Fasting Ramadan is one of the five pillars of Islam. During this one-month fasting period, Muslims are only allowed to eat a meal right after sunset (Iftar) and another light meal right before dawn (Sahur). On this holy month, it is also recommended for Muslims to perform a nightly prayer called At-Tarawih. Most Muslims do this prayer in a group in the Mosque. Most of the times, Muslims have more dinner invitations during Ramadan month than they have during the year. The poor and the needy are among the first to be invited to such dinners (Iftar). On September 20th 2008, Universal Foundation has been able to conduct an event of Ramadan dinner which was held on Al-Multazam Mosque.
