Actually, Ramadan is not a holiday. It is a holy month for Muslims where they fast from sunrise to sunset to see what it feels like to be poor. Also in ramadan, there is a special prayer at night called Taraweeh. After the month ends, Muslims have a holiday called Eid-ul-Fitr, where u are supposed to have fun, kind of like Christmas. They have another Eid on the tenth day of Hajj, to celebrate that Abraham didn't sacrifice his son.
