Motion of Congratulations - Ramadan

Moved by: Councillor Hassan

Seconded by: Mayor Paterson

• That Kingston City Council extends its heartfelt congratulations to all Kingstonians celebrating Ramadan this year. As the holiest month in the Islamic calendar, Ramadan is a time for reflection and spiritual growth. During this sacred month, Muslims fast from sunrise to sunset, engage in prayer, and strive for a closer connection with their faith. This year, Ramadan is predicted to begin on March 1 and conclude on March 30 with Eid celebrations. Signified through devotion, unity, and generosity, this is a sacred time for individuals and families to come together. To all celebrating, we wish you a joyous Ramadan, one that is filled with faith, love, and enlightenment.
