Furir Barir istari Celebration in Sylhet

Furir Bari Iftari is the tradition among Muslims in the Sylhet region of giving Iftar (the fast-breaking evening meal) to the household of one's daughter's in-laws during the month of Ramadan.[1][2] The term comes from the Sylheti word Furi (daughter).[3]

The practice is not obligatory in Islam, but in-laws have come to expect it.[4][5] There have been incidents where a daughter's husband and in-laws have allegedly tortured her, driven her to suicide, or killed her, if her father has not given generously to them.[6][7][8]

Some commentators have criticized the custom as a superstition or an evil practice because it can be a mental, financial and social burden on a father who is poor.[9][10]
