Ramadan Mubarak to our UNMC students, faculty, and staff!
To support members of our community who are observing Ramadan through fasting and prayer, the library offers the following resources:
- Prayer Spaces: Reflection rooms equipped with a Qibla and prayer mats are available for students, faculty, and staff.
- Iftar Dates: Dates are available on Level 6 near the entrance for those breaking their fast at sunset.
What is Ramadan?
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar and a sacred time of fasting (Sawm), prayer, reflection, and community. Fasting during Ramadan is one of the Five Pillars of Islam, alongside faith (Shahada), prayer (Salah), charity (Zakat), and pilgrimage to Mecca (Hajj).
We wish all those observing Ramadan a peaceful and meaningful month.
