Why iftar




















Many people skip Suhoor however, this is not favoured by Allah SWT because those who skip Suhoor find it difficult to complete their fast and end up breaking it.

Suhoor is the right time to consume a meal and fill yourself adequately so that you can fast throughout the day. Performing Iftar is an act that brings blessings for Muslims.

Some people make arrangements for Iftar for others such as in a mosque. This is a great act of kindness and one that is greatly favoured by Allah SWT. It is said that Allah SWT will open the gates of forgiveness for those who help fast observers in acquiring adequate Iftar to break their fast at this time.

Ramadan teaches us a great number of things; patience, piety and discipline are just a few to name. Muslims should strive to take advantage of the opportunity Ramadan brings. Indonesia Angklung Brisbane did an unforgettable performance of Somewhere Over the Rainbow using Angklungs, an Indonesian bamboo musical instrument. Attending the Iftar dinner helped me understand food is essential for religious, spiritual and cultural health. When cultural foods are not available or accessible, people are unable fully embrace their cultural celebrations.

On the other hand, when culture foods are eaten, it connects people spiritually and socially to create new and strong bonds of family, friendship and community.

The music performances which featured an Australian theme showed how culture can connect people and places to create a space of diversity and belonging. The Connecting with Cultural Foods project works with community members that understand the significance of finding and accessing cultural foods. We want to highlight how people access their cultural foods in South East Queensland.

We plan to ask community members to help design tools that connect people with their cultural foods. Iftar, then, marks the end of each day's fast and often celebrates and brings together the community. Ramadan also emphasizes a renewed committment to generosity and charity, and iftar is connected to that as well.

Providing food for others to break their fast is considered an important part of observance; many Muslims across the world help provide iftar meals to the poor and in-need through communities and mosques. Muslims traditionally first break the fast with dates and either water or a yogurt drink.

After the formal breaking of the fast, they pause for the Maghrib prayer one of the five daily prayers required of all Muslims. They then have a full-course meal, consisting of soup, salad, appetizers and main dishes. In some cultures, the full-course meal is delayed into later in the evening or even early morning.

Traditional foods vary by country, although all the food is halal , as it is for Muslims year-round. Iftar is very much a social event, involving family and community members. It is common for people to host others for dinner, or gather as a community for a potluck.

It is also common for people to invite and share food with those less fortunate. The spiritual reward for charitable giving is considered to be especially significant during Ramadan. For health reasons, Muslims are advised not to over-eat during iftar or at any other time and are adviced to follow other health tips during Ramadan. Prior to Ramadan, a Muslim should always consult with a doctor about the safety of fasting in individual health circumstances.

One must always take care to get the nutrients, hydration, and rest that you need. It is strongly encouraged that Muslims observing Ramadan eat a filling, healthy meal at the start of the day - for suhoor - in order to provide the necessary energy and nutrition to get through the day's fast until iftar. While some may skip suhoor as many people of all backgrounds occasionally skip morning breakfast , this is discouraged, as it makes it more difficult to complete the day's fast, which is more important.
