Reflections on the blessed month of Ramadan & Eid Prayer

Alhamdulillah this year's month of Ramadan presented all presented community members with opportunities to gather in our modest, yet beautiful masjid, and connect with each other and build bridges of brotherhoods and sisterhoods, through having Iftars & praying Taraweeh Prayers led by our beloved Sheikh Mostafa. It is abundantly clear that community members who frequent the Masjid, especially during the month of Ramadan, have shown a remarkable increase, and we're in the process of meeting this welcomed challenge by moving forward on building the new masjid prayer halls and associated facilities. Everyone is kindly requested to rise to the challenges presented by this blessed growth, and show respect and reverence to the masjid and to its code of conduct. Most specifically, everyone should be kind to the security company personnell and follow their directions, since they're contracted to secure the premisses and maximize the number of parking spaces available. Furthermore, all of us to do our best to be kind and considerate to our neighbors. Our beautiful religion requires this of us, and will be very helpful to us, should the City of Santa Clarita Planning Department requires us to formally solicit neighbors's input as part of our upcoming application process.

As for Eid AlFitr Prayer, Alhamdulillah we were able to manage ok, albeit the first prayer was pretty chaotic. It's estimated that over two thousand five hundred people have joined the Eid Prayers. This also speaks of Sanat Clarita Valley Muslim Community growth. If we want to continue to offer Eid Prayers for the entire community in one venue, we need to implement measures to avoid the situation we experienced this past Eid. Not only the venue manager was unhappy with us, many of the venue neighbors were very unhappy as well. Over the next couple of weeks we'll be discussing this issue with the other two SCV Masajid leadership, and hopefully come up with a workable solution, in time for Eid ALAdha.
