Three LA-based Muslim leaders share their stories about what it means to fast from dawn to sunset during Ramadan amidst a pandemic. Rida Hamida brings people together to fight hate one halal taco at a time for #TacoTrucksatEveryMosque through her non profit LatinoMuslimUnity. Imam Jihad Saafir preaches to his community through Zoom for his IslahLA lectures. And Dr. Qaziruns his medical practice while finding time to spend with his young children. For Rida, “Ramadan is about celebrating who we are as Muslims, it’s about service, taking care of our neighbors and our souls.”
