According to TGM Ramadan Global Survey 2023, an overwhelming majority of 98% believe that observing the holy month of Ramadan helps them become more disciplined and find the willpower to carry out their commitments. Such powerful sentiment is linked to Ramadan's many spiritual undertones, with around 70% of people polled reporting their intention to increase worship and charitable giving.
“This interweaving of personal sacrifice with altruism serves as a powerful sentiment that defines Ramadan's profound spiritual purpose overall.
