Interfaith Iftar Held at State Capitol Building in Harrisburg, PA

 By Nate Feldman

On March 24, 2025, there was an interfaith Iftar meal held in the Main Rotunda of the State Capitol building in Harrisburg, PA.  The Iftar meal breaks the day-long fast Muslims do during the holy month of Ramadan where they abstain from eating, drinking, and other things from the morning prayer until the evening prayer.  

According to reports, it was the first time an Iftar meal was hosted at Pennsylvania's State Capitol building.   

The event brought together leaders and people of various faiths and included members of different political parties.
