Make the Most of Ramadan! |
Dear Community Member: As we enter the second ten days of Ramadan, we ask Allah (SWT) to grant us the strength to continue our Siyam, Qiyam, Sadaqa and other acts of worship with sincerity. |
Support YOUR Masjidمَّن ذَا ٱلَّذِى يُقْرِضُ ٱللَّهَ قَرْضًا حَسَنًۭا فَيُضَـٰعِفَهُۥ لَهُۥٓ أَضْعَافًۭا كَثِيرَةًۭ ۚ وَٱللَّهُ يَقْبِضُ وَيَبْصُۜطُ وَإِلَيْهِ تُرْجَعُونَ Who will lend to Allah a good loan which Allah will multiply many times over? It is Allah alone who decreases and increases wealth. And to Him you will all be returned. 2:245 Ramadan is the time to give, and every contribution, big or small, makes a difference. Start giving now, and inshallah continue throughout the month and the year to support YOUR MASJID. Our operational expenses fundraising target for this Ramadan is $500,000, and we aim to raise $300,000 for capital improvements.
To help reach these goals, we are hosting a Fundraising Night tomorrow (March 8th) after Isha prayer at the Masjid. The board chair and MCC representatives will address the community and provide additional details on our plans for 2025. We encourage you to attend and contribute generously for the sake of Allah (SWT). Zakat ul Fitr ReminderPlease remember to pay your Zakat ul Fitr before the Eid prayer. The amount for Ramadan 2025 has been set at $20 per person. As a reminder: Zakat ul Fitr is due on ALL individuals in a household including small children and the elderly. Zakat ul Fitr must be paid before March 25th to ensure timely distribution. After this date, we cannot guarantee the distribution before Eid. How To DonateDonations can be made via the following:
Taraweeh Attendance and ParkingA humble reminder to all of our brothers and sisters who intend on coming to the Masjid for Taraweeh. Please use the Sirocco Transit Park and Ride Parking Lot. The masjid parking lot and surrounding streets get very crowded and congested. Parking at the transit parking lot helps alleviate congestions by the masjid, gets you some extra steps (burn off that iftar AND get extra Ajr) and saves you time when leaving. Lastly, we remind parents to keep their children close to them during prayers for their own benefit and to minimize disturbances to other musalleen.
