Wishing all of our Sisters and Brothers of the faith A Blessed Ramadan on behalf of the local Equity Committee and Executive
Ramadan is the ninth month in the Muslim lunar calendar. Healthy adult Muslims fast in Ramadan from dawn until dusk. This includes abstaining from drinking, eating, immoral acts and anger. Other acts of worship such as prayer, reading the Quran and charity are also encouraged during the holy month.
Muslims also recognize the Quran was revealed in Ramadan.
