Iftar Gathering At The 27th Night Of Ramadan In Jakarta Arab Village
Local residents are distributing kebuli rice for an iftar gathering on the 27th night of Ramadan in Kampung Arab, West Jakarta, Indonesia, on April 6, 2024. Since the 18th century, the local residents of Kampung Arab in Pekojan, West Jakarta, have been holding an annual iftar gathering on every 27th of Ramadan. Participants not only include locals but also those coming from other cities in West Java and Central Java. The highly-anticipated event can be seen on the streets around the hosting mosque. During the tradition, popular Middle Eastern dishes such as kebuli rice are being prepared. Uniquely, the tradition is held for men, while women are only allowed to hold the gathering at their homes. The tradition also allows them to meet with relatives and family members they haven't seen in a long time. (Photo by Afriadi Hikmal/NurPhoto)
