“I’m fasting today with the Muslim community to learn and share the experience.
We started at 4:15 am this morning at the Bramalea Islamic Cultural Centre with suhoor (pre-dawn meal) and will end the day at sunset with iftar to break our fast at the Jame Makki Masjid.
Join us.”
— Mayor Patrick Brown, Bramalea Islamic Cultural Centre
We will be fasting on Wednesday! Join us. Wake up at dawn, eat something, drink water, then refrain from food and drinks all day while staying positive and mindful. Join us to break your fast at 8:06 pm at Jame Makki Masjid. #ramadan #FastWithMayorBrown pic.twitter.com/pbbAyZBKAf

Thank you for fasting with the community every year and partaking in a piritual and physical cleansing . Great to see you in the community at a time when the community stands in prayer seeking the Night or Power. May the day be blessed

It is really meaningful when we see elected officials engage in this kind of activity. @patrickbrownont has always led the way in actually taking action – not just words – to create a community where everyone feels that they are included and belong.
Hope your day is going well! https://t.co/gBVBtptXmR— Nawaz Tahir (@ntahir2015) April 19, 2023
