Brookes Union and the Multifaith Chaplaincy invite you to our Community Iftar. This is be an opportunity for Brookes students and staff to come together for an evening of conversation and reflection in the spirit of Ramadan.
At Brookes Union, we believe in the inclusion of all our diverse communities, encompassing all faiths and cultures, and work towards celebrating this within our calendar of annual events. This is a multifaith community gathering open to people of any religion or culture, so you do not need to fast, join in with the prayers, or observe Ramadan to attend this event. All food served will be halal and suitable for vegetarians & you may request a seat at a women-only table if you prefer.
If you’ve never been to an iftar before, you can expect to hear the Call to Prayer after which you will be invited to eat a date and drink a small amount of water with everyone breaking their fast. For those who wish to pray, or listen to the prayers, we will provide a dedicated prayer space, with private space for men and women, and nearby washing facilities. After prayers, you will be served buffet-style food.
