It is a day of fast, which the ladies keep for the welfare and long life of their husbands and the mother-in –laws give sargi to their daughter-in-laws to eat at drawn before the day comes out. The ladies get up early in the morning and eat Sargi and drink whatever they like until the last star is seen before drawn.
