Ramadan began at sundown on Feb. 28 and will end at sundown on March 29.

The evening break of the fast is called 鈥渋far.鈥 The Kent State Muslim Students鈥 Association invited everyone to join them at their Ramadan Fastathon on March 24  in the Kent Student Center Ballroom for ifar, with delicious foods, henna tattoos and dhujr bead-making.
