A mosque is silhouetted against the evening twilight near Balad, Iraq. Muslims began their Ramadan observance the evening of Aug. 11. Muslims believe Ramadan to be an auspicious month for the revelations of God to humankind, being the month in which the first verses of the Qur'an were revealed to the Prophet Muhammad. Two things set this time apart for the Muslim faith: fasting and prayer. U.S. Army photo by Staff Sgt. Timothy Sander
