A quarrel over meal times during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan likely sparked an arson attack that destroyed a German refugee shelter, said a report on Thursday quoting prosecutors. The huge blaze in the western city of Duesseldorf on Tuesday completely razed a hall that housed 282 male asylum seekers, mostly from Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan and North African countries, with 28 people suffering from smoke inhalation. Police said on Thursday they had detained five men, several of whom had stayed in the shelter using false identity details.
Two were suspected of the arson attack - a Moroccan and an Algerian, both aged 26 - and were remanded in custody by a judge.
One of the men had allegedly poured a flammable liquid onto a mattress and set it alight.

Witnesses reported that there had been recurring tensions between followers of different religions in the Red Cross-run facility.

I read that they started kicking off and torched the place because they were angry because nobody had woken them up to eat before sunrise...
