* Iftar is held on many days at UQ Multi-faith Centre

* Muslims like you donate money for the daily Iftar because the Prophet (s.a.w) said that by doing so you get the reward of every person’s fast! Donating for one day Iftar can get you the reward of over a 100 people’s Ramadan fast of the day!

* Please click here for details about donating or attending Iftar.
