At TriHealth, one of our core values is respect for all people, differences and spiritual heritage. It’s with this value in mind that we want to acknowledge the holy days of Ramadan and offer Ramadan Mubarak (Happy Ramadan) to our physicians, team members and community members who are observing Ramadan between Monday, April 12 and Wednesday, May 12. 

 

As the most sacred month of the year in Islamic culture, Ramadan is celebrated by followers of the Islam religion, which is the second-largest religion in the world with nearly 2 billion followers across the globe.

 

During the month-long observance, the weeks of spiritual introspection build toward Laylat al-Qadr, or the “Night of Power,” believed to be the holiest night of the year. This singular evening of worship marks the day when Muslims believe the angel Gabriel began giving the Prophet Muhammad revelations from Allah, or God.
