    Maj. Gen. Hamad bin Ali Al Attiyah, Qatar military chief of staff, greets guests prior to an evening fast-breaking meal during Ramadan, Islam's holy month, in Doha, Qatar, Aug. 25. Over 400 Muslims were in attendance; mainly members of the Qatari military. Soon after hundreds of brief introductions, sunset was announced over a loud speaker system. Without delay, each Muslim was offered dates, milk, water and tea – a leisurely end to a day-long fast. "Iftar," is in Arabic word referring to the light meal Muslims eat after sunset.
