Come and join us to celebrate this special event with our Muslim community at Stanford. Eid al-Fitr marks the end of Ramadan and the celebration of community and friendship. We will have great food, good music and people from around the world to mark this important religious holiday.

Ramadan at Stanford

Ramadan is the holiest month in the Islamic calendar in which Muslims from all walks of life will fast from dawn to sunset. This means abstaining from all food and drink throughout the day. Muslims also exert every effort to become more spiritual in daily life, including giving to charity, personal reflection, and prayers.
