Minnesota mosques invite non-Muslims during Ramadan

Fifteen Minnesota mosques are opening their doors to non-Muslims during the holy month of ramadan

Fifteen Minnesota mosques are opening their doors to non-Muslims during this holy month, inviting folks for an evening meal and a chance to ask any questions about the Muslim life.

Many people attended the Ramadan dinners and about 40 percent of them had never spoken to a Muslim.

According to reports, the project was tested with limited success a decade ago; when it was offered on different dates but coordinating the dinner with the month of Ramadan dramatically boosted interest by both mosques and the public.
