Second Friday Of The Holy Fasting Month Of Ramadan In Kashmir, India
A Kashmiri Muslim devotee holds a religious icon chain as he prays at an old shrine of Persian Sufi saint Mir Syed Ali Hamdani during the second Friday of the holy fasting month of Ramadan, in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, on February 27, 2026. 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 nighttime 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)
