysia and Indonesia are about to enter Ramadan on March 23rd, which will last for about one month. During the period, services time such as local customs clearance and transportation will be relatively extended, please be informed.
Let's get to know something about Ramadan
Islam's earliest official regulations on Ramadan began in 623 AD. This is described in Sections 183, 184, 185, and 187 of the second chapter of the Koran.
The Messenger of Allah Muhammad also said: "The month of Ramadan is the month of Allah, and it is more expensive than any other month of the year."
The beginning and end of Ramadan are based on the appearance of the crescent moon. The imam looks at the sky from the minaret of the mosque. If he sees the slender crescent moon, Ramadan will begin.
Because the time to see the crescent moon is different, the time to enter Ramadan is not exactly the same in different Islamic countries. At the same time, because the Islamic calendar has about 355 days per year, which is about 10 days different from the Gregorian calendar, Ramadan has no fixed time in the Gregorian calendar.
During Ramadan, every day from the beginning of the east to the sunset, adult Muslims must strictly fast, except for the sick, travelers, infants, pregnant women, breastfeeding women, puerpera, menstruating women, and combat soldiers. Do not eat or drink, do not smoke, do not have sex, etc.
People will not eat until the sun went down, and then they either entertain or visit relatives and friends, just like celebrating the New Year.
For more than one billion Muslims in the world, Ramadan is the holiest month of the year. During Ramadan, Muslims express self-sacrifice by abstaining from food and drink from sunrise to sunset. During this period, Muslims fast, pray, and read the Koran.
