With Ramadan set to end the day the World Cup begins, how are Muslim footballers preparing for the tournament when fasting?
For Muslims around the world, Ramadan is a month dedicated for fasting and abstaining from eating and drinking between sunset and sunrise. It is a month where Muslims are able to purify both their body and soul and practice self-discipline.
Liverpool's Mohamed Salah has won the hearts of the Anfield faithful through his affable nature, prolific goal-scoring ability and the way that he shows his love and respect for his religion openly.
The Liverpool faithful have already written their own chant in honour of the Egyptian – affectionately titled "I'll be Muslim, too" – and Salah's trademark celebration of kneeling down onto the pitch immediately after scoring and pointing up at the sky in shahadah is as memorable as it gets.
