The Rules Of Ramadan
- Don't eat or drink from dawn to dusk.
- Before the sun rises, Muslims usually wake up to eat a big meal so that they won't be hungry during the day.
- Those who don't want to wake up early have a big dinner before bed.
You're exempt from fasting if you're:
- Pregnant
- Sick
- Menstruating
- Travelling long distances
Children are not required to fast but they're welcome to learn by participating, such as fasting up until lunchtime.
If you miss a fast, you can make up for it by fasting at a later date. And if you can't fast because of health reasons, you can donate food or money to the poor instead.
