Puasa, which translates to “fasting” in English, is a significant religious observance in Islam. During this period, Muslims refrain from eating and drinking from dawn to sunset. The year 2025 marks the beginning of a new Islamic calendar cycle, and the dates for puasa will shift accordingly.
Puasa holds great importance for Muslims, as it is considered a time for spiritual reflection and purification. It is believed that fasting helps to cleanse the body and soul, and brings one closer to God. Additionally, puasa is seen as a way to develop self-discipline and empathy for those who are less fortunate.
