If you\u2019re one of the many families fasting from sunrise until sunset, I certainly don\u2019t need to tell you how challenging it is this year with Ramadan falling during our longest days.<\/p>\n<p>I know that for many of you, fasting \u2013 as one of the essential pillars of Islam \u2013 is a chance to remember the daily struggles of the world\u2019s poorest and most vulnerable people. For me, it\u2019s that spirit that goes to the heart of what Islam is all about. It\u2019s that profound desire to look after other people. And it\u2019s that sense of doing all you can, collectively and individually, to make the world around you a more prosperous and peaceful place.<\/p>\n<p>So I want to thank you all for the valuable contribution you make, across British society and beyond, both at Ramadan and throughout the whole year.<\/p>\n<p class=\"last-child\">And to everyone celebrating the festival this month, Ramadan Mubarak.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Deputy Prime Minister has recorded a video message to wish everyone celebrating the festival &quot;Ramadan Mubarak&quot;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44318"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=44318"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44318\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=44318"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=44318"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=44318"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
