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.
