What does the month of Ramzan imply?

The Urdu spelling of the Islamic holy month is 'Ramzan,' while the Arabic spelling is 'Ramadan.' Ramadan literally translates to "extreme heat". It is derived from the Arabic term Ramda, which means 'sun-baked.'

The term makes reference to the dry climate of the Southern Arabian Peninsula, which is regarded as the birthplace of Islam. Muslims give donations to the disadvantaged at the end of the month of Ramadan. This is called as fitra or zakat al-fitr. The amount of zakat is determined using the saa'a system, which is an Arabic system for calculating dates and grains. This procedure must be performed before to Eid.
