Hawzah News Agency- The BBC reported that before each match it will be determined whether any player is fasting. If so, the game will be briefly paused at iftar time to allow them to break their fast.
The first such pause took place in April 2021 during a match between Leicester City and Crystal Palace.
The game was temporarily stopped to allow Leicester’s Wesley Fofana and Palace’s Cheikhou Kouyate to break their fast. The players consumed liquids and energy gels before play resumed.
Ramadan is a month centred on developing God-consciousness, self-discipline, and personal growth. From dawn to sunset, fast—not just from food and water, but from negative habits like gossip and impatience. It encourages believers to refrain from harmful behaviours and strive to become better people.
