Iftar Table in Africa

For those who want to give an iftar meal in Africa, we share the spiritual atmosphere and blessing of Ramadan with orphanages and poor villages.

Every evening we set up communal iftar tables joined by hundreds of children and families in need.

The preparation, the table and the prayers of the iftar meal you give are recorded in a personal video and sent to you via WhatsApp.

The prayers said at the orphans’ tables create an unforgettable bond of brotherhood in hearts.

The Virtue of Giving Iftar to a Fasting Person

It is reported in a hadith that whoever gives iftar to a fasting person receives a reward equal to the fasting person’s, without anything being deducted from the faster’s reward. Feeding orphans, madrasa students and poor families at iftar in Ramadan is one of the finest examples of this virtue.

Who Is the Iftar Table Set For in Africa?

Children living in orphanages, madrasa students and poor village families are invited to our tables. These tables, where hundreds of people break their fast together every evening, carry the spirit of sharing of Ramadan to the places in Africa where it is needed most.
