Anyone who has lived through conflict knows the instinct to find safety in a room with no windows. It’s a conditioned place of shelter, waiting and – strangely – community, too. As part of our cover story @minaalsheikhly , @wassim_bou_malham , @dimasheikhly , @chefhalawa , and @musakhalfan check in on fear, proximity, and the quiet ways people endure.

Every Ramadan reminds me how blessed we are. Blessed to gather. Blessed to share a table. Blessed to be part of a community. People from different walks of life, sitting side by side, sharing food, laughter, and stories. For a few hours, we slow down… and remember what truly matters. That’s the magic of Iftar. The Iftars are on 🌙

A delicious recap from our Iftar Supper Club Collaboration between @chef_margaritav and @chefhalawa
