As we enter the second half of Ramadan, Muslims have a lot to say about the holy month.
We had a look at Twitter to see what people are saying and it was really fun. People are sharing personal reflections, photos, spiritual posts and even jokes.
We collected random tweets that give a sense of Ramadan on social media.

? Waiting for Iftar ✔An absolute honour to join Iftar, the meal eaten by fasting Muslims after sunset during #Ramadan. We are Sikhs & weren’t fasting, yet my son & I waited for over 2 hours for sunset time for Fatoor #RamadanInIstanbul pic.twitter.com/2DLDd73qqR

Ramadan leads people who never prayed to pray. Don't laugh about someone who might find his/her turning point in these blessed days.#ramadan

Fasting is not just abstaining from food and drink; one must also abstain from cheating, lying, slandering and all other sins for his fast to be perfect. May Allah make it easy for everyone. Ameen! #Ramadan

The goal of fasting is taqwā. Translated as piety, it comes from a word meaning to protect. Hence, wiqāya from the same root as taqwā, means a shield. Fasting shields us from evil, bad health and from God’s anger in this life and the next. #ramadan

While fasting thinking of your Kidneys: they are just 1 of countless miracles.Not only do they clean our blood,they also correct our Oxygen and Vitamin D levels.They maintain and adjust our Blood Pressure and provide us with 400 gallons of filtered blood everyday.#Ramadan

You know you are #OnTheSunnah when the Quran alerts you to danger, invites you to good, polishes your character, restricts you from sin & builds your faith. @yahya_ibrahim #quote #SundayReads #Ramadan

Prophet ﷺ said, "Whoever does not give up forged speech and evil actions, Allah is not in need of his leaving his food and drink (i.e. Allah will not accept his fasting.)" (Sahih Al-Bukhari) #Hadith #Ramadan #Fasting.
