Bangsamoro Humanitarian Aid Inc.

The international Jurists Union in cooperation with Maussasah Alkhairiya sponsors Iftar (Free Food Breaking of Fast) for the Bangsamoro in some selected Barangay in Cotabato City this Ramadhan Fasting starting last April 3, 2022 corresponding to Ramadhan 1, 1443. The iftar was arranged into four-station sites, station number 1 is in Purok Durian, Mother Barangay Bagua, Cotabato City where more than 100 people are attending the iftar every day. 

The second station is in Purok Palmera, Mother Barangay Bagua, Cotabato City. Similarly, the iftar was attended by more than 100 people also daily. The virtue of giving iftar to a fasting person can relate to the following hadith. It was narrated that Zayd ibn Khaalid al-Juhani said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “Whoever gives iftaar to one who is fasting will have a reward like his, without that detracting from the reward of the fasting person in the slightest.” Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 807; Ibn Maajah, 1746. Classed as saheeh by Ibn Hibaan, 8/216 and by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Jaami, 6415. 

The two other stations were done in the municipality of Sultan Mastura in Maguindanao province. Specifically, station 3 and station 4 are in Barangay Kirkir, Sultan Mastura. The iftar was attended by more than 100 people. There were 70 to 80 people who attended the iftar since it was started on the first day of Ramadhan. May Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta Allah Rewards those who share their blessing for this iftar.
