Tomorrow Ramadan starts. That’s the fasting month for all Muslims.  

It is also a time of spiritual reflection, improvement and increased devotion and worship.

Fasting is one of the 5 Pillars of the Islam. The other 4 are:

Daily prayer, statement of faith, give charity and pilgrim to Mecca.

The Republic of the Maldives is an Islamic country and we have many Muslim staff here on Hondaafushi.

The month is spent fasting during daylight hours from dawn to sunset. In the end of Ramadan there will be the “Festival of Breaking Fast” – one of the biggest Islamic holidays.

We wish you a Blessed Ramadan
