A gurdwara in UAE organised Iftar where people of different religions and over 30 nationalities broke the Muslim fast together on Friday.
To celebrate the holy month of Ramazan and support the Muslim community, Guru Nanak Darbar Gurdwara hosted 120 residents of over 30 nationalities in a multicultural setting.
As the call to maghreb (evening) prayers rang inside the gurdwara, Muslims broke their fast over water, dates and Indian dishes. Later, they offered prayers inside the gurdwara premises in Jebel Ali. They guests varied from Arabs, Ethiopians, Mexicans to Americans and Serbians.
“In a world that struggles with extremism, the best way out is through creating friendships among different faiths and nationalities. It is only through communication that we can overcome adversities,” said Kandhari.”It is a nice experience to enjoy happiness and friendliness of people around you from different faiths and nationalities. It is part of the charm of living in Dubai and adjusting to local customs,” said a visitor Mitchell Peeters, a UAE resident for four years.
