اللَّهُمَّ اِنِّى لَكَ صُمْتُ وَبِكَ امنْتُ [وَعَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْتُ] وَعَلَى رِزْقِكَ اَفْطَرْتُ
O Allah! I fasted for You and I believe in You [and I put my trust in You] and I break my fast with Your sustenance
While breaking the fast, more than 140 Muslim professionals in NYC recited the dua (prayer) as they gathered for Iftar arranged by New York Chapter of the Council for the Advancement of Muslim Professionals (CAMP-NY), on September 5, 2008.
CAMP is a not-for-profit organization for Muslim professionals, based in North America. It provides professional and social networking opportunities to Muslim community through educational, social and intellectual activities.
Zeba Iqbal is CAMP International’s Vice Chair, and the officers of CAMP’s New York Chapter are Mariam Mohaideen (President), Aasia Idris (Treasurer), Uzma Kaleem (Secretary), Durre Hanif (External Affairs).
The iftar was arranged at Al-Diwan restaurant. The scrumptious Lebanese food and generous hospitality (thanks to CAMP-NY officers and Al Diwan’s staff) made the evening memorable for most of us.
