Muslims Prepare For Holy Fasting Month Of Ramadan In Kashmir
Kashmiri Muslims buy dates and dry fruits at a market in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, on February 16, 2026, ahead of the Muslim holy fasting month of Ramadan. The Muslims' holy fasting month of Ramadan is the ninth month in the Islamic calendar, and it is believed that the revelation of the first verse in the Koran occurs during its last 10 nights. Muslims celebrate it yearly by praying during the night and abstaining from eating, drinking, and sexual acts during the period between sunrise and sunset. It is also a time for socializing, mainly in the evening after breaking the fast, and a shift of all activities to late in the day in most countries. (Photo by Firdous Nazir/NurPhoto)
