I just finished writing "Ramadan stinking month" post that I cam across a Persian blog called Close-Up (persian language) with fascinating, yet depressing photos and story of poor people who line up in front of a mosque to get some soup during Ramadan.

As I wrote in other post this tradition, to give food to strangers called Nazr and they call the food Nazri, one might say a good deed but I call it hand out. In these photos the line is very long and people are very poor, they ask for more soup every time they reach to the man who shares it.


Most of the time they empty their dishes hoping to get some more soup in a next round:

If one have adequate food to eat would they go and beg for food? Or even for more?! What I see here is a group of people cut off from huge wealth of Iran and made them to beg for soup and yet they call it Nazr, good deed, a Ramadan practice to shatter people’s dignity and humiliate their soul, if there is any left out.
Probably now you know why I abhor this mass indoctrination and am in fight with all these religious traditions that enslaves people.
