Iftaar in Makkah and Madinah
The time for breaking fast at sunset during Ramadan is a unique moment for Muslims across the world. For people to break their fasts in the Grand Mosque in Makkah and the Prophet’s Mosque in Madinah is an even more blessed and surreal experience.
For many people, sharing a snack with fellow Muslims is an exhilarating experience. During iftar in the two holy cities, people often sit with strangers of different nationalities and languages, and with whom they only share one thing in common — that they are fasting in obedience to Allah. In fact, many say the experience helps them develop an ethos of brotherhood.
What makes these gatherings special in month of Ramadan, which for many is an once-in-a- lifetime experience, is the variety of people from different cultures and nationalities that gather in the holy cities. Most of the food that is on offer in the holy mosques is donated by local people, who also bring along local Saudi dishes. It is remarkable to see these people busily laying tablecloths, setting cups, distributing coffee, tea and dates and often delaying their own iftar to ensure visitors to the holy mosques are at ease and comfort.
