One of the five pillars of Islam, Ramadan is the month during which Allah is said to have revealed the first verses of the Koran, the Islamic holy book, to the Prophet Muhammad. During Ramadan, from sunrise to sunset, observant Muslims (with some exceptions, mostly health related) are forbidden to eat or drink (or smoke, or engage in sexual activity) to purify their thoughts and increase their devotion to God. The month-long holiday is observed principally in Muslim-majority countries in Africa and Asia but also by the believers around the world, including the roughly 3.3 million Muslims living in the U.S. Ramadan is a major global event, but just when, exactly, it begins is a matter of some debate. Every year, the world’s 1.7 billion Muslims-roughly a quarter of the global population-celebrate the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, a time for fasting and extra piety to cleanse the soul and come closer to God.
