Ehtiram Raza Khan and his wife Huma Anwar share with us this picture of their son Shahi Raza Khan waiting for the Iftar to begin.

"I take the privilege of sharing the snap of our 11 year old son Shahi, waiting for Iftar on his first Roza on July 14, 2013. We were apprehensive that he would not be able to sustain in such heat but by the grace of Allah he did not complain a bit about thirst and hunger. May Allah accept his and everyone's Rozas and bless us and the country with peace and tranquility.
