London – For the first time in the thousand-year history of Windsor Castle’s State Apartments, an iftar was hosted, marking a significant step towards interfaith harmony and social unity. The event saw the participation of 350 Muslims, who gathered in St. George’s Hall—a space usually reserved for state guests. Before the iftar, the call to prayer (Adhan) was recited at Windsor Castle, setting a historic precedent. The gathering brought together members of the Muslim community, distinguished guests, and religious leaders from various faiths to break their fast collectively.

Following this groundbreaking event at the royal palace, the UK House of Commons also hosted an iftar dinner for the first time in British history, with Prime Minister Keir Starmer in attendance. The event saw the participation of British Members of Parliament, community leaders, religious figures, and members of the British Muslim community. During the dinner, the Adhan and recitation from the Holy Quran took place in the presence of the Prime Minister.

Addressing the Muslim community before the recitation, Prime Minister Keir Starmer highlighted the significance of Ramadan and acknowledged the challenges faced by the Muslim community, particularly in light of the ongoing war in Gaza. He emphasized the UK’s commitment to ensuring that aid reaches those in need in Gaza.

These iftar dinners at the British Royal Palace and House of Commons were not just symbolic meals but a practical effort to promote a society where different religions, cultures, and traditions coexist with mutual respect and harmony. The reverberation of the Adhan within the walls of these historic institutions and the collective breaking of the fast with dates sent a strong message of religious tolerance and unity.

Adding to this momentous occasion, a widely shared image of King Charles and Queen Camilla personally packing dates for the iftar conveyed a powerful global message of inclusivity. This act was not merely ceremonial; it demonstrated their genuine appreciation for religious diversity, Islamic values, and the sentiments of the Muslim community. King Charles has long been an advocate of interfaith harmony, and his participation in this initiative further underscored his commitment to fostering unity among different faiths.

The iftar gatherings at Windsor Castle and the House of Commons, along with the Royal Family’s gesture of solidarity, go beyond symbolism—they represent a profound message that people of different religions and cultures can walk together in mutual respect and understanding.
