The Arabian term for fasting during Ramzaan is Som that is most common in Central Arab erad lands for taking fasts.
It is genrally a word that refers 'peace' which is the trade mark of fasting and has it's own virtual influence for rudimentary islamic culture specially in the Arab consent.
Historians consider the mention of such word in 'Niamat-Al-Hasra' that is the general traveld ictionary of people who prefer trade balances during the month of fasting and hence believe that such term has it's own cultural methodology in contemporary era.
During the early modern times, Islamic people who were convinced of desert settlements and extention around Dubai mentioned this word in great modification and have great respect for it but now it's concept has become conservative.
Further in present time people of dubai and Central Arab region like to familiarise people coming for travel and touring purposes about this term where they mention value of 'pasifist' terms in holy Islamic culture and likes to mention it for cultural presentation.
However it is not common term and is used with great respect, equal furver and people of Arab belonging to Islamic customs use it with very cautious preference when they are asked and feel joyous to explain it's virtual richness as a holy term indeed.
Speaking of common term for fasting in Islam though, Mostly people use 'Roza' for fasting which is a persian word and has it's own value for the persian islamic galore from the past.
Used as prior word from river of Auxus to Transauxiana in late middle ages, Roza is a word that genraly connects hearts and it is a common habit to use it as a term for fasting amongst people belonging to Islam to make sure that people do come to tact when it comes to fasting during the holy month.
Yet it is not an issue for any culture of muslem group whether they use 'Som or 'Roza' and only regional habits of the terms differ from each other in approach and at the least common terms both have their own ritual understanding which islamic people very clearly understanding in their virtual lifestyle.
However Som is more popular in Saudi Arabia and Iraq with influence of Sunni groups who claim themselves closer to the conservativ customs and express deepness of closer historic value.
Though the Shiya groups of Kashmir, Salahar and Utkhaym in Uzbekistan also use this word while mentioning the rich cultural heritage and they use it with more caution while asked and explain it's value as a term for fasting being a pride for sure in context of Arabic speech.
Although the Muslem groups living in London, Antwerp and Burn are also familiar, they consider it of the past philanthrophy and consider it to a historic term that has it's certain Arabic influence and yet must be respected in it's ultimate use and preference.
As far Fasting is concerned in islam that is certainly connected with ritual process as it is in all other religions.
Generally fasting is decided, considered or announced on the basis of calendar of moon that is closer in study in this religion.
To decide fasting, a basic ceremony to begin has to be attended by those who take fasts where they are informed of key dates, what methods they shall apply and weather conditions with use of water are also measured for right methods in practice.
Ultimately whether Som or roza, they are two words that are closely assured and Som is more conservative closer to original islamic land of Arabia, it has a unique pattern and it is not different in practice for social virtues.
It is a term of historic pride, joy to have fasts, and under it's use of term the practices are same and only the method of lingual priority is unique that help it provide further respect in Arabian consent.
By all means It is not big deal as Som is restrictive in use and people prefer term like 'Roza' but if it is discussed around Islamic group then as a term in use it must be preserved and by doing that ultimately shall help in more riching of global islamic speaking customs for which it's use in application must be settled from Arabia to the world at large...
