7. The Ace Club would like to wish everyone a Happy Ramadan! Did you know Ramadan started on March 1st? Ramadan is a holy month in Islam where Muslims fast from sunrise to sunset. It’s a very significant part of their faith, as it serves as a time for spiritual reflection, increased prayer, and acts of charity. The focus surrounding fasting is a reminder to all Muslims of the suffering that those less fortunate have to endure every day and encourages them to be more compassionate and charitable. Ramadan fosters community building through prayer and meals, a time for forgiveness and to make amends, and lastly is considered a highly virtuous act, as Muslims believe it brings blessings and rewards from God. So Once Again, Ramadan Mubarak lions!
