Ramadan 2023

Ramadan is considered one of the holiest months in the Islamic religion, as it is a time of intense spiritual rejuvenation with a heightened focus on devotion. This year, Ramadan will start on March 22 and will last until April 22. During this time, Muslims will commemorate the revelation of the Qur’an by spending extra time reading the Qur’an and performing special prayers. Muslims will also fast from pre-dawn to sunset for all 30 days of Ramadan. This helps bring them closer to God and cultivate self-control, gratitude, and compassion for those less fortunate. Those unable to fast, such as pregnant or nursing women, sick or older people, and children, are exempt from fasting.
