Minister Matola fellowships with muslim MPs, Businessman in observing Iftaar
As one way of interacting with fellow Muslims, Minister of Energy, Ibrahim Matola, led a delegation of other Muslim ministers and members of parliament in observing Iftaar, organized by Businessman, the Managing Director of Sana Food Court, Rauf Chaudhry in Lilongwe.
The managing director decided to host Muslims, while sharing the little he has, considering that it is recommended in Islam, especially in the month of Ramadan, to break fast with others as it brings more blessings.
In his remarks, Matola, also a Sheikh, commended him saying the gesture reflects the beauty of Islam while referring to the Quranic verses.
“Regardless of the difference in political ideologies, financial and social status, Islamic rituals such as Iftaar, Eid, including the five daily prayers, bring everyone of us together,” he said.
Matola, therefore, encouraged his delegation to support and assist one another, regardless of their party affiliations, for the betterment of the people they serve and the country at large.
Muslims in Malawi have been fasting since the beginning of the month of Ramadan on March 11 and are expected to finish on April 9 or 10 this month of April depending on the sighting of the moon.
