What up, Tenors?

Um, I could be honest.

Okay, there's a lot of things I don't know everything about.

So when I don't, I like to go to someone who might know more than I do.

And today, I'm curious about Ramadan.

Well, then, you're in luck.

Because for today's minisode, we asked Ten News correspondent Jamie Guerra to tell us all about this special time of year. Let's get into it.

10. 9. 8, 7, 6. 5, 4, 3, 2.1.

It's March 22nd, 2024.

And that means we are 12 days into the holiest month of the year for 1.8 billion people across the world.

Not million, billion.

I'm talking about Ramadan, the most important Muslim holiday, a holiday that is so important that Muslims literally celebrate it for an entire month.

But what exactly is Ramadan and why do we observe it?

Ramadan is a month dedicated to fasting, reflection, and prayer.

Every year during the ninth month of the Muslim calendar, we celebrate

the time the first verses of the Quran, the holy book of Islam, were revealed to the Prophet

Muhammad. This happened over 1,400 years ago, and every single year since then, Muslims

have commemorated this event through fasting. And what is fasting for those who may not know?

Well, it doesn't mean you have to move at super speed

for the entire month.

It actually means that you can't eat or drink.

Not eating for an entire month sounds hard, right?
