BARCELONA (Reuters) â With COVID-19 restrictions preventing Barcelonaâs Islamic population from celebrating Ramadan at the usual indoor venues, a Catholic church has offered up its open-air cloisters for Muslims to eat and pray together.
Every evening between 50 and 60 Muslims, many of them homeless, stream into the centuries-old stone passages of the Santa Anna church, where volunteers offer a hearty meal of home-cooked food.
âWe are all the same⦠If you are Catholic or of another religion and I am Muslim, thatâs fine,â said Hafid Oubrahim, a 27-year old Moroccan of Berber descent who attends the dinners.
