PLATES OF PIETY: Upholding the spirit of Ramadan, places around the city transform into settings for open-for-all iftars. In large congregations, people from all walks of life sit and dine together. Platters of food are shared by groups of people, sitting and eating together as one; no separate plates, no mark of class distinctions. Indeed, in this communal spirit of togetherness, Ramadan is best celebrated. Photo: Anisur Rahman.
