Ramadan Mubarak
This year the Islamic holy month of Ramadan takes place from 1 - 30 March and many students and staff will be fasting.
Ramadan remembers the month the Qur’an (the Muslim holy book) was first revealed to the Prophet Muhammad. It’s a time for reflection, where Muslims refrain from eating and drinking during daylight hours, and focus on prayer, purification and charitable acts. The Muslim Council of Britain have a Ramadan 2025 guide and resources you can download that includes key information for those observing and those who are interested in learning more about the holy month. You can also visit the East London Mosque website to download their 2025 Ramadan Timetable.
