President Obama will host an iftar — the special evening meal observed during Ramadan — on Friday night in the White House dining room.
Obama participated in a similar gathering last year.
Celebrations like iftar dinners "remind us of the principles that we hold in common, and Islam's role in advancing justice, progress, tolerance and the dignity of all human beings," Obama wrote in a statement Wednesday. . . . .
