Ramadan is a holy month of fasting, praying, and contemplation among the Muslims of the world. Bangladesh has active mosques where Muslims meet to offer their prayers five times a day, some special prayers called Taraweeh during the night and to have heartfelt worship. You are either at home or on the move, being aware of the prayer times is one thing that keeps you spiritually in touch during the holy month of Ramadan.
The Times of Prayer Every Day in Ramadan
Ramadan has five mandatory prayers that have a designated time limit each day:
•Fajr: Before dawn
•Dhuhr: Midday
•Asr: Afternoon
•Maghrib: Immediately after the evening prayers (at the time of breaking fast)
•Isha: Night prayer
Muslims anticipate the Maghrib prayer during Ramadan, particularly when they are to have iftar or end the fast.
In Bangladesh, most mosques put schedules on the notice boards, mobile applications and loudspeakers daily to enable worshippers to attend on schedule.
Taraweeh- Nightly Ramadan prayers
Taraweeh is one of the most treasured traditions during Ramadan, which is a set of voluntary night prayers that are offered after Isha. Taraweeh is very fulfilling and inspirational throughout the month as imams recite the Quran.
Taraweeh meetings held in big mosques in Bangladesh, such as Dhaka, Chittagong and Sylhet, are attended by people in large numbers, particularly during Lailatul Qadr nights of the last 10 days of Ramadan.
Community Spirit and Mosques
Local neighbourhood mosques open their doors to representatives of local communities, as well as the Baitul Mukarram National Mosque in Dhaka, to pray, reflect, and provide charity. In most mosques, there are also programs of iftar and Qur’an classes among children and adults.
Summary
Ramadan in Bangladesh is full of enriching prayer experiences, and well organized prayer schedules, and loved Taraweeh nights. Monitoring of prayer times and attending activities in mosques enable the worshippers to strengthen their faith and bond as a community during this sacred month.
