Event Details
God, in the second chapter of our Holy Book states: “O ye who believe! Fasting has been prescribed for you as it was prescribed to those before you, that ye may (learn) self-restraint” (2:183)
“Ramadan is the (month) in which was sent down the Quran, as a guide to mankind, also clear (Signs) for guidance and judgement (between right and wrong). So every one of you who is present (at his home) during the month should spend it in fasting…” (2:185)
Ramadan is a time when Muslims focus on the purification of their hearts, minds, and souls through prayer, self-reflection, and self-control. We take this holy month as a time to reevaluate our yesterday so that we may improve our tomorrow, with a renewed focus on spirituality, sharing, kindness, charity, forgiveness, and increased efforts to spread goodwill in all its forms with all of humanity.
Break bread with us. Join us at this year's Tampa Interfaith Iftar!
