In Pakistan, the arrival of Ramadan signifies a time of spiritual renewal, communal solidarity, and cherished traditions.
As the crescent moon heralds the holy month, Muslims around the country start on a journey of fasting, prayer, and meditation.
Ramadan revolves around the rituals of iftar and sehri, which punctuate each day with moments of fellowship and devotion. As the sun sets, families and communities gather to break their fast and celebrate the evening meal.
Before dawn, the silence of the night is broken by the call to sehri, signalling the beginning of another day of fasting. Individuals emerge from their slumber, bleary-eyed but resolute, to partake in the pre-dawn meal that will fuel them for the long day ahead.
