Ramadan 2017 starts Friday evening May 26 and is expected to end on June 24. We are now receiving wishes from friends for a blessed Ramadan but it is too simple to wish blessings while only days earlier, May 22, the 22 year-old Salman Abedi [Salmān ʿĀbidī] blew himself up just after an Ariana Grande concert, causing the death of 22 people. Over 59 others were badly wounded. Ariana Grande is particularly popular among teenage girls, and thus many of the victims were teenage girls. Among the victims were also children. The youngest, Saffie, was only eight years old.
