The aim of this article is to clarify Nedžad Grabus' claim that Muslims in Slovenia are Ramadan Muslims. The article shows how many Muslims in Slovenia choose to fast and presents the celebration of Ramadan Bayram in Slovenia. It also highlights the problem of consumerism during Ramadan, which helps to raise awareness of the holiday while distancing it from its very essence.
