Ramadan this year starts Monday, August 31st. Every year it comes 11 days earlier because Muslims follow a lunar calendar. A lunar year is only 355 days long. So my Ramadan comes sometimes…

This is beautiful.

*Correction!  Ramadan this year starts on August 1st, not the 31st, as corrected by the Author.
