The President's Committee on Religion, Spirituality and Nonreligious Diversity presents the weekly global observance information for the week of Oct. 18-24.

Oct. 18 Mawlid an-Nabi — Islamic commemoration of the birthday of the prophet Muhammad, founder of Islam, in about 570 C.E. The prophet's teachings are read and religious meetings held.

Oct. 19 Birth of the Bab — Baha’i Baha’i honoring the founder of the Babi religion, the forerunner to Baha’u’llah and the Baha’i faith.

The president's committee welcomes those of all global faith, spiritual and nonreligious worldview commitments.
