Ana Masry’s Iftar Brings Together All Segments of Society

In the spirit of unity and compassion, the city of Qena witnessed a heartwarming community Iftar organized by Ana Masry Association, led by Member of Parliament Naglaa Bakhoum, who also serves as the association’s chairperson. Under the banner of “Iftar of Love”, the event gathered 600 people, including sanitation workers, people with disabilities, exemplary mothers, community leaders, and both Muslim and Christian families.

The gathering honored 200 sanitation workers—everyday heroes who serve the community tirelessly, often without recognition. Another 200 guests were people with disabilities (the differently-abled), whose presence highlighted the state’s deep commitment to inclusion and care, under the leadership of President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi.

A special Iftar was also held for 200 mothers from Al-Marashda village, a community that has seen remarkable development through Egypt’s presidential initiative “Decent Life (Hayah Karima)”, coinciding with Mother’s Day celebrations.

In the spirit of “God is Love”, Ana Masry Association also hosted a massive Iftar bringing together 700 individuals from various sectors—executive, popular, and community leaders, Muslims and Christians alike—reaffirming the unbreakable unity of the Egyptian people. The event coincided with the anniversaries of the 10th of Ramadan Victory and the glorious October War, when Egypt’s armed forces reclaimed the beloved land of Sinai.

Additionally, to honor the dedicated young volunteers who contribute to the association’s development activities, Ana Masry organized an Iftar for more than 170 youth, fostering friendship, cooperation, and a stronger spirit of volunteerism.

MP Naglaa Bakhoum emphasized that the aim of the Ramadan Iftar went beyond sharing a meal. It was a sincere message of appreciation for every individual who contributes—whether a community leader, sanitation worker, exemplary mother, or volunteer—each playing a vital role in building a better society.

She added: “We wanted to say thank you to those who work hard all year long, to tell them they are always in our thoughts, and to offer them, even once, a gesture of gratitude. The participation of people with disabilities brought a special joy, especially in seeing the happiness on the faces of the children—whose smiles were the real celebration for all of us
