Ramadan is the holiest month of the year for Muslims and it commemorates the time when Allah began revealing the Quran, the holy book of Islam, to Muhammed. Now Ramadan is a time for fasting, prayer, and forgiveness--a month long celebration in which no food can be eaten during the day. Before dawn, Hakeem and his family gather together for Suhur, an early meal to give them the energy they need to fast throughout the day. Color illustrations accompany the text. minimize
