The English "Nujum Sports" website presented special gifts to a number of Muslim soccer players in England on the occasion of the month of Ramadan, with a special initiative aimed at supporting Muslim athletes in the blessed month.
The site, which aspires to see a world in which Muslim athletes thrive and realize their potential - as it identifies itself - last week offered players gift boxes containing rosary, perfume and other items associated with the month of Ramadan.
Last week @CambridgeUtdFC wanted to extend their hand of friendship to @CambCentMosque via the Nujum Ramadan Packs.

A number of English clubs participated in the Stars Sports initiative on their official pages on social networking sites, and published pictures of their players with the gift boxes they received, thanking them and some of the Muslim players for those involved in this idea.
