The arrival of Ramadan is time for reflection, devotion and generosity. For muslims around the world, this month is not about fasting from dawn to sunset, but self-growth and charitable giving. Ramadan teaches muslims to practice self-discipline, self-control, and compassion for those who are less fortunate, and encouraging generosity and charity.
