Ramadan is one of the 12 months of the Islamic year. It is particularly dedicated to fasting, prayer, reading of the Quran, and acts of charity (obviously we see that our Lent and Ramadan have many similarities). Those Muslims who can, fast from food and water from sun-up to sun-down. (Remember that before whining about the rules of fast and abstinence during Lent.) From sun-down to sun-up, they can eat as they wish.
    
Let us pray for our Muslim brothers and sisters as they celebrate this important season of Ramadan.
