“I wish the Muslim Ummah in Ghana and across the world a happy Ramadan. May the period bring you an abundance of peace, love, and blessings. May it be a sacred month for reflection, gratitude, and personal growth as we come together in unity and faith.

“I pray that all your supplications are answered and that you experience abundant blessings, health, and happiness throughout this special time. Wishing you and your loved ones a peaceful and fulfilling Ramadan. Ramadan Mubarak!”

Ramadan
During this season, all Muslims who deem themselves fit enough are mandated to observe the fast from sunrise and break it at sunset each day.

Muslims have the option to take in a pre-dawn meal before the first mandatory prayer of Muslims.

At the end of the 30-day fast, the Eid al-Fitr, a festival of feasting marking the end of the fast, is observed.

This year, the fast is expected to end on April 22 with the festival taking place on April 23.
The President of Ghana, the Vice President and some Ghanaians have begun wishing Muslims well in the fast.
