Sister's Iftar: Leicester

Sister’s Iftar: Sharing Food, Faith & Serenity

Join us for a beautiful evening of sisterhood, reflection, and collective compassion in support of humanitarian causes around the world. Gather for a serene iftar, meaningful reminders, and an atmosphere of unity and purpose.

We are honoured to feature Shaykha Safia Shahid, a distinguished Islamic scholar who spent years studying in Syria and receiving ijaza in classical texts. With over 15 years of global public engagement, she has become a leading voice in faith, education, and women’s empowerment, and currently serves as Principal of the Women’s Muslim College.

We are also joined by Noor Harazeen, an international journalist known for her extraordinary resilience and courage. Noor reported live throughout the events of October 2023, delivering the world frontline coverage while navigating unimaginable hardship. Her powerful storytelling from hospitals and shelters highlighted the human impact of crisis with unmatched strength and dedication.

Come break your fast, connect with inspiring women, and be part of a night rooted in generosity, healing, and hope.
