FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PR- 271-12 July 20, 2012 MAYOR MICHAEL R. BLOOMBERG WISHES NEW YORKERS A RAMADAN MUBARAK “The start of Ramadan marks the beginning of the holiest month in the Islamic calendar, and it’s a time of fasting, prayer and deep reflection for Muslims across the five boroughs. Our city’s vibrant and growing Muslim community is a significant part of the cultural and religious diversity that makes New York the world’s greatest city. As Muslims throughout our city – and across the world – come together with family, friends and relatives, I hope this festive month brings peace and happiness to everyone who is celebrating. Ramadan Mubarak.” MEDIA CONTACT: Stu Loeser / Kamran Mumtaz (212) 788-2958 STAY CONNECTED Twitter YouTube Flickr |
