Ramadan dates 2013

The Innovative Travel Co. advises the month of Ramadan will start on July 9 and continue through to Wednesday August 7, 2013.
The start of the month of fasting for Muslims begins on the first sighting, with the naked eye, of the new moon. During Ramadan Muslims abstain from food, drink and other physical needs during the daylight hours. Ramadan is a time to purify the soul, practice self-sacrifice and re-evaluate  life, strengthen ties with family and friends and do away with bad habits. Visitors are welcomed in Muslim countries during Ramadan and advised on the ways of respecting the customs.
