In Nigeria and other places around the world, Muslims began fasting on Thursday, the first day of the month of Ramadan.
During this month, Muslims worship more and don't do things that are against the rules.
One of the five pillars of Islam is to fast during Ramadan. The other four are martyrdom, five prayers, zakat, and Hajj.

Spread religion
Save your time for important things like life and religion.
