A large crowd flocked to the Baitul Hameed Mosque in Chino at sunset last Saturday to celebrate an interfaith dinner the same day 25 rallies were held around the country to protest Sharia law as a threat to society.

The dinner, called Iftar, celebrates the end of the fast during Ramadan where Muslims abstain from eating and drinking until sunset.
