Before it officially opened in 2010, the Burj Khalifa was called the Burj Dubai, a tall building located in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. It is famous for being the tallest building in the world. With a total height of 829.8 meters and a roof height of 828 meters, the Burj Khalifa has held the title of the tallest building and structure in the world since surpassing Taipei 101 in 2009.
Muslims around the world observe Ramadan, the ninth month of the Islamic calendar, as a period of fasting, prayer, self-reflection, and community. Suhur is the term used for the pre-dawn meal, while iftar is the term used for the evening meal that breaks the fast.
Due to its height, individuals located on the top floors of the Burj Khalifa have to wait longer than those on the lower floors to break their fast. Since sunset occurs later on the upper levels compared to the lower floors, residents on higher floors must wait a few extra minutes before they can break their fast.
“Burj Khalifa is nearly one kilometer (0.6 miles) tall, which means people on higher floors can still see the sun even after it has set at ground level,” explained Ahmed Abdul Aziz al-Haddad.Since they can see the sun for an additional three minutes compared to those on the ground, individuals above the 150th level have to wait before breaking their fast. The Burj Khalifa has a total of 160 residential floors.
