Fasting.
Muslims wake up an hour or two before dawn and eat. Then they fast until the sun sets. They then break their fast. Contrary to some beliefs, Muslims do not "pig out" all night, then sleep all day. Muslims rest at night just as usual, and may take a nap or two during the day to keep their strength up.
Siyam is the Arabic term for fasting, particularly during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan. Muslims fast from dawn until sunset, abstaining from food, drink, smoking, and other physical needs as an act of worship and self-discipline.
The holy month of Islam in which Muslims fast between sunrise and sunset is called Ramadan. The holiday is a time of spiritual purification, which is observed through fasting and prayers.
It is compulsory on the full month of Ramadan and voluntarily on other days of the year as, for example, every Monday and Thursday, the 9th and 10th on the month of ZuElhejja for those not on hajj, and the three middle days of each Hijra calendar month.
During Ramadan, Muslims are expected to abstain from all forms of physical intimacy, including sexual activity, from dawn until sunset. Engaging in sexual activity during fasting hours is considered a violation of the spiritual discipline and focus of the holy month. It is recommended to wait until after breaking the fast at sunset to engage in sexual activity.
