Crescent Moon button

Description

I was asked by a friend why we didn’t have a button representing the celebration of Ramadan. I asked her what would be appropriate and this crescent moon was her suggestion.

Peace comes from understanding we live in a world of diverse cultures and religions.  “Sighting the moon is a communal enterprise, and many Muslims especially in warmer climes will venture into the open as darkness begins to fall to see if they can spot the sliver in the sky that everyone is waiting for.  When it marks the beginning of Ramadan it resonates with community and togetherness.”  (http://www.ogilvynoor.com/index.php/ramadan-and-insights-into-the-meaning-of-crescent-moons-for-muslims/#.UaU7CWT73Z
