How many hours do you fast in a day as fasting for 18 hours isn't a joke out of the 24 hours which make up a day?  The Ramadan fasting will end after 29 or 30 days. For each Ramadan fasting day, it commences with Sahuur and ends with Iftaar. Fasting period between Sahuur and Iftaar differs from country to country. It should be known that in some countries, the fasting period each day is roughly 14 hours, while it is less in some countries, and more in other countries. In Nigeria for instance, fasting is roughly 14 hours daily, which means Ramadan fasting starts from 4:55am and ends 6:45pm in cities like the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja. In other cities (Lagos, Borno, Delta, Kogi, Sokoto or Enugu) in Nigeria, there are slight differences between the end of Sahuur and taking of Iftaar. In order for refreshing of memories, Sahuur is the pre dawn meal taking when fasting, while Iftaar is the fruits or liquid taken when breaking the fast, which indicates a day's fasting ha...

Since this article is mainly about Sahuur, the focus will be on why you won't neglect Sahuur again if you have the habit of not taking Sahuur. Sahuur literally translates into English language as 'early part of the morning' or 'some time period before dawn' or 'a period before the second call to prayer for Salaatul Subh is made' or based on the context of Ramadan, which means 'taking a meal before getting ready for...

As Ramadan Daily Digest churns out different topics on various aspects of human interest, using the Islamic perspectives, feminism and gender equality will be written on in this piece.

According to differencebetween.net, "feminism is a set of ideologies, political, and social movements sharing a common goal of defining, creating and achieving equality among different sexes, mostly on the side of women. Gender equality, on the other hand, refers to a state where certain rights, freedoms, and opportunities are not affected by gender." Feminism and gender equality are defined by people in...
