WILLIAMS' STATEMENT ON THE BEGINNING OF RAMADAN

 

"Ramadan Mubarak to the Muslim community across New York preparing to begin the holy month of spiritual fasting, charity, and prayer. This month of fast is a time for both self-reflection and shared solidarity as we work to improve our lives and serve our communities. 


"Ramadan reminds us to pursue peace and champion justice, including through the practice of zakat - doing what we can, with what we have, to support our neighbors as the physical, emotional, and economic devastation remains present in our city. Throughout this month and beyond, I pray that a sense of unity and common purpose perseveres.


“Wishing peace and blessings to all in this holy month.”
