Well Easter is celebrated by Catholics and Christians while Ramadan is celebrated by Muslims. Ramadan is a full month of fasting while Easter is not. Easter consists of bunnies and chocolates as a big symbol that everyone has but Ramadan does not have that.

Yom Kippur is a Jewish day of Solemn Assembly. Jews do not eat, drink, wear leather shoes, or have sex. They gather in groups at the Synagogue to pray in Hebrew Language. They observe the Laws of Shabbat from sunset the day before Yom Kippur until after dark on Yom Kippur including no car driving, no fire handling, and no operation of electrical appliances.

Ramadan is an Islamic month where Muslims fasts for all its days. During fasting, Muslims are not allowed to eat, drink, smoke, and or practicing sex over the daytime from just before dawn until sunset.

What is the Pagan name for lent?

Pagans do not observe Lent. Lent is a Christian practice. Modern pagans call Lent Lent, the same as we call Passover Passover, Ramadan Ramadan and Mothers' Day Mothers' day.

Is Ramadan similar to any Christian practices?

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.
