Dear Sisters and Brothers,
Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahu Wa Barakatuhu.
We pray that our province will continue to smoothly progress in its reopening plan and that Masjid Al Noor will insha’Allah be allowed to welcome its congregants soon.
Unfortunately, even if / when we reopen, we will not be able to use our mosque regularly or at full capacity due to public health restrictions.
Instead, we will be required to minimize all activity and accommodate only a limited number of congregants per session to not exceed:
1. The size of public gatherings allowed by provincial health authorities AND
2. The number of usable prayer spots after applying physical distancing rules
Also, to minimize health risks, YOU WILL NOT BE ELIGIBLE TO ATTEND THE MOSQUE IF, AS OF THE DAY OF YOUR PLANNED ATTENDANCE:
- You have been in contact with a person with confirmed or suspected COVID 19 case in the last 14 days, through your work setting or in your households.
- You or any of your household member experience any COVID 19 symptoms during the last 14 days (i.e. new or worsening cough, headache, fatigue or weakness, difficulty breathing, fever, muscle aches, sinus congestion, altered sense of smell or taste, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting or diarrhea)
- You have traveled outside the province in the last 14 days, have been directed by a health authority to self-isolate or had a close contact with a person who has recently returned to the province
- You are in a high-risk group through a chronic medical condition (i.e. heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, lung disease, kidney disease, liver disease, weak immune system due to transplant, cancer treatment or medication)
- You are younger than 12 years or older than 65 years
IF YOU DO NOT FALL IN ANY OF THE ABOVE CATEGORIES:
Then, please stay tuned for MANAL's next community announcement.
Through e-mail and MANAL Website (www.manal.ca), we will communicate important registration and other procedures you will need to follow.
Thanks for your patience, attention, and cooperation.
