Muslims are only allowed to eat; smoke and have sexual relations when the sun has set. It is said that the way to tell whether you can break your fast or not, is by getting two pieces of string, one white and the other black and if you can not tell the difference, then you can break your fast. Some people are exempt from Ramadan; as the ill, pregnant and elderly citizens should not take the risk as it is not safe. Young children under 8 normally do not fast either.
Throughout Ramadan, Muslims do not worship (because the worship of the prophet Muhammad would be unacceptable because you can only worship one god, that is Allah) but celebrate the Prophet Muhammad (“peace be upon him” is the normal phrase you would say after his name)
The Qur’an was shown to Muhammed by an angel. This point in time begins on the night the first verses were revealed, a night known as Lailut ul-Qadr ('The Night of Power') which falls within the last 10 days of the month.
I generally think it shows how they live on the word of Allah, and I think that it is amazing that they can test themselves to that extent, I personally believe that it must be a spiritual journey to reflect on your self and your mistakes, In the end I think that it shows you that deep inside you , you have that burning fire that will always be there even when you think you can’t carry on.
