Ramadan is the time of total commitment of worship of Allah. It is also the time where total commitment of the person's physical, mind and soul subjected to the spirit of the Ramadan. It is the time of self-restraint; self renewal, self evaluations, self corrections. It is the time to cleanse the body, the mind and soul from impurities, reject and deject demons and re-focus on self righteousness, justice, truth, reality. Ramadan is the time to take responsibility, solve problems, fight corruptions, expose bad deeds and evil works and resolve to sacrifice for justice, truth and fairness and defend the poor and bring rights. That is the spirit of Ramadan. Ramadan is not about silence, hiding the truth and covering injustice. Ramadan is the spirit of courage, resolve, righteousness and determinations. As long as one speaks the truth, the facts and advance the right of the weak and defenseless and stands for justice that is the main spirit of Ramadan.

Those who fast with genuine dedication and commitment, those who struggle to conquer the self, those who fight to control their bodies and souls, those who give charity and those who exercise humility; those who fight for rights, justice and freedoms and defend the poor, those who fight greed and corruptions and those who fight fear and allow free speech they do experience a feeling of cleansing, of purification, which is difficult to describe, but profoundly rewarding, exciting and tangible.
