Pakistani Culture and Society

In Pakistan majority 97% are Muslims and the rest are Hindu, Christian and other.

In Islam they pray five times a day – at dawn, noon, afternoon, sunset, and evening.
Friday is the Muslim holy day.
During the holy month of Ramadan all Muslims must fast from dawn to dusk and are only permitted to work a limited hours per day. Fasting includes no eating, drinking, cigarette smoking.

The official language of Pakistan is Urdu. English is the second language generally used for Pakistani elite and most of the government ministries.

Urdu is closely related to Hindi but is written in an extended Arabic alphabet rather than in Devanagari. Urdu also has more loans from Arabic and Persian

Many other languages are spoken in Pakistan, including Punjabi Siraiki, Sindhi, Pashtu, Balochi, Hindko, Brahui, Burushaski, Balti, Khawar, Gujrati
