Islam and Ramadan in the UK

This program speaks about British Muslims practicing Ramadan. During the month of Ramadan, Muslims won't eat or drink between dawn and sunset. This is called fasting, which is a means for Muslims to come closer to Allah, or God.

Fasting is one of the Five Pillars of Islam, which form the basis of how Muslims live. The other pillars are faith, prayer, charity and making the pilgrimage to the holy city of Mecca.

Ramadan is also a time for spiritual reflection, prayer, doing good deeds and spending time with family and friends. In this programme we analyse the environment British muslims face during the holy month of Ramadan.
