    9/01/2008 - 9/29/2008Ramadan

    Egypt
    Ramadan is the Muslim festival of fasting, the most important festival in the Islamic calendar, and the celebrations in Egypt are particularly special. The arrival of the crescent moon in the night sky signals the start of 30 days when Muslims do not eat, drink or smoke during the day; all meals are consumed before sunrise and after sunset. Consequently, Cairo's Islamic cafes and coffee shops throng with activity each evening. Eid al-Fitr marks the end of the fasting and is a great celebration, where it is common to get together with friends and families for a feast
