Iftar is one of the religious observances of Ramadan, and is often done as a community, with Muslim people gathering to break their fast together. The meal is taken just after the call to the Maghrib prayer, which is around sunset. Traditionally three dates are eaten to break the fast, in emulation of the Islamic prophet, Muhammad, who broke his fast in this manner, but this is not mandatory. Muslims believe that feeding someone iftar as a form of charity is very rewarding and that such was practised by Muhammad.

She was holding a sign that invited "Meet a Muslim" with some friends in downtown Chicago and handing out flowers and hand written letters downtown. I expressed my gratitude that she is a part of America.
I hope everyone is kind to her. There is room in this world, in this country, and in my neighborhood for people of all faiths. Hate has no home here.
Pretty boring for terrorists, as they did not blow up anybody. They just hung out with everyone else, only freaking out when Yusuf Islam (the artist formerly known as Cat Stevens) was performing. But I'm pretty sure they screamed just as loud when Ozzy came out on stage moments later.

A very complex conflict erupted in 1992-1995 between three ethnic groups (Serbs, Croats, and Muslims) that was first centered on whether Bosnia should stay in the Yugoslav Federation, or whether it should become independent. This later caused a genocide committed by Serbs against the Muslim Bosniaks. The main targets of this genocide were men and teenage boys and as a result many women lost their husbands and sons and many also faced rape and violence throughout the war.

We got a chance to pray Zhuhr in this beautiful mosque and it was lovely. I am amazed at the many colors of islam, it unites us beyond race, color and regions. There were few worshippers but that was mainly because it was a weekday.
