In this month, Muslims often gather in mosques for prayers and devote extra time to religious reflection and studying the Quran – their sacred scripture. Similarly, Eid al-Fitr, marking the end of Ramadan, follows the same process, with Muslims worldwide celebrating upon the moon’s confirmation. Potential Weight GainDespite daily fasting, Ramadan is known for potential weight gain. To maintain a healthy weight, Muslims are encouraged to stay hydrated, consume fruits, vegetables, and protein, and make an effort to eat suhoor each morning. To truly embrace the spirit of Ramadan when greeting others, consider using phrases like “Ramadan Kareem!” (Wishing you a generous Ramadan!)
