Muslims across Nigeria prepare for spiritual reflection, fasting, and community observances

The Sultanate has officially announced that Ramadan fasting will commence on Wednesday, marking the start of the Islamic holy month dedicated to fasting, prayer, reflection, and community. Muslims across the country are preparing to observe the fast from dawn to sunset, a practice that continues to be a central pillar of Islamic faith and spiritual discipline.

During Ramadan, followers abstain from food, drink, and other physical needs during daylight hours, focusing instead on increased devotion, charitable activities, and self-discipline. The Sultanate also called on worshippers to adhere strictly to the principles of the fast, emphasizing compassion, generosity, and patience throughout the month.

Religious leaders have urged communities to respect social distancing and safety protocols during congregational prayers and communal gatherings, ensuring the observance remains safe and inclusive for all participants. The holy month of Ramadan is also expected to inspire various charitable initiatives, including the distribution of food and essential supplies to underprivileged families.

The announcement has prompted families, businesses, and Islamic organizations to make necessary preparations, from suhoor (pre-dawn meal) arrangements to iftar (breaking fast) activities, while mosques are readying special prayer sessions and Quranic recitations for the month.

With Ramadan beginning Wednesday, Muslims nationwide are encouraged to embrace the spiritual and social significance of the month, strengthening community bonds and personal faith through devotion and acts of kindness.
