Sports have played a pivotal role in bridging the gap between Muslim communities and the rest of the world and the Ramadan wishes from some of the biggest footballing clubs in the world are another proof of its success.
Chelsea and Brighton, the two Premier League clubs, have already announced that they will hold Iftar at their respective stadiums this month to further the sense of trust between Muslims and the sports bodies.
Premier League also announced that it will observe a break in play during Ramadan to help Muslim players break their fast during matches.
