Ramadan Word Search
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic lunar calendar, when Muslims go without food and drink from dawn until sunset. The meal before first light is suhoor, and the fast is broken in the evening with iftar, often started with dates and water. Because the lunar year runs shorter than the solar one, the month arrives about eleven days earlier each time.
