As Salam Alaykum Warahmotullahi Wa barakaatuh
Ramadan Mubarak... as we have always done in the past few years during the holy month of RAMADAN by holding RAMADAN IFTAAR at this period. Nairaland Muslim Community hereby announce this year Ramadan Iftaar 2015 (SEASON 7)
BACKGROUND OF THE IFTAAR
As those that have been around for some time already know, Nairaland Muslim Ummah organize Iftaar (Joint Breaking of Fast) on chosen day(s) during Ramadan. The first edition started in 2009, hosted by JARUS at Mama Cass Restaurant, Ajose Adeogun, VI, Lagos. We had two editions in 2010, Mainland Edition at Sweet Sensation, Allen Avenue, Ikeja and the Island Edition hosted by Majoroller at Mama Cass, Awolowo Road, Ikoyi. The 2011 Edition also came up in two parts: Island at Mama Cass, Ajose Adeogun VI and Mainland @ Sweet Sensation, Allen Avenue, Ikeja – both bankrolled by Majoroller. The 2012 Edition (Season 4) was also in two places; one at Jarus residence in Ajah while the second was hosted by Majoroller at Surulere. The 2013 Edition (Season 5) was hosted by Jarus @ his residence in Ajah.
The 2014 Edition (Season 6) was co-hosted by hrmkz, thirty and Dynamo1 and was held at Araromi Central Mosque, Gbagada, Lagos. The last year edition was assumed to be the biggest IFTAAR we would ever held with over 50 Nairalanders in attendance.
SEASON 7: 2015
This year (2015) Ramadan is going gradually and Insha Allah, we are having Season 7 of Nairalnders' Ramadan Iftar. Bearing in mind that it is better held on a weekend, this year Iftaar will however hold on Sunday, 5th July, 2015

PROGRAMME
Assembling will start by 3pm at the chosen venue and lasts till after break of fast and moghrib, or we wait till 8pm for Ishai. Programmes lined up for the event include: opening remarks by the moderator(s); faces behind the IDs(introduction); general discussions; short lecture; breaking of fast with fruits; main menu etc. Its going to be fun, Insha Allah. People that attended past editions will tell you.
Muslim Nairalanders in other parts of Nigeria and outside can also plan to organize their own at their locations on this thread.
MODS: Sissie and Mukina2 should please help in making sure that this thread hit the front page as early as possible and also, assist in ensuring that this thread make it to the front page every Friday as well, in order to create more awareness for this programme, so that it wouldn’t be like last year when some Nairaland Muslims said they are not aware of the programme on-time. Lets encourage more Muslims to join this thread and also participate actively too.
Let the planning, deliberation and preparation start now!
May Almighty Allah accept it has an act of Ibadah and spare our lives to witness many more Ramadan in good health (Ameen).
