In the question above I would like to know how many days of the prayer service this is, and as much information about the whole process as possible. I am writing a paper on the Muslum/Islam religion and had difficulity finding this information on this subject. I find this religion very interesting also. Thank-you

Hello,

In Ramadan there is religious service for the obligatory 5 daily prayers in the Mosque just like any other month. What is special and additional to the 5 daily prayers in Ramadan is the taraweeh prayers which are optional. Now this is exclusive to the month of Ramadan. Taraweeh are performed after the fifth obligatory prayer (called salat al-isha'a) which is at night. I try to attend the Taraweeh prayer because the Imam little by little recites the whole Quran with the congregation. Reciting the whole Quran is optional but holds great reward from Allah and is of spiritual benefit too.

Here's more info you might find useful:

I would be grateful to help you,

I believe you are referring Taraweeh, this is the additional prayers which happen during the month of Ramadan.

Here are some resources for your paper,
