Sacramento Muslim leader says getting the COVID-19 vaccine will not break Ramadan fast

Millions of Muslims around the world are celebrating their second Ramadan during a pandemic. "The goal is to better connect with God and strengthen your spirituality and soul," explained Imam Amr Dabour of the Sacramento Area League of Associated Muslims (SALAM). "By fasting, we highlight spiritualities, we highlight the needs of our soul rather than the needs of our body." Fasting is a part of Ramadan tradition. Meaning nothing can enter the body between sunrise and sunset -- raising the question of whether getting the COVID-19 vaccine for the community could be delayed. See more in the video above.
