Puzzle cube mural made on the start of Ramadan

Ramadan is the holiest month in Islam, observed by Muslims worldwide as a time of fasting, prayer, and spiritual reflection. From dawn to sunset, Muslims abstain from food, drink, and other physical needs, focusing instead on worship, self-discipline, and acts of charity. The fast is broken at Iftar, often with dates and water, followed by a meal shared with family and community.

Ramadan is Laylat al-Qadr (The Night of Power), believed to fall in the last ten nights of the month. It is said to be the night when the Quran was first revealed and is considered more spiritually rewarding than a thousand months. Many believers spend these nights in deep prayer, seeking divine blessings and forgiveness.
