In the muslim calendar , there is a month that every muslims  people are not allowed to eat or either drink during day time .A month that they have to concentrate on their prayer and spend less their time of our everyday life.This month is the ninth month in muslim calendar which is called Ramadhan or also known as the month of fasting .Ramadhan is the month that every muslim people await in every year .Ramadhan also can be called as the holy month where all of muslims do the goods deeds .This month is also come before Syawal , which is the month that all the muslims celebrate after 30 days fasting during daytime .

                         In addition , in fasting we must intention .We have to wake up early morning before subuh prayer  to eat .Then we must stop eating and drinking at  subuh .Then , we have to break fasting during adzhan mahgrib .To follow the sunnah , we must eat a tamar at the the break fasting .

                         During night , it is common that every muslims go to the masjid and spend several time or hour in praying and reciting the Quran .Besides them praying five times a day ,it also has a special prayer which is called Terawih prayer .This prayer is a bit longer to the daily prayer such as Mahgrib , Isyak and so on .We also spend the entire night to the prayer and recite the Quran .When it comes to 10 days before the end of Ramadhan , every muslim will do the Qiamulail .Qiamulailis the prayer that muslims do at the 2/3 at the night .The condition for this Qiamulail is that we have to sleep at least a few minutes and wake up at the 2/3  night .We will chase the “Laillatul Qadar” which is the night that Prophet Muhammad first received the Holy Quran .

                        What is Iftar ? Iftar is the meal which is eaten after sunset .The fasting which occurs during the month of Ramadhan in muslim tradition .Spending my Iftar here in Kptm Kuantan has been fun .Even though it is my first Ramadhan and my first iftar without my family , I don’t feel that sad .Getting together with friend at Mahgrib and just enjoy your meal together has been a very nice memorable . Normally , what my friend and I do is that after evening , we head straight for the bazaar at Dewan Mat Kilau which is at a few metres from my campus .There , we would buy our choice of food . After another look around the bazaar , we would all go back to the campus and wait patiently to Mahgrib to come .When the Adzhan starts , we recite the prayer together and break our fast .We usually , share everything that we bought at the bazaar .

Last but not least , the fasting month is the best month in the year .The fasting month will make a person get a healthy body and also will make a person healthy in mind .The fasting month also can make we near to our god ,Allah .when we go for teraweh or wake up for Qiamulail in the night .Fasting is also to practice the religion and learn to attain piety .To reach this , five daily prayer is compulsory , zakat must be paid , prayers are to be said in both the evening and night of Ramadhan , smoking must be stopped , pornographic videos and pictures are to be kept away and excessive intake of food is avoided .
