Detailed explanation-1: -Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic lunar calendar and lasts either 29 or 30 days, depending on when the new crescent moon is, or should be, visible. The Arabic term Ramadan connotes intense heat. It seems that in pre-Islamic Arabia, Ramadan was the name of a scorching hot summer month.
Detailed explanation-2: -The word Ramadan derives from the Arabic root R-M-Ḍ (--) “scorching heat", which is the Classical Arabic verb “ramiḍa ()” meaning “become intensely hot – become burning; become scorching; be blazing; be glowing".
Detailed explanation-3: -Ramadan is the ninth month of the Muslim calendar, and is regarded as a very special month as the Quran (Holy Book) was revealed to the Prophet Mohammed pbuh during Ramadan. Muslims fast for 29/30 days – this can vary each year, depending on the lunar calendar.
