⭐️ The Islamic tradition of Ramadan begins this week in the 9th month of the Muslim calendar and lasts for a month. This is followed by a celebration called ‘Eid al- fitr’. During Ramadan, Muslims fast during the day. Fasting is one of the five pillars of Islam and means not eating or drinking. Eid is a time of celebration to mark the end of Ramadan. Muslims may decorate their hands with beautiful henna at this time. Can you design your own henna pattern? What else can you find out about Ramadan and Eid?
