The Easton Jamia Masjid Mosque at ‘The Big Iftar 2017’ in St Marks Road, Easton, Bristol, marking the end of the muslim holy month of Ramadan when muslims fast from dawn until sunset. It is believed this is the first time in the UK that the event includes a meal held in the street and shared with all communities including non-muslims. It is hosted by Easton Jamia Masjid with partners including Bristol4Muslims, we care foundation, Karam Kitchen, and aims to bring people from different backgrounds and cultures together to share good food and learn from each other. Ramadan is a month of sharing, hospitality, charity giving and creating new friendships, and the Big Iftar is a great way of achieving these goals while breaking down barriers that may exist within communities. Visitors were also given a grand tour to the newely refurbished mosque located in the heart of Easton. Picture credit : Simon Chapman/LNP
