Gallery: Ramadan in Detroit

Convention week falls within the Islamic holy month of Ramadan this year. During this period of spiritual reflection, Muslims abstain from eating and drinking during the day but break the fast after sundown with a meal known as iftar. In the Detroit suburb of Dearborn, families flock to a restaurant buffet in a modern spin on the centuries-old observance.
