Hedaya Center Planning Sharing Ramadan Dinner
The Hedaya Islamic Center in Newtown invites the public to join the annual Sharing Ramadan Dinner on Sunday, March 26, at 6 pm, at Edmond Town Hall, 45 Main Street.
Note: This event was originally announced as starting at 5 pm. The new start time was announced by organizers on March 18.
During the month of Ramadan, Muslims around the world fast from the time of Fajr (the morning prayer) until the time of Maghrib (the prayer at sunset). At the time of sunset, Muslims break their fast, and that dinner meal is known as Iftar.
The March 26 event will begin with a program in the Alexandria Room about Ramadan. Prayer and dinner will then follow in the gym.
Organizers invite all to break bread with them and meet members of the Mt Pleasant Road-based community, as diverse as the world around it.
Reservations are requested, and can be done via email to hedayacenter@gmail.com.
