She was around 10 minutes into her journey when she heard Azaan playing on the driver's phone and wondered whether he had done iftar yet. "Did you break your fast yet?" she inquired, to which the driver replied, "Yes, I did on the go because I had a rental duty." Singh did not waste any time in asking him if he wanted to offer Namaaz. He then inquired if he could. The car was then parked on the side of the road, and she invited him to offer his Namaaz in the back seat while she sat in the front.

According to Singh's post, "I grabbed an Uber from the airport, and Azaan began playing on the driver's phone after around 10 minutes... I inquired, "Iftar kiya apne?" "Haan aaj road per hi ho gaya kyuki rental duty thi," he replied. "Do you want to pay Namaaz?" I asked again, and he replied, "Can I?" We parked the car on the side of the road so that he could pray in the back seat while I sat in the front. "That's the sort of India my parents taught me about," she continued.

The moon was spotted in India on April 2 after 30 days of Shaban, and Muslims in the country began their Rozas (fasts) the next day, on April 3. Salah, also known as Namaaz or salat, is a type of Muslim prayer. On May 2nd, Muslims will break their fast with the sighting of a new moon in the evening on the last day of Ramadan, marking the conclusion of the holy month of Ramadan.
