Ramazan

They outraged the prejudices of every conservative Mussulman by their open disregard of such an institution as Ramazan.

It was Ramazan: and he only wished to reach a spot where the sun had not yet risen, in order to enjoy a last smoke!

These Mandingoes hold the faith of Mahomet, and at the time of our arrival, were celebrating the feast of the Ramazan.

Their fasting takes place during the holy month of Ramazan, and lasts from morning twilight to sunset.

On the eve of Ramazan it is usual to issue strict orders for Turkish ladies to keep their veils down.
