Ramadan Mubarak

Following the return to play, England Hockey is keen for as many people as possible to pick up a stick and enjoy being back playing.

Ramadan is the Holiest month for Muslims, representing when the Quran was first revealed to the Prophet Mohammad.  During the month of Ramadan, all Muslims are expected to fast (no food or

drink) from sunrise to sunset each day for 30 days. The elderly, children, ill and pregnant Muslims are exempt.  The timing each year moves based on the lunar calendar. In 2021, 13 April is

the likely start date for Ramadan.

With the start of Ramadan, we would encourage all clubs to speak to any members celebrating and establish if any additional support is required during this time, it may not be, but it is

always good to ask!

England Hockey would like to thank Christine Dalby-Ali, Sajjad Rashid and Abu Saahil for supporting with this article and videos.
