Ramadan Mubarak! Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic year and it’s a time when Muslims around the world fast from before sunrise to sunset. It’s a special month that involves lots of prayer, visits to the masjid or mosque, giving of charity, good deeds, and often delicious food. It culminates in Eid-ul-Fitr, which is the celebration afterwards. This year, Ramadan takes place from Friday, February 28 to Saturday, March 29.
