At Malaysia's Ramadan bazaars, customers line up in the late afternoon to choose dishes for the meal that breaks the fast. A news-agency photograph dated 20 March 2025 records people queuing to buy iftar food at the Sri Sinar Ramadan Bazaar in Kuala Lumpur.
Among stalls with different aromas, shoppers wait both for their turn and for sunset. The purchasing line becomes the final interval before food reaches the family table.
