Indonesian Buddhists Step Out To Support Muslims In Ramadan Fast

Indonesian Muslims are having their iftar during the holy month of Ramadan at a temple in Jakarta, Indonesia, on March 26, 2024. As millions of people in Muslim-majority Indonesia observe the fasting month of Ramadan, members of the Buddhist community are extending their support and preparing iftar meals for those breaking their fast at dusk. Muslims comprise nearly 90 percent of Indonesia's population, but the multifaith nation officially recognizes six religions, including Buddhism, which has an estimated 2 million followers. Since Ramadan began, many Buddhist temples across the country have been extending support to their Muslim neighbors. They are handing out meal boxes around 5:30 p.m., right before sunset, hoping to reach the people who need their support the most. Each box consists of rice, sauteed vegetables, fried eggs, and either chicken or beef, all home-cooked. (Photo by Afriadi Hikmal/NurPhoto)
