    Sahur

    Suhoor is an Islamic term referring to the meal consumed early in the morning by Muslims before fasting, sawm, before sun down during the Islamic month of Ramadan. The meal is eaten before fajr prayer, or dawn. - Wikipedia

    Since some traditional food covers/lids are made from straws so it's kinda resembles Byakuren's hat, so yeah!
    also, Happy Ramadhan to all Muslims!

    So last year he did a Breaking fast comic and this year is about Sahur. Nice to see more Ramadan stuff on Touhou.

    >5:30AM

    Isn't it like too late to Sahur already?

    That depends actually whether you prepare new food for Sahur or just eat the leftovers from breaking fast, if it's the leftovers, then you have time, if it's the former though..

    In West Malaysia this Ramadan, fajr is somewhere between 5:50 to 6:00 AM local time, so there is still time.

    Sure. Subuh starts around 5:50 to 6:00 AM. But Imsak usually starts around half an hour before Subuh. So Imsak usually around 5:30AM which indicates that you can't eat anymore.
