Montreal’s Muslim community celebrates Ramadan without restrictions
Over the coming month, Muslims will fast from sunrise to sunset, breaking their fast with a shared meal. They will also pray multiple times through the day.“For most of us, the past two years has basically become the normal,” says Iman Raza Shah. “We are used to entering a building and keeping distant and having limitations, so this is the first year we have none of that.”Last year, Quebec was still under a curfew, making it difficult for many Muslims to pray at the mosque.
Although Ramadan is also a time of individual reflection, for Ali Raza, a member of the Centre Islamique Ahmadiyya, being able to pray with his community means a lot.
