Ramadan is the ninth month on the Islamic calendar when millions of Muslims worldwide fast from sunrise to sunset. Ramadan, which changes each year depending on the moon, began this year on August 1. The breaking of the fast each day is called the Iftar, when families and communities gather to feast together. The meal starts with the eating of a single date, a tradition that originated with the Prophet Muhammad.
