Muslims in Pakistan generally start keeping fasts after the National Moonsighting Committee sights the moon of Ramadan. Muslims fast from dawn (Fajr prayers) to dusk (Mughrib prayers), during which time they refrain from food and drink, as well as other "sinful" acts, such as lying, backbiting, fighting, etc. Many Muslims also refrain from listening to music during this time. The month of fasting ends with the sighting of the new moon of Shawwal, after which Eid ul Adha is celebrated. Besides the fasting, business goes on in Pakistan as usual. Businesses usually only take a few hours' break at the time of Iftaar (or breaking fast), or may end earlier than usual, so that employees are able to break their fasts in time.
