East Texas Muslims Discuss Important Holiday

Staff Writer

“It's a way to try and get closer to the religion,” recent Robert E. Lee graduate, Suna Burghul, 18, said. “Some people think you starve yourself all day, but it's a time to reflect. It's a test.”

I like that we have such a large and diverse Muslim culture in this area. Lots of professionals who are very involved in our local community. It's nice.
