Ramadan starts

The-Grand-Anwar-Mosque-MerkatoRamadan seems likely to technically start tonight at sunset – with the fasting beginning tomorrow (Mon 6th June) and lasting for a lunar month (however dates are taken from the sighting of the moon, so may vary). Eid al Fitr marks the end of the fast – expected to be on 5th July – with a big celebration and public holiday.

Tesfa Tours wishes all Muslims a peaceful and happy month of Ramadan.

For more information on Ramadan this article in the Independent newspaper is quite informative.
