For those Muslim readers who have began fasting in various countries for the start of the ninth and holiest month in the Muslim calendar. Don’t you feel there’s no better time than to quit smoking during Ramadan?

Muslims in various countries began Ramadan at dawn on Sunday, Monday or yesterday, determined by sighting of the new moon. Muslims are supposed to abstain from smoking, eating, drinking, and other “sensual pleasures” from dawn until sunset during Ramadan.

Ramadan is an ideal opportunity for smokers to quit smoking not just during the day but permanently! You have already abstained from smoking for a good 12 hours. Think about it, you have already gone through 12 hours nicotine free. You don’t actually need additional help with other quit smoking program or product!

Do yourself a favour, you have already started your journey to being smoke free. If you ask me, there’s no better time than to quit smoking during Ramadan. You have already made it pass half the day nicotine free!
