Small but mighty: Colombia’s Muslim community celebrates Ramadan
In Colombia, where less than 0.2% of the population is Muslim, a diverse community of 85,000-100,000 is observing Ramadan. From converts to immigrants from places like Pakistan and Lebanon, they're building mosques and cultural centers, with cities like Medellin now having five mosques. Despite being a small minority, they celebrate their varied backgrounds through shared Iftar meals, featuring dishes from Moroccan to Colombian cuisine, fostering unity in their growing community.
