While there are likely other religions who practice such rituals, the most well known of these is the Muslim practice of Ramadan, observed during the ninth (9th) month of the Islamic calendar. During this time, Muslims fast for twenty-nine (29) to thirty (30) days, depending on the year. This fasting lasts from sunrise until sunset, during which time the taking of food or drink, smoking, and sometimes swearing are prohibited. The exceptions to this prohibition include pregnant women, those who are ill, those who are traveling, and women on their menstrual cycle.
