Which fasting practice lasts from 6:00 am to midnight for 30 days?

• A. Ramadan
• B. Catholic Lent
• C. Buddhist Dietary Restrictions
• D. American Indian Food Customs

Answer: (A)

Ramadan is a month-long fasting practice in Islam, during which Muslims fast every day for about 29 or 30 days, abstaining from food and drink from dawn until sunset and breaking the fast with the evening meal after sunset. The exact daily hours depend on local sunrise and sunset, so the clock time can vary by location, but the pattern is a single month of daylight fasting. The other options don’t describe a formal, month-long daylight fasting period: Lent lasts about 40 days and isn’t defined by a strict daily fasting window; Buddhist dietary rules vary by tradition and aren’t tied to a 30-day cycle; American Indian Food Customs refer to diverse cultural practices rather than a specific 30-day fasting observance.
