Israel’s brutal assault on Gaza has made it incredibly difficult for many Muslims to celebrate Ramadan this year. In place of cloistered ritual, we must redouble our efforts to win a cease-fire and an end to the occupation of Palestine.
For over a millennium, Muslims have used hunger as a biological reminder of the need for human solidarity during the holiday of Ramadan. That solidarity is key to building the kind of movement that can win a better world for Muslims and everyone else.
