The two main branches of Islam, the Sunnis and Shiites, break their Ramadan fasts differently. Sunnis typically break their fast when the sun is no longer on the horizon, but the sky is still light. Shiites break their fast when the last ray of light has gone.
There are a number of other differences. For instance, some Shias have traditionally started Ramadan fasting a day after Sunnis. And Sunnis have an extra, optional prayer called taraweeh that they only say during Ramadan; Shias do not say taraweeh.
