What is an Iftar?
An iftar is the meal that muslims end their fasts with at sunset during the month of Ramadan. It's a time for gratitude, community, and reflection.
Reviving a tradition from the early days of Wasat: A Ramadan potluck iftar with our community. Our earliest gatherings during our infancy were centered around community members bringing a home cooked dish. This year, we focused on Prophetic Foods, encouraging community to bring a dish that would incorporate foods referenced in the Quβran and hadiths.
We thank our teacher @zainab_fitforallah for the inspiration, guidance and education on all the benefits, not only for our physical health, but our spiritual health as well, as it was a great way to draw nearer to our Creator by celebrating his creation and following the example of the best of creation.
Sign up to bring a dish:

Wasat intends to host iftars throughout the month of Ramadan on Thursdays and Sundays. Find out more on our website: https://www.wearewasat.org/events.
