During the holy month, Muslims fast each day abstaining from food and drink from dawn to dusk.
The Ramazan fast begins with a pre-dawn meal called "Sehri" and at sunset, when it's time to mark the end of the daylong fast, families and friends gather for an evening meal known as "iftar."
Fasting is aimed at drawing worshippers closer to Almighty Allah through self-control, remembrance and humility.
The challenge of fasting for many is also an opportunity to reset themselves spiritually and physically and get rid of bad habits and purify the heart.
During the day, it is also mandatory for Muslims to abstain from gossip and cursing and are encouraged to focus on meditative acts like prayer, reading the Quran and charity.
The Tarawih Salah will also begin from tonight and arrangements have been made at all small and big mosques across the country for faithfuls.
During the Tarawih Salah, Qaris recite holy Quran which mesmerizes the faithfuls.
