Ramadan (also spelled Ramazan, Ramzan, Ramadhan or Ramathan) is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar. It is observed by Muslims worldwide as a month of fasting (sawm), prayer, reflection and community. A commemoration of Muhammad’s first revelation, the observance of Ramadan is regarded as one of the Five Pillars of Islam.  It normally lasts twenty-nine to thirty days, from one sighting of the crescent moon to the next.
