Ramadan is a Muslim observance although you could compare it to Lent which is a Christian observance. In Western Christianity, Lent typically starts on Ash Wednesday and lasts for 40 days. In those 40 days many Christians practice self-denial in any of the following ways: giving up different types of food, abstaining from sex for a period of time during Lent, or giving up something that they enjoy for the 40 day period. A major difference between Ramadan and Lent is that while I believe Ramadan is observed by all devout Muslims, Lent is not observed by all Christians. There are certain denominations such as the Lutherans, Catholics, Episcopalians and Methodists who observe Lent every year but members most other denominations only participate if they want to.
