Here i am to introduce and deliver some information about Pakistani culture

so i would like to start from this Holy Month Ramadan Kareem
being Islamic Country , The Holy Month Ramadan Kareem is included in Pakistani as well as Islamic culture.

Ramadan is the 9th month of the Muslim calendar year. It is considered the most holy and spiritual months of all 12 months.
In Pakistan this month is celebrated with numerous prayers and rituals.

Ramadan, the holiest month of the Islamic calendar, is a month of fasting from dawn to sunset. During this time Muslims are not permitted to drink liquids, eat any kind of food whatsoever and also prohibited to show affection to their spouses during the day i.e. kiss etc.

Sehri or Suhor is the meal in the morning just before sunrise - it is usually a light meal.

Iftar or Iftari is the time of the evening meal just after sunset, traditionally a light snack of dates and water, although this might no be so obvious in Dubai.

**Special foods are cooked in greater quantities, parties are held, and special accommodation is made by workplaces and educational institutes.

It is widely observed by Pakistan's Muslim majority. Muslims during this month will fast, attend mosques with increased frequency, and Men offer a special long Prayer of 20 Rakka known as Namaz-traveeh every day with Isha prayer while women do the same at home, and recite Qur'an.

Offices usually open earlier than normal i.e. 8AM or 8:30 and close at 2:30 or 3PM same is the case for banks and government departments.

In the bazaars they open late and usually have a break during the evening prayers and the long prayer of Taraveeh and they re-open again till 10PM and even till midnight.

During this month all restaurants, food stalls in the streets and Paan shops are closed and it is illegal to eat in the public although not as enforced by law but people observe this law because of respect and to avoid criticism from the people.
