Ramadan 2025: History and significance of fasting

Live Mint  

Ramadan 2025: Ramadan, the holiest month in the Islamic calendar, is observed by Muslims worldwide as a time of fasting, prayer, and spiritual reflection. History of Ramadan To understand the history of Ramadan, we need to look back to 610 A.D., a momentous year when an Arabian man named Muhammad meditated in the cave of Hira near Mecca. Those who believe the revelations occurred over two decades suggest that Sawm, and thus Ramadan, became formalised around 622 A.D. At this time, the Prophet Muhammad and his followers were in Medina, where the hot climate influenced the term Ramadan, meaning “burning heat. Ramadan: Significance and Fasting Ramadan honours the fourth pillar of Islam, Sawm, or fasting, which encourages Muslims to practice self-control, gratitude and compassion.
