In a touching show of unity, Expo City Dubai was the hub of harmony as citizens of different religious backgrounds came together for a special multi-faith Iftar hosted by the Community Development Authority (CDA). Religious figures, diplomats, and community leaders broke bread together in the spirit of tolerance and mutual respect during the holy month of Ramadan.
The event aimed to strengthen social cohesion in Dubai’s vibrant multicultural landscape. Guests included prominent figures from Islamic, Christian, Hindu, Sikh, and other faiths, all seated side by side under the iconic pavilions of Expo City. The evening resonated with messages of compassion, understanding, and the UAE’s vision of peaceful coexistence.
Representatives of different religions shared prayers and words of reflection before they broke their fast together, emphasizing shared values of charity, compassion, and oneness. Some diplomats commended Dubai for its efforts at interfaith dialogue and cooperation, saying that such efforts leave lasting impressions on the establishment of bridges between cultures.
The CDA reiterated that the Iftar was not merely a sign of common humanity but also a call to remember Dubai as a city of the world where individuals from all faiths can live in harmony. The event ended with cultural performances and a shared promise to continue upholding harmony among the community.
