Dubai KMCC - a helping hand for the needy
Iftar followed by religious lectures and classes.
The Dubai Kerala Muslim Cultural Centre’s (KMCC) iftar tent in Al Baraha area in Dubai was popular with labourers and low-waged workers during the holy month of Ramadan. They come in hundreds every day to the air conditioned tent to end their fast after a long and hard day, especially with the temperature reaching up to 50 degrees.
Before iftar, religious lectures and classes were arranged. People from various nationalities sat downn for iftar together. Most of the days, special guests were invited, along with KMCC office bearers, to join them for iftar.
Often we saw that the number of people who came exceeded the expected numbers — some people were accommodated outside the tent with special seating arrangements for iftar.
