All but the rocket after 7pm can lah ok. ahahahaha!

To my non-muslim readers, a quick info about Ramadan (^^,)

Ramadan is one of the holy months in the Islamic calendar. Fasting in the month of Ramadan is one of the five pillars of Islam. The month is spent by Muslims fasting during the daylight hours from dawn (around 5:30am++) to sunset (around 7:00pm++). Fasting during this month is often thought to figuratively burn away all sins. Muslims believe that the Qur'an was sent down to the earth during this month. Furthermore, Prophet Muhammad told his followers that the gates of Heaven would be open all the month and the gates of Hell would be closed. The first day of the next month (Syawal) is spent in celebrations of triumph and is observed as the ‘Festival of Breaking Fast’ or `Eid ul-Fitr (Simply its - Hari Raya AidilFitri).
