IFTAR NIGHTS

Dear Bloggy Friends.. 


Here I am posting my very first event.. It is such a pleasure to finally be putting my plans into action.. I initially thought of starting this event by 1st of august but then since its not very far from today.. and also it takes 2-3 days for me to get used to the fasting routine.. then I might end up not doing this event, and I am so sure, will keep postponing.. :)



Ramdhan is a blessed month for muslims and we cherish every moment of this month by offering prayers, reading the quran with the meaning, charity, and of course fasting.. in an effort to learn patience, humility, self-control and outgrow with empathy.. Purity of both thoughts and actions is important while fasting..


Fasting starts from dawn and goes until dusk.. Each day family gets together for the breaking-fast meal called the Iftar and typically we break the fast with dates.. and by minimal food and we go for the prayer.. then the family sits for an elaborate meal :) 

Now lets get to the event part..
