Ramadan Kareem!

Posted on Aug 20 in Siteby ShanMasalaPrint

From all your friends at Hungry Muslim, we wish you a wonderful & successful Ramadan!

During the blessed month of Ramadan, Muslims all over the world abstain from food, drink, and other physical needs during the daylight hours. As a time to purify the soul, refocus attention on God, and practice self-sacrifice, Ramadan is much more than just not eating and drinking. Muslims are called upon to use this month to re-evaluate their lives in light of Islamic guidance. We are to make peace with those who have wronged us, strengthen ties with family and friends, do away with bad habits — essentially to clean up our lives, our thoughts, and our feelings. The Arabic word for “fasting” (sawm) literally means “to refrain” – and it means not only refraining from food and drink, but from evil actions, thoughts, and words. As you can imagine, we aren’t going to be updating the site as much and will be delaying the launch until mid October!
