2. Educational Pursuits
In Shia tradition, the month of Ramadan is not solely dedicated to fasting; it is equally an educational period. Scholars and community leaders often emphasize the importance of enhancing one’s knowledge of Islamic teachings. On the 11th of Ramadan, various religious educational programs are organized, focusing on the significance of fasting, the life of the Prophet Muhammad, and the teachings of the Ahlulbayt (the family of the Prophet).
The study of relevant Islamic texts gains prominence during this time, with many community members participating in discussions or lectures. By engaging with foundational texts and contemporary exegeses, individuals aim to sharpen their understanding of faith and ethical conduct while cultivating a bond with historical figures who exemplified piety and wisdom.
