Iftar
Iftar (Arabic: إفطار رمضان, romanized: Iftar Ramadan), also known as futoor (from فطور, fuṭūr, 'breakfast'), (Persian: روزهگشا, romanized: Roze Gosha), is the evening meal with which Muslims end their daily Ramadan fast at sunset. They break their fast at the time of the call to prayer (adhan) for the evening prayer. This is their second meal of the day; the daily fast during Ramadan begins immediately after the pre-dawn meal of suhur and continues during the daylight hours, ending with sunset with the evening meal of iftar.

Iftar
Iftar, refers to the evening meal when Muslims break their fast during the Islamic month of Ramadan. Iftar is one of the religious observances of Ramadan and is often done as a community, with people gathering to break their fast together. Iftar is done right after Maghrib time. Traditionally, three dates are eaten to break the fast, in the tradition of the prophet Muhammed, who broke his fast in this manner. Many Muslims believe that feeding someone iftar as a form of charity is very rewarding and that it was practiced by Prophet Muhammad. A H Qasmi provides this information for breaking the fast to say this prayer at the time of Iftar: according to the Majlis publication of South Africa:
