DHAKA: The holy month of Ramadan for Muslims is here. This is the month for practising self-restraint for spiritual cleansing. It reminds Muslims of that unique feature of Islam, the value and importance of leading a life of austerity, kindness and the true meaning of brotherhood. It teaches us humility and to be kind to the less fortunate.
Ramadan is also the time for all Muslims for soul-searching and indeed taking stock of their lives and works over the years. In todays context, Ramadan bears special significance not just for Bangladesh but the entire Muslim world.
