Navruz is one of the most important holidays in Uzbekistan. Translated from Farsi, Navruz means “the new day”. 21st of March is the day of the vernal equinox and the holiday celebrates the beginning of the year.
Navruz was celebrated in Khorasan (province of Ancient Persia) more than three thousand years ago and by the time it started to be celebrated in Central Asia as well. A traditional dish of Navruz is sumalak. It is made of germinated wheat. Women gather around the pot and cook sumalak the whole night singing traditional songs. When the dish is ready in the morning it is shared with neighbours and relatives. Ramadan Hayit is a day of moral and spiritual purification. The holiday starts after the Islamic fasting Ruza that lasts for 30 days. It is the fasting to purify the soul. According to fasting month, Ruza or Ramadan from sunrise to sunset Muslims are not allowed to eat and drink, they treat politely and avoid bad thoughts.
All religious holidays start with morning prayer Hayit-namaz. Ramadan Hayit lasts for three days.
