During Ramadan, Muslims observe fasting from dawn to dusk and engage in spiritual reflection, prayer, and charity. Some dos include breaking the fast with dates and water, offering extra prayers and giving to the needy. Don'ts include eating, drinking, smoking, and engaging in sexual activity during fasting hours. Those observing should also avoid gossip, negative thoughts and actions that may harm others. Ramadan is a holy time to purify the soul and increase devotion to God while fostering community and empathy towards others.
