Ramazan and your Iftar

[Wasifmurad]

I eat Iftar made by my Mom and Sisters.  And its always delicious!   

How lucky boys are!


No work Just Play.

This is not true and so rude.


Boys also have to do some work. For example, buying things from the market etc etc.

Aisay hi chalta hai gharon main.

This is also, kahani mostly gharoun ki. . .

Speaking from experience as an elder sister. Qurat's brothers must be in their early teens. Boys who are growing up feel the need to assert themselves. In our society this usually takes the form of rudeness, non-cooperation, not doing assigned work etc. Sort of mental growing pains. A couple of years, and those same brothers of hers will be doting on her again.

Since he and I both work, our iftar is mostly broughten or at iftar parties we are inited to except for the 27th of Ramazan on which is a date fixed for iftar at our home. For the 27th I make plenty of things, some after sehr, some after returning from work. It is an iftar cum dinner thingy. The menu varies year by year. We haven't yet decided what it will be this year.

Greetings all;



We live in joint family with my in-laws. Apart from my husband's parents, his four brothers and two sisters are family. All five brothers are married. Iftar is a rota. The first of Ramazan my MIL makes the Iftar, then the eldest brother's five, then the wife of number two, and then me, (hubby is number 3 among the five), and so on. His sisters aren't married but they also make Iftar,so it is a neat arrangement.

Thank you all for sharing. More responses very welcome.

[Ulya Ehsen]

We prefer simple home made Iftar.

[Adeeba]

My bhabhi (brother';s wife) is in charge of the kitchen. She makes the Iftar at home, and there is something new every day. She is a marvellous cook.

[Maya Adhikari]

We get invited to Ifatr parties by our Muslim friends. I ma often surprised at the variety of stuff served

There's a friend of my Dad who is a Professor. Iftar at his home is especially a treat for the taste buds. They make more than a dozen delicacies for their annual Iftar party, which is always on the last Friday of Ramazan. The peole they invite are also a treat to watch and listen to. Proffesor Saheb has a great taste in friends too. I always look forward to going there, and haven't missed  a single Iftar at their place ever since Mom and Dad took me along the first time.

Our Iftars are either at home or at friends and relatives, except for the Chaand Raat. Dad takes the family out to Iftar and dinner at his favourite Pakistani restaurant here.  They serve absolutely delicious Pakistani cuisine.

[Amena Chaudhary]

Our Ifrars are very light. Fruit salad of seasonal fruits, a sherbet.


We have dinner about an hour and a half later and that is the usual stuff, unless we dine out, which is rare in Ramazan.

[Noreen]

We both work, so there are plenty of invites to Iftars, We also have an Iftar party at our place. On that day I pitch in with the preparation. |Otherwise it is my sisters-in-law who prepare the Iftar. There's variety in the menu, some days it is mostly fried stuff, other days some kind of sandwiches and some beverage. Dates are there daily and some kind of mixed fruit bowl.

Lovely topic Laila
 
 
 
Iftar at my home is dictated by the young ones. Yeh itnay chatoray hein keh Allah panaah.  They want something different every day. So every Ramazan is a refresher course in cooking for me.

We mostly prepare Iftar at home. My favourite thing on the table is Fruit Chat.

[Tahira]

Mom and Dad both work. I am the eldest, and I am studying. Mom usually brings home something on the way home from office. On holidays she and I make things at home, sometimes deep fried stuff like samosas or kachoris, at others dahi barray and chana or fruit chat. There also dates and fruit such as bananas and apples.

[Zaki]

We simply take dinner at Iftar. Most often it is the usual.

[Laila Akbar]

Thank you all for prospering my topic.
