Ramadan is said to have been an important and holy month for Arabs long before the advent of Islam; in this month, local feuds and warring would stop as a period of uninterrupted peace was observed during which the more pious would retreat to temples, caves and other spaces to meditate. According to Islamic tradition, Ramadan was also the month when God revealed the scriptures to Abraham; the Torah to Moses; the Psalms to David and the Gospel to Jesus. Ramadan Mubarek to all those observing.
