Ramadhan or Ramadan is the ninth month of the Muslim calendar in which whole Muslim world observes fasting for 29 to 30 days from dawn till dusk. This month is the most revered month among others. There are countless blessings conferred upon the believer when he is fasting even his sleep is counted as ibadat. It is the month when the door of mercy of Allah is open wide for the believers and gates of hell are closed.

In Pakistan, there are countrywide preparations to welcome Ramadan, from markets to hawkers, from household to restaurants, everyone is busy in making lucrative offers to make Ramadan more fancy and extravagant. This special welcome of Ramada has been observed for ages. Women at the household devise the meal plans or menu for seher (early morning) or Iftar (fast-breaking time usually dusk). It has been a trend from the years to make tasty and yummy food items for the ones who are fasting, many healthy juices and smoothies are being made at home to quench the thirst after the iftaar. Restaurants introduce many buffet deals and offer to attract clients too.

While preparing for Ramadan, it is important ...
... to remember that fasting should be done with the true spirit and
a healthy Ramadan is to make food intake as simple as possible. There should not be a table, full of oily and thick food items, whereas less cooked and raw food like fruits and salad should be added to avoid acidity and digestion issues. The stomach should not be over essence as the sole purpose of Ramadan is to achieve Allah’s mercy and his nearness, not stuffing the food into the stomach. Ramadan is not an eating carnival but a blessed month where riches feel the pain of the poor by observing the fast and refrain from eating and drinking in abundance. Usually, it has been noticed that in Ramadan, due to different family gatherings, iftar dinners when people stuff their plates excessively and Nearly half of the food in their plates is uneaten and goes to waste. We should avoid such unhealthy practices and condemn it to save food for the poor and needy.

Another aspect of leading burdened by high calories meaty dishes. Water intake should be monitored as usually, we have Ramadan in hot and scorching weather when the issues of dehydration are on the rise, so one should take as much water as possible after the iftar till the seher time. To beat the heat and body needs, the liquid should be added to the daily meal. Other than a physical diet one should also take care of food for the soul. Ramadan is the month when the reward of every good deed is multiply so one should give charity, help poor and should take part in every charitable work. Our soul strives to be feed on positive activities. All Supplications and ibadat should be done to invoke Allah’s mercy not to show off the world.

Ramadan offers a great deal of rewards for the believers who perform umrah in this sacred month as performing umrah this month makes it a lesser Hajj.
