HAJJ

Islam (Submission in English) has two major religious celebrations during the Islamic lunar year. The first occurs during the 9th lunar Islamic month, Ramadan, the Islamic month during which Muslims (submitters to the One God) fast daily from dawn to sunset as part of an effort towards self-purification and betterment. At the end of Ramadan , traditional Muslims observe a "traditional, not a religious" celebration, known as Eid ul-Fitr (Festival of Breaking the Fast).
