In various cities, Muslims observing the holy month of Ramadan helped distribute meals to their communities in an act of service and kindness. During the holy month Muslims fast from food and beverages during the daylight hours, read the Holy Qur’an, work on strengthening their faith and increase their good deeds, such as feeding those in need.
In Chicago as in previous years, the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan gifted free meals to residents. His example inspires members of the Nation of Islam in various mosques and study groups across the country to participate and help to make our communities a decent and safe place to live.
The Fruit of Islam (F.O.I.) and M.G.T. and G.C.C. (Muslim Girls Training and General Civilization Class), the men and women of the Nation of Islam, worked cheerfully as they prepared and delivered meals. This outreach will continue throughout Ramadan.
The acts of kindness and service was met with a smile, and the Muslims’ presence was much appreciated and welcomed in the communities.
