Iftar is the fast-breaking meal eaten by Muslims during the fasting month of Ramadan immediately after sunset. Muslims around the world celebrate Ramadan by praying during the night time and abstaining from eating, drinking, and sexual acts during the period between sunrise and sunset. Ramadan is the ninth month in the Islamic calendar and it is believed that the revelation of the first verse in the Koran was during its last 10 nights. (Photo by Khaled Elfiqi/EPA/EFE)
