GUMSA was established in 1968, it is one of the largest societies on the university campus as well as being the oldest Muslim student organisation in Scotland and one of the oldest in the United Kingdom.
context_section_description: GUMSA holds a yearly iftaar during the Islamic month of Ramadan. The iftaar has built up notoriety in recent years and has become the largest gathering of Muslims for the breaking of their fast in Scotland. The event is free to attend and is not limited to students or GUMSA members, with general members of the public outnumbering students. The leftover food is often donated to a local homeless shelter. In 2017 the event was attended by around 400 people. (See picture).
