SELE SEPET
The beginning and the end of Ramadan are made according to the calculation of the Moon in the sky. In the lunar account, the year is 354 days. When the moon is seen as a crescent in the sky, it looks like a thin-sided basket. Some Greeks, who were in the hands of trade at that time, watch the moon with baskets prepared in advance and in which candles are planted in order to attract the Muslim people and increase their shopping, and as soon as the moon is seen as a crescent, they say that Ramadan has started with these baskets this time and shouting as flood. They go around and inform the people. In the evening, which connects the 14th to the 15th of Ramadan, the moon in the sky takes the shape of a round ball.
This time, the upper part of the saddles in their hands are also closed, and the baskets that take the shape of a ball and that have candles in them are walked around shouting the saddle basket, the ball lamp, and the good news that Ramadan is halfway is given. The people have made it their custom to spend the night cheerfully and to celebrate it with fun, with the joy that the other half will pass more easily since half of it has passed.
