Mubarak to all fellow muslims, and non-muslims alike, at DKos. For those muslims who adhere to the astronomical hijri calendar and not upon moonsighting,
today is the first fast.
O Allah! This is the month of Ramadan in which descended the Qur'an as a guide to mankind and a criterion to separate truth from falsehood. O Allah! Bless us in the month of Ramadan, and give us Your help and accept our ibadat, for You have power over all things.
I will also be posting a few articles about Ramadan in the spirit of outreach over at
Dean's World. The first entry discusses the
mechanics of the fast.
