**Ajmer, Rajasthan, India – March 2nd, 2025** – The holy month of Ramadan commenced today, March 2nd, 2025, with Muslims across the globe observing the first fast after the sighting of the new moon. For the next 30 days, Muslims will partake in fasting, prayer, and acts of charity as part of their spiritual observance.
Ramadan is considered a sacred time for introspection and devotion to God. Muslims engage in increased prayer (Salah), recitation of the Quran, and giving Zakat (charity). This year, the month’s significance is amplified with the emphasis on spiritual reflection and community support.
According to religious scholars, Ramadan is divided into three 10-day periods, each with its own spiritual focus. The first ten days are associated with receiving God’s mercy (Rahmat), the second with forgiveness (Maghfirat), and the final ten days with liberation from hellfire (Najat).
In Ajmer, Rajasthan, the revered Dargah Sharif of Khwaja Moinuddin Chishti is organizing Iftar (breaking of the fast) and Sehri (pre-dawn meal) arrangements for the needy and underprivileged throughout the holy month. The Dargah is known for its extensive charitable work and community support during Ramadan. The month of Ramadan is expected to be a time of increased spiritual devotion and community solidarity for Muslims worldwide.
