Ramadan, one of the holiest months of the year for Muslims, is expected to begin at sundown on Friday, February 28 (based on the official sighting of the moon) and conclude on or about March 31. Ramadan Mubarak (pronounced “Mu-ba-rack”) is a greeting that means congratulations on the arrival of the holy month. Ramadan Kareem can also be used as a greeting and literally means “Generous Ramadan.”

We in the Center for Spiritual Life wish all of our Lewis & Clark Muslim community Ramadan Mubarak this week as Muslims enter this month of devotion and fasting.

Those of us in the Center for Spiritual Life appreciate each of you and your student groups and activities, and we celebrate the interconnectedness and interdependence of our community.
