First Day of Ramadan
Today is the first day of Ramadan - the holy month for Muslims all over the world. During this month, Muslims fast throughout the day time, avoiding water and food in an effort to spiritually cleanse themselves. As a practicing Muslim, I am currently fasting, and intend to each day for the rest of Ramadan. Today, the fasting started at 5:40am and is scheduled to end around 7:52pm.
