Days-off for Ramadan holiday announced

Azerbaijan has announced days-off in connection with the Ramadan holiday.

Thus, July 28 and July 29 will be non-working days, Azerbaijani Cabinet of Ministers told Trend on July 14.

Ramadan plays an important role in Muslim's life. As fasting is observed during the month of Ramadan, it is called "Fasting of Ramadan". Ramadan is considered as the most merciful and holiest month of the year for Muslims.

In metaphoric sense, it is called "the Sultan of eleven months", because at one of the nights of this month, the holy Koran was revealed.

Ramadan conveys the sense of emotional enthusiasm and religious eagerness among Muslims. Ramadan highlights Muslim brotherhood and customs and brings about a special feeling of closeness.
