Observance of the holy month of Ramadan 2023 began Thursday millions of Muslims around the world, including Chicago and the greater Chicag oarea.
"Ramadan is a giving month," said Faten Salameh, case manager at Islamic Circle of North America. "It's a self-discipline month, it's to be more humble, to be more giving."
On the Northwest Side Thursday, the ICNA fed more than 250 people at a food pantry, and plan to serve even more on Saturday. The line of people stretched down the block on Devon, demonstrating the need for the food pantry's services. They do these giveaways weekly, but with Ramadan's beginning, the charity is even more important.
