Add to Cart Add to Lightbox Download

Muslims throughout the world break their daily fast during the holy month of Ramadan by sharing the iftar, the evening meal celebrated just after sunset, often in community. The iftar also demonstrates hospitality, and faithful Muslims often provide the meal at no cost as an act of charity. In this photo, an iftar is celebrated on a narrow street in the Egyptian city of Cairo.
