London (Sunatimes) UK’s Prime Minister, David Cameron, has sent his best wishes to all Muslim communities in Britain and around the world at the start of the month of Ramadan.

In a press release, Mr Cameron said Ramadan is a time to remind people their duties and responsibilities and the importance of charity.

The premier urged Muslims all over the world to put aside thoughts of themselves, and think of others during this month of Ramadan.

The Prime Minister noted the terrible scenes of famine and suffering in the Horn of Africa, saying it reminds them of their duties and responsibilities to those beyond their shores.

Mr Cameron said the importance of charity at this time is clear and he is proud of many different communities in the United Kingdom continuing to come together to support millions of people who are in desperate need.
