Celebrating Islamic Heritage Month
Muslims fast for 30 days every year in the month of Ramadan. It is one of the five
pillars of Islam. Muslims don't eat or drink from sunrise to sunset to experience
what it feels like to be poor and hungry, and to focus on self-control in order to
be a better person. Once the month is over Muslims celebrate with family and
friends for up to three days. This celebration is called Eid-al-Fitr.

Celebrating Islamic Heritage Month
Many of you have heard of the schoolgirl, Malala Yousafzai. From the young age
of 11, she was involved in the struggle for girls' education in Northern Pakistan.
This brave young girl survived an attack by those who didn't support education
of girls. Malala used this difficult experience to champion education rights for
all girls around the world. She won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2014 at the age of
17. She is now the youngest Nobel Prize laureate, and has been named one of
Time magazine's “100 Most Influential People in the World” - for three years in
a row!
