SUMMARY:Canadian Islamic History Month
DESCRIPTION:The federal government launched the first Canadian Islamic History Month in October 2007. In addition to celebrating the longstanding and widespread contributions of Muslim communities to all areas of Canadian society\, the month aims to expand knowledge of the history of Islam within a Canadian context and to deepen understanding of the cultural diversity of local Muslim communities. It also urges nationwide conversations about Islamophobia\, its impacts at an individual and community level\, and actions needed to address Islamophobia in all its forms. Communities of all faiths and backgrounds are encouraged to engage in dialogue about productive strategies to address inclusion and belonging of Muslim communities in Canada. \nEach October\, Ontario additionally marks Islamic Heritage Month\, which since 2017 has been celebrated to mark the contributions of Muslim communities to Ontario’s history and society. A commitment to denounce and oppose Islamophobia is similarly contained in this provincial act\, which emphasizes the importance of reflection and learning to reach\, in its words\, a “new understanding.” \nStatement by Minister Khera on Canadian Islamic History Month \nBill 38\, An Act to Proclaim the month of October Islamic Heritage Month [PDF] \n

SUMMARY:Sukkot
DESCRIPTION:Sukkot\, also known as the Feast of Tabernacles or the Feast of Ingathering\, is a biblical Jewish holiday celebrated each year on the 15th day of Tishrei\, the first month of the year in the Jewish calendar. Sukkot is one of the three biblically based pilgrimage holidays known as the “shalosh regalim.” \nSukkot commemorates the forty-year period during which the Jewish people wandered in the desert\, living in temporary shelters. Sukkot is also commemorated as a harvest festival\, marking the end of the agricultural year. \nIn 2024\, Sukkot will begin at sunset on October 16 and end on the evening of October 18. The two holidays of Shemini Atzeret and Simchat Torah mark the conclusion of Sukkot. \nCommon greetings: “Happy Sukkot” or “Chag Sameach” (Happy Holiday) \nReligious and cultural days\nStudent Life has compiled a list of significant religious and cultural days. \nExplore the list to learn more about the holidays of different faith and ethnic groups\, when they are celebrated and how to greet or acknowledge those who observe. \nFor students: Accommodations for Religious Observances \nVisit the Office of the Vice Provost Students website and learn more about Religious Accommodations.  It is the policy of the University of Toronto to work with students who observe religious days other than those already accommodated by current scheduling and statutory holidays.
