Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Assalamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahu Wa Barakatuhu.
As we are about to reach the last 10 days of Ramadan, we praise and thank Allah swt for allowing us to experience this blessed month. We also pray that He accepts our fasting, forgive all our shortcomings and help us increase in taqwa.
We would like to remind you that Zakat ul Fitr is $20 per person and that it needs to be paid well before the end of Ramadan. You are welcome to drop your Zakat ul Fitr payment in the donation boxes at our local mosque or pay it online from MANAL website.
Please kindly note the following updates about the last 10 days of Ramadan and upcoming Eid arrangements:
- To minimize public health risks under ongoing pandemic, there will be no congregational Qiyam Al Layl at Masjid Al Noor. We advise everyone to please perform it at their homes with members of their own households. Only one or two of our imams will be allowed to perform it in person at the mosque and this will be live streamed from MANAL website for your convenience.
- The first day of Eid Al Fitr will insha'Allah be on Thursday, May 13.
- MANAL will insha'Allah organize 3 consecutive sessions of Eid prayers at Masjid Al Noor. The first 2 sessions will be for brothers only; and the last session will be for both sisters and brothers.
- The maximum capacity for each session will be as per public health regulations.
- Admission to the mosque for Eid prayers will be subject to online pre-registration.
- Only those who are older than 12 years of age and fulfil health & travel related criteria will be eligible to pre-register and attend the Eid prayers.
Online registration links, times and rules for Eid prayers will insha'Allah be e-mailed and posted at MANAL Website in the next few days. So, please stay tuned.
Jazakum Allahu Khairun,
MANAL Executive Committee
